LOCK HORNS Release New Single From Upcoming Album

LOCK HORNS release new single ‘Skin And Bones‘, out now, new album ‘Red Room‘ is set for release 31st May.

Following on from last month’s blistering single, ‘The Golden Mean’, Belfast Progressive Metal foursome, Lock Horns, return with their new single, ‘Skin and Bones’, a breathtaking sonic journey of intense riffs, entwine with heart-soaring vocals that highlight a stark message of mental anguish as a result of overindulgence and addiction.

If you’ve had the pleasure of hearing the debut single, ‘The Golden Mean’ from Lock Horns forthcoming album ‘Red Room’, then it will come as no surprise when we tell you that new single/video, ‘Skin and Bones’ sees the band continuing to raise the bar in anticipation for the album’s release on May 31st.

‘Skin and Bones’ thunderous pulse surges with outrageous energy and technical proficiency, as band members pave way for a truly powerful aural experience that is only intensified when performed live.

Speaking of the new single, vocalist Alex De Costa says; “‘Skin and Bones’ is about falling into addiction, and self-sabotaging behaviour. The lyrics were written with the covid lockdowns in mind. The overarching themes are a lack of control and overindulgence”.

With regards to the video, guitarist Junior Afrifa commented; “We thought a visualiser would work best to show all the different elements that are in the lyrics. Working with an editor, we sourced around 100 different clips, and together chose the best clips. Visual ideas for this album have been ongoing for a very long time and it is great to finally get it out into the world”.

‘Red Room’ is the follow-up to 2018’s ‘Molon Labe‘ opus, and is due for release on May 31st, via The Distortion Project and Code 7 Distribution.

Speaking of the new album, guitarist Junior Afrifa said; “Boundaries were pushed on this album, sonically and physically from a playing perspective. I truly believe this a seven-track album that is most definitely, ‘all killer and no filler’, as well as being full of unique songs that take an unexpected turn at every corner. From seven-minute chaotic riffs to three minutes of polyrhythmic nightmares, this album is the brainchild of all four of us, and we’re all immensely proud of what we’ve created. Trust me when I say, it’ll be well worth the wait.”
