Bloody Hammers announce new album ‘The Summoning’

BLOODY HAMMERS have announced a new album!

The upcoming album, titled The Summoning, is the fifth album from the US duo and is scheduled to be released in June this year.

Speaking about the upcoming album, lead vocalist/guitarist/bassist Anders Magna says, “when I think about my earliest influences, the horror film genre is just as important as musical influences and they’re all fuzed together in my brain from childhood. When I was a kid, there was a show called Shock Theatre that aired late at night on our local WGHP network in the early 80s. They played Dr. Phibes Rises Again, Children Shouldn’t Play With Dead Things and weirdness like that. Around the same time slot, over on channel 61, there was a music video show that played Ozzy, IRON MAIDEN, ALICE COOPER and all those artists our satanic panicked local churches and teachers were freaking out about… and forbidding. I tried to put myself back in that time when I wrote The Summoning. In my mind, it’s a tribute musically and lyrically to those magical macabre memories. Back when paranoid adults thought kids were brainwashed and likely worshiping Satan in the woods… good times!”
