A few days after their outstanding appearance at Alcatraz Festival – Belgian metallers Hunter release a lyric video for the title track of their long-awaited new album 'Rebel Angels Rise'. Earlier this month, the band released a single for the song "Wicked". The new album will be out on September 2nd, and is already available for pre-order (cd and digital).
About the newly released song "Rebel Angels Rise": We have all fallen down to Hell, we've been banished from paradise. But as the victorious, optimistic melody of the song suggests: we decide not to accept this fate. A sing-along song about a challenge accepted. If not for victory, then revenge.
About the artist
Hunter is a heavy metal band from Belgium. Hunter isn't post metal or thrash metal or doom metal, even if it could be all of the above. As traditionalists, they just say "heavy metal" so that it covers all bases. In 2016, these five experienced musicians joined forces to form one giant megazord of crushing metal. In 2019, they released their self-titled debut album. Since then, Hunter operates outside of definable subgenres and stereotypes. A combined century of heavy metal training and all sorts of influences come together as a mighty roar that sounds like the 80s have just met the no-holds-barred 21st century.
About this album
'Rebel Angels Rise' brings you a barrage of pure metal with a variety of influences, highs and lows, speed and slows, screams and grunts, sizzling riffs and twin solos. Hunter's second album shows maturity in song writing. They've taken some adventurous choices: more melody here, more thrash there. Maybe a wink to classic rock somewhere else. While always clearly Hunter, always rooted in traditional metal, the seven songs are different, taking you from one setting to another, to keep you hooked from start to finish.
