Hail The Sun announce new album ‘Divine Inner Tension’
HAIL THE SUN have announced a new album!
Titled Divine Inner Tension, the upcoming album from the progressive alternative band is the follow-up to 2021’s New Age Filth, and is scheduled to be released in August this year, via Rude Records and Equal Vision Records.
Speaking about the upcoming new album, vocalist Donovan Melero says, “this is the first album we’ve written that didn’t come exclusively from a place of suffering or pain. Sadness, heartbreak and nihilism all inspire, but during the pandemic, there was a big shift, and this is more about retelling the story – retelling stories about everyday perceptions. Everything comes from within, so I thought that maybe I don’t have to suffer to feel inspired.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Chunker. The new song is the second song to be released from the upcoming album, following on from Mind Rider, which was released back in January.
Speaking about the new song, the band says, “what we give out is what we get back. The confidence we have in our abilities to overcome and thrive is endless. Admittedly, doubt can fuel this confidence from non-believers, as trust is intimidating. It is threatening. And this can feel good. However, when spite lingers around, it only poisons the person harbouring it, and we have been those people several times. Letting it go aligns with the initial cause of putting out what we want back, to begin with. Thus we grow.”
