earMUSIC are thrilled to announce the long-awaited release of LEFT, the upcoming album by the iconic rock band Helmet.
After the critically acclaimed Dead to the World in 2016, Helmet is back with their signature blend of heavy, riff-loaded rock and evocative lyrics that have resonated with fans worldwide for over three decades. “Time for your holiday serial murder / How time slips away”, resonate the opening lines of the hard-hitting new single Holiday, available today.
Helmet take no prisoners in their direct and unfiltered expression, leaving listeners with a lasting impact and a sense of urgency to examine the world around them.
LEFT sees Helmet – comprising frontman Page Hamilton, drummer Kyle Stevenson, guitarist Dan Beeman, and bassist Dave Case – carve out a musical landscape that is taut, muscular, and direct. Hamilton’s lead guitar lines feel like everything from downed power lines arcing to exploding resistors in shortwave radios. On LEFT every snare crack hits like gunfire, every solo seemingly a manifestation of rabies-induced psychosis.
