New Wave of British Heavy Metal legends RAVEN have detonated their dynamic new album 'All Hell’s Breaking Loose', now available via Silver Lining Music. It's time to gear up for an onslaught of metal chaos you've not witnessed in a long while.
RAVEN, with their 15th studio album, 'All Hell’s Breaking Loose', presents a metallic uproar. Alongside this release, RAVEN have revealed an ear-blasting title track. The accompanying video showcases co-founding bassist and vocalist John Gallagher in a straitjacket with his mouth sealed shut, interspersed with scenes of havoc and mayhem.
Musically, 'All Hell’s Breaking Loose' is a rollercoaster ride. Amidst the pandemonium, you'll discover hints of musical elements, perfectly encapsulating the collective desperation we all experienced during the lockdown induced by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The song’s lyrics were inspired by the lockdown constraints and our universal urge to regain our freedom, or risk going mad. Co-founding guitarist Mark Gallagher elaborates, "It’s about taking control of your freedom!". John Gallagher adds, "It’s a kick-ass song with a super heavy... 100% in yer face kill your neighbors heavy metal!!"
Formed by the Gallagher brothers and completed by the extraordinary drummer Mike Heller, RAVEN has crafted 10 crisp, raw metal classics at Heller’s Heaven And Heller Studios in Los Angeles. These tracks, laden with riffs, twists, turns, chaos and unforgettable hooks, are bound to become metal anthems.
Songs like 'Go For The Gold' and 'Surf The Tsunami' offer a melodic journey packed with furious riffs and percussive madness. 'Turn Of The Screw' bounces on the upbeats before a thunderous chorus, while 'The Far Side' brings a classic metal riff. If you've ever wondered what it was like to witness RAVEN at the Marquee on a sweltering metal night in '83, 'Desperate Measures' is your ticket back in time. Finally, 'Edge of A Nightmare' is your thundering portal to paradise, as hard-hitting as the opener 'Medieval'.
