News : Harlott release crushing new single, “First World Solutions”

Melbourne thrash icons, Harlott, have dropped a huge new single, entitled “First World Solutions”; an obvious take on the ‘first world problems’ mantra of the current generation.

An absolute banger of a track, the new single is taken from the Metal Blade-signees forthcoming new album, Extinction; which will be released on April 7th this year through Metal Blade Records.

Featuring artwork by Andrei Bouzikov, Extinction is Harlott‘s third album and the successor to 2015′s critically acclaimed Proliferation. Recorded at Monolith Studios (Orpheus Omega, In Malice’s Wake, Bane of Winterstorm) and mastered by Jens Bogren (Kreator, Opeth, Soilwork), the album seeks to rain pure savagery upon any listener with furious riffs, spitting verses and face melting shred that are blended effortlessly with triumphant melodies and thundering groove to make a diverse and adaptable record which pays tribute to the kings of thrash metal, while making waves in the new dawn of evil. Taking what they had already mastered and pushing the limits of dissonance, evil, and atmosphere, they bring together an offering that will satisfy the bloodlust of their manic legion, and draw in the revelers of a dying breed. Containing 12 songs of pure bedlam, Extinction pauses only for the deafening silence between each blistering track.
