Denver, CO based thrash metal act HAVOK have recorded their best first week sales to date with the release of their fourth full length album, Conformicide. The new record, which sold over 2,800 units in its first week, charted #4 on the Billboard Heatseekers and Billboard Current Hard Music Charts, as well as #5 on the Top Hard Music Chart and #23 on the Billboard Rock Chart. The debut of Conformicide on the charts comes at the conclusion of a six week tour from HAVOK in North America, but look for the band to return stateside later this year.
“This album swings for the fences in every way. Sonically stunning, technically proficient and lyrically pissed, we’ve never been represented at our best until this moment in time.”
– Reece Scruggs (Lead Guitar)
“In the shop for almost three years, Havok’s Conformicide is undoubtedly their Master of Puppets or Rust in Peace moment. True, the Denver-based rippers have bled out guts, brains, and cash on previous albums Unnatural Selection (2013), Time is Up (2011), and Burn (2009), but none of them compare to the ear-destroying, mind-flaying Conformicide. ‘Conformicide is faster and way angrier than Unnatural Selection,’ says vocalist/guitarist/founding member David Sanchez. ‘On this album, the music is very layered and dynamic and the lyrics say a lot about the current state of the world.'”
“We can’t wait to perform some new music live and present a show that people won’t forget! Expect to see Havok like you’ve never seen before. We’re ready to destroy!”
