Aberdeen, Scotland based black metal warrior HELLRIPPER, via BANDCAMP, is streaming the projects anticipated new release "GRIM AND WITHERED HAGS", unleashed 2/17/2023 via PEACEVILLLE RECORDS.
FROM HELLRIPPER:
'm pleased to finally share some details on the upcoming Hellripper album ‘Warlocks Grim & Withered Hags’, along with the release of a new track ‘The Nuckelavee’
The album will contain 8 tracks and will be released on CD/vinyl/cassette through
Peaceville Records on February 17th 2023.
‘Warlocks Grim & Withered Hags’ stands at the crossroads between the sound that Hellripper has become known for and a whirlwind of different influences that I have not yet explored, resulting in what I would call my most personal and diverse work to date.
Inspired by the landscapes and legends of the Scottish Highlands, this album is centred around the darker side of Scottish history & folklore - the title itself taken from a line in the Robert Burns poem, ‘Address to the Deil’ - as well as including references to clan culture (including my own) throughout the album.
As always, the whole writing and recording process was done at home by myself, with a few others contributing some additional parts and putting their stamp on the tracks. The album was mixed by myself and was mastered by Damian Herring at
Subterranean Watchtower Studios.
Cheers to all for the support that has allowed me to get to this point, and I'm excited to get this album out there! I hope you enjoy the new track - let me know what you think!
