Inherus announce new heavy genre-fusing album »Beholden« to be released on May 26th via Hypnotic Dirge Records!
Hudson Valley, New York based post-metal act Inherus is gearing up to release their debut album »Beholden« on May 26th, 2023 via Hypnotic Dirge Records. Featuring members of Witchkiss, Lotus Thief, Forlesen, Botanist, Palace Of Worms, Grid and Swallow The Ocean.
Says the band: “Beyond stoked to announce we’ll be releasing our debut full-length »Beholden« via Hypnotic Dirge Records. Spread the word. Special thanks to our intrepid audio engineer Mike Usifer at Beacon Soundworks, David Paul Seymour’s diabolical design, Kevin Irish for the photos, John Conley for the vaulted rehearsal space, & Gerald.”
Courtesy of C Squared Music:
Crossing the realms of post-metal and heavy rock, »Beholden« is a 6 track, 60-minute album, that mixes black metal, psyche-rock-influenced solos and doomy riffs with male and female clean & harsh vocals. The record spans genres without living in any singular one and yields both a united heartbreaking and feral sound. »Beholden« will be released on May 26th, 2023.
“The overall theme is the power of relationships and connectivity. Life challenges us but ultimately we have to know our own strength. Like the Stag Priestess depicted on the cover of the album, there is an otherworldly part of each of us that tames the fire of the unpredictable and approaches the world in spite of it with kindness. She can walk the forest in the dark. The songs call upon that desire.”
About Inherus:
Based out of The Hudson Valley, New York, the band was formed in the summer of 2018 by Brian Harrigan and Anthony DiBlasi. Andrew Vogt joined the line-up shortly after and the foundations of what would become »Forgotten Kingdom« began to take shape. Beth Gladding became involved having moved to the area in the fall of that year, and upon hearing her contribution to the developing track, was auditioned and completed Inherus’ line-up. Drawing inspiration from a broad range of musical and creative influences the quartet enjoys creatively blending multiple elements together to forge new sounds. Between home studios and live and isolated tracking, the band is now advancing through several singles and a sophomore full-length album. Inherus are also performing throughout New York City and the state as the band continues the never-ending task of crafting their own pulverizing live sound.
