Demon Head announce new album ‘Through Holes Shine The Stars’

DEMON HEAD have announced a new album!

Titled Through Holes Shine The Stars, the upcoming album from the Danish heavy metal band is the follow-up to 2021’s Viscera, and is scheduled to be released in September this year, via Svart Records.

The eight songs were written collectively during several concentrated sessions from 2019-2022 and recorded entirely by the band themselves from October 2022 to March 2023 in their own studios in Copenhagen and the west coast of Ireland. Guitarist, vocalist and multi-instrumentalist producer, Birk Gjerlufsen Nielsen expands on the process, “this long and careful process has allowed us to reach a balance between structural precision and artistic expansion, melodic simplicity, and compositional depth. It feels like we’ve uncovered every possibility within each of these songs without losing track of the original nerve.”

Vocalist and lyricist Marcus Ferreira expands on the collective drive behind the work on this record, “these eight new songs are like a prism of despair through which we try to convey a state of liminality, where moments of faint hope urgency rub shoulders with bursts of surreal and playful absurdity, all cast against the background of despair as void as the night sky through which these stars shine.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, DEMON HEAD have released a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Every Flatworm.
