Svart Records sets February 22nd, 2019 as the international release date for Demon Head's highly anticipated third album, Hellfire Ocean Void, on CD and vinyl LP formats.
Hellfire Ocean Void is composed by eight songs that
unfold themselves effortlessly perfect in the tension between a delicate
sense of composition and the uncompromising urgency with which the five
musicians deliver the performance of each song. Mournful melodies of
unearthly dimensions are played on piano and orchestrated with the use
of classic rock instrumentation - electric guitars, bass, and
drums. Dark and mystical chord progressions, sporadic guitar solos,
chaotic arpeggio synthesizers, and the prophetic words of M.F.L are held
together by the solid drum beats of J.W. Ambient recordings of acoustic
instruments are accompanied by tape manipulation, which slowly develops
into a haunting soundspace, showing B.G.N's skills as an avant-garde
composer. Guitar leads morph into the breathtaking improvisations of
T.G.N as the band's energetic center of bassist M.F leaves nothing to be
questioned.
The writing, recording, mixing, and production was all done during the winter 2017-2018 by Demon Head in their own analog studio. Isolating themselves in the frozen countryside by the coast of Denmark and having no studio time limitations made it possible to encounter the recording studio as a sixth member, enabling them to produce the album with sincere curiosity and perfection. The only other person involved was the legendary producer Flemming Rasmussen (Metallica, Morbid Angel, Mercyful fate, etc.) who mastered the album in Sweet Silence Studios.
With Hellfire Ocean Void, Demon Head have created a masterpiece in contemporary rock music. As any other truly original music, it is difficult to draw any similarities, since the music seems to hint at nothing but its own integrity: an integrity that is based upon the insight that Demon Head gains from loving and accepting the many clichés and traditions that follow from playing rock music - and from that foundation moves far into the unknown, into the darkness and into our hearts.
First track and preorder info to be revealed shortly. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:
