Havok announce new album ‘Conformicide’
Us thrash metallers HAVOK have announced a brand new record!
The upcoming record, titled Conformicide, is the band’s fourth record and comes four years after 2013’s Unnatural Selection. Speaking about the record, vocalist/guitarist David Sanchez says, “Conformicide is our most dynamic, heavy, thoughtful, musical, and sonically-crushing album so far. All four members feel that this is the best HAVOK album to date. There are a lot of “truth bombs” being dropped on this record and the music absolutely rips! Conformicide is faster and way angrier than Unnatural Selection, on this album, the music is very layered and dynamic and the lyrics say a lot about the current state of the world.” Lead guitarist Reece Scruggs adds, “This album swings for the fences in every way. Sonically stunning, technically proficient and lyrically pissed, we’ve never been represented at our best until this moment in time. We cannot wait for the world to react to Conformicide.”
