Groove-driven heavy rock band based in Utrecht, The Netherlands, Hell Valley High, signs with Argonauta Records to release their debut full-length album in 2024.

Says the band: “We’re thrilled to join Argonauta Records, a label with a very transparent way of working where we feel right at home. We can’t wait to add something special to the great track record of killer releases from a very diverse and international roster.”

Along with the signing announcement, the band unveils its first single/lyric video entitled »Blameless«, now streaming on Argonauta Records’ official YouTube channel!

Band comments: “We’re very excited to finally unleash our first music upon mankind. »Blameless« has been with us since our start in 2021 and turned out to be a signature Hell Valley High banger. It originated in the early stages of the band but came to fruition when we completed our line-up. We love playing the song live and judging from the audience feedback, we’re not alone in that! From the opening grooves to the catchy choruses and the climax at the end; »Blameless« is the perfect example of what Hell Valley High is all about. Tim van Doorn (Big Dog Recordings) did a great job making it sound really dirty and heavy.”
