Get ready to dive into the ferocious world of thrash metal and hardcore with HATCHEND’s debut album, Summer Of ’69, set to be unleashed this August through Selfmadegod Records. This Swedish quartet, featuring members from underground legends like Deranged, Razorrape, Birdflesh, and Deathening, is here to deliver an unfiltered, no-nonsense assault on your senses.
HATCHEND brings together raw talent and pure aggression, leaving behind any gimmicks or flashy stage antics. These guys live by the motto, “If it’s too fast, you’re too damn slow,” and they’re not afraid to burn out before selling out. Their music is a wild ride, built for those who can keep up.
Summer Of ‘69 was recorded in just two days at HoboRec, with vocals laid down at Wheelmust Studios by Elis Edin Markskog. The album was expertly mixed and mastered by Ulf Blomberg, with stunning cover art and layout by Rikard Wermén and Elis Edin Markskog. The album kicks off with “Shackled Humanity,” featuring a searing guest solo by Leon De Muerte (Phobia, Murder Construct, ex-Intronaut).
The first single, “Scapegoat,” has dropped alongside a riotous music video produced by Elis Edin Markskog and Wheelmust Production. Drummer Rikard Wermén says, “It’s about time to show the world what we’ve been up to. ‘Scapegoat’ is a thrash metal banger loaded with hardcore fury, perfect for these chaotic times. I know it’s cliché, but I can’t wait to see you all breaking your bones in the pit to this track.”
Summer Of ‘69 dropped on CD and digital formats on August 23rd. Orders are live now at the Selfmadegod Records webshop HERE and on Bandcamp HERE.
