Contention announce debut album ‘Artillery From Heaven’

CONTENTION have announced their debut album!

Titled Artillery From Heaven, the upcoming album from the Florida-based metallic hardcore band is their debut full-length album, and is scheduled to be released in May this year, via DAZE.

The upcoming debut album was produced by John Howard [CASEY JONES, YASHIRA] at War House Studio in Gainesville, Florida.

Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a new song from the upcoming album; In The Land Of Nod. Speaking about the new song, vocalist Cosmo says, “this track is about watching friends and loved ones succumb to their addictions. If you’ve experienced this, you understand the feelings of betrayal and powerlessness I wrote about. Having my life turned upside down over and over by other people’s addictions has made me very wary of associating with addicts of any kind. If that sounds callous to you, then count yourself lucky you haven’t had the same experiences.”
