“The Heresy”, a new song from Cleveland masked metallers MUSHROOMHEAD, can be checked out above. The track is taken from the band’s eighth album, “A Wonderful Life”, which will be released on June 19 via Napalm Records.
MUSHROOMHEAD have been working on the follow up to their monumental 2014 full-length album, “The Righteous & The Butterfly” — “waiting ever so patiently to drop their next collection of anthems.”
As the story goes, “A Wonderful Life” clocks in at 70-plus minutes with its four bonus tracks — leaving a total of “17 stellar compositions in its wake for fans to devour.”
Blabbermouth.net details more: “At its start, an ominous choir invites the listener into “A Wonderful Life” — introductory track “A Requiem For Tomorrow” smoothly shifts into an industrial-metal inspired, grooving punch to the gut juxtaposed with a melodic, synth-laden chorus. This sets the stage for stocky, chant-worthy anthems such as “Seen It All” and hair-raising, politically inclined tracks like “The Heresy” and “Carry On”, both featuring the sinister multi-voice attack of new full-time vocalist Ms. Jackie and returning longtime vocalist J Mann, with an extra strike from aforementioned new vocalist Mr. Rauckhorst on the latter. Tracks like “What A Shame”, “I Am The One” and “Madness Within” will prove a treat for new and diehard MUSHROOMHEAD fans alike — providing the macabre inspiration followers have come to crave with a weighty dose of galloping drums and bone-rattling guitars, to boot.”
