In Hearts Wake announce new album ‘Incarnation’
IN HEARTS WAKE have announced a new album!
Titled Incarnation, the upcoming album from the Australian metalcore band is the follow-up to 2020’s Kaliyuga, and is scheduled to be released in July this year, via UNFD. This news follows the recent bittersweet announcement of long-time bassist and clean vocalist Kyle Erich‘s departure and single Farewell.
Speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist Jake Taylor says, “Incarnation is the shadow counterpart and sequel to the band’s debut album Divination, with each song inspired by the meaning and ideals of a particular Major Arcana Tarot card. There are 22 Major Arcana Tarot cards in every deck and 11 tracks on each record, bringing the vision to completion 12 years later. But much like a coin with two sides, cards flipped upside down deliver the reversed meaning. Polarised in every way, Incarnation explores the dark underbelly to mirror and stand diametrically opposite to Divination.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, IN HEARTS WAKE have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Hollow Bone (plɹoʍ ǝɥʇ).
Speaking about the new single, the band says, “going through a death-of-sorts with Kyle having left the band, Hollow Bone became our reclamation anthem for the band to live on. Since high school we’ve given everything and we weren’t about to give up. Not yet… Picking up the microphone as a group, together we delivered a melodic chorus for the first time. We used actual bones as percussive instruments – symbolic of death’s transformation. This track acting as our stake in the ground. What would you die for?!”
