The new Hammerhands, Model Citizen, out July 19 via, is going to churn out the doom in mass quantities, and we’re stoked to premiere it right here.
“Model Citizen is an album that is as intriguing as it is perilously unrelenting,” the band’s press release states. “By exploring a range of tonalities, tempos, and raw soundscapes, Hammerhands are able to traverse a number of musical territories. The opening track from the album, “Pleasure Island,” perfectly exemplifies this, demonstrating the best of the band’s unruly, bludgeoning guitar tone whilst also creating a technically composite and solid, rhythmic approach which brutally rolls out alongside an almost blues-noise strut, leaving the listener feeling transcended.”
