Track # 5 of the new album, “The Path” surprises the listeners with different time signatures and drums played against the beat of the guitar riffs. Solid riffs mix with evocative melodies to create a song of absolute qualitative depth.
“Abyss of Mankind” is a transformative Heavy Metal album, a project that gestated for over a decade, which sees HARDRAW triumphantly shine by delivering a powerful musical narrative that reflects their growth and resilience.
The album comprises of 8 tracks, each attesting to the band's artistic maturity and collaborative synergy. HARDRAW's sonic palette has expanded with the enlistment of new members, showcasing a dynamic blend of styles that range from bone-crushing riffs to intricate melodies, all enveloped in a dark atmosphere that’s filled with intensity and power.
The album’s closing track deserves special mention as it’s dedicated to the memory of late Mark "The Shark" Shelton (MANILLA ROAD); a truly emotional tribute that words alone cannot describe. In this homage to the lost (but not forgotten) Heavy Metal icon, two legendary vocalists, Gianni Nepi (DARK QUARTERER) and Harry “The Tyrant” Conklin (TITAN FORCE, SATAN’S HOST, JAG PANZER, CLOVEN HOOF), join forces with HARDRAW to offer an exceptional performance that helps elevate this heartfelt and powerful tribute even higher. The track becomes a poignant moment on the album, celebrating the legacy of a true metal hero.
“Abyss of Mankind” will be out on CD and Digital on April 5th and this will coincide with the band’s appearance at the upcoming “Open the Gates II” Festival to be held in Nicosia, Cyprus (April 5-6). Festival event here: https://www.facebook.com/events/359977229834024
