Thornhill announce new album ‘Heroine’
THORNHILL have announced a new album!
Titled Heroine, the upcoming album from the Australian metalcore band is the follow-up to 2019’s The Dark Pool, and is scheduled to be released in June this year, via UNFD.
Speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist Jacob Charlton says, “I realised you’re not just singing your lyrics, you’re emoting. You’re conveying a message or a feeling not only through vocals, but through performance. Ethan (McCann, guitar/production) really brought that vibe to the instrumentation, and I was left thinking, ‘oh, I can’t just sing or scream over this…. what can I do to match that energy he’s presented here, but in a way that people haven’t heard it in a metal setting?’ I realised I needed my own character. I needed to bring that Elvis-y confidence and emotion to my performance to really be able to bring people into the world of what I’m singing about.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Hollywood. The new song is the third single to be released from the upcoming album; following on from the release of Arkangel and Casanova.
Speaking about the new song, Charlton adds, “the premise of this song follows a protagonist, who is coming to terms with being in love with another girl he’s just met while still being in a relationship that has been slowly falling apart around him. This one in a million encounter with someone who has changed his entire world in a matter of glances is the theme we follow throughout the song until he finally builds the courage to say it out loud. He makes little decisions, puts his current partner in a bad light to make himself feel like he’s in the right and calls her names as she begs him to announce his true feelings for someone he’s met on their trip to Hollywood.”
