Today, UK metal crushers HERIOT have unveiled their mighty new single “Siege Lord,” streaming everywhere now via Century Media. Recorded with Josh Middleton (Sylosis, Architects) and GRAMMY Award-winning Will Putney (END, Fit For An Autopsy, Better Lovers), the song melds together heavy metal, metallic hardcore, and sludge to create a vast sound. The double-vocal attack of Jake Packer and Debbie Gough is all-conquering with Erhan Alman (guitar) and Julian Gage (drums) building an earth-shattering intensity. The band adds: “‘Siege Lord’ is a track we feel expands on our previous releases, leaning heavily into the more metallic elements of our sound. It’s a visceral yet atmospheric track. Lyrically, ‘Siege Lord’ contemplates the fragility of soul searching.” You can stream “Siege Lord” HERE and watch the grimey, yet striking video for the song HERE. HERIOT’s first single of 2024 continues their ascendancy as the pre-eminent new force in the UK heavy scene and beyond. “Siege Lord” follows late 2023’s “Soul Chasm,” the two glimpses of new material following their signing with Century Media. Since debuting with their 2022 EP, Profound Morality (Church Road Records), HERIOT have been been grabbing attention with their weaponising metallic sludge and hardcore, unholy levels of distortion, speed and gut-punching talent. The band’s rise in the UK lead to a sold out headline tour and performances to packed tents at festivals like Download and 2000trees. This summer HERIOT will hit the festival circuit again, followed by a European tour at the end of the year alongside Fit For An Autopsy, Sylosis, and Darkest Hour. Dates below. Heriot is Jake Packer – Vocals/Bass, Debbie Gough – Vocals/Guitar, Erhan Alman – Guitar, and Julian Gage – Drums. | |||||||||||||||||||
