Castle announce new album ‘Carrie Chains’
CASTLE have announced a brand new album!
The US/Canadian heavy doom outfit have revealed that their new album, Carrie Chains, is set for release on September 4th via Hammerheart Records. The upcoming record follows on from 2024’s Evil Remains and sees CASTLE refining their riff-driven sound, drawing from classic heavy metal influences while pushing their songcraft into more anthemic territory.
Speaking on the creation of the album, guitarist Mat Davis shares, “it was like exercising a muscle, having new perspectives…. reaching back into the past and re-imagining the future – we tapped back into the early days of CASTLE‘s sound and inspiration and came out with a record sounding somewhere between In Witch Order and Blacklands.”
Singer/bassist Liz Blackwell further comments, “we spent so many years on the road in the early days of CASTLE, we’d riff on song ideas through night drives and backstage hangs… a lot of the song ideas like Truckgrinder, Carry Chains and Goat Vision all originated back then and have the classic theme of the underdog rising up against all odds, including the albums main character, Carrie Chains – it’s a great inspiration in these times.”
Coinciding with the announcement, the band have released the album’s lead single, Carry Chains, alongside an official music video.
