Summerlands Premiers Full Stream of Debut Album

Summerlands Premiers Full Stream of Debut Album Old-school heavy metal newcomers Summerlands have just premiered a full stream of their forthcoming self-titled debut album, which can be heard here: Summerlands Stream Formed by an all-star cast of scene veterans, heavy metal force Summerlands burst out of the proverbial gates with a fully-formed sound on their Guardian demo in 2014. The band’s output is one that calls to mind the most learned heavy metal ancestors and the most forward-thinking newcomers: one that sounds old but feels new. Now, Relapse Records is proud to join forces with Summerlands for the release of their mammoth self-titled debut full-length of classic heavy metal. Inspired by the timeless, guitar-driven sound of the ‘70s and ‘80s, Summerlands features former Hour Of 13/Atlantean Kodex vocalist Phil Swanson as well as renowned producer Arthur Rizk (Inquisition, Power Trip, Pissgrave) on guitars and behind the boards. Powerful guitar riffs and galloping rhythms meld flawlessly together with soaring vocals and pristine production to create strong, hook-filled, moody anthems. This is a new wave of American heavy metal at its finest. Additionally, Sumerlands features artwork by the legendary Jos. A. Smith, the renowned and prolific artist who originally created the Bathory goat in the ‘70s.
