HARDRAW RELEASE "ABYSS OF MANKIND"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

HARDRAW - "Abyss of Mankind"

Brilliant Heavy Metal from Cyprus!

"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 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.

HARDRAW’s new album is a testament to the band’s commitment to their craft (and their roots), while marking a new chapter in their journey and solidifying their place in the metal realm.
