Industrial nü-metal outfit American Head Charge‘s third studio album “The Feeding” recently made its way to digital service providers around the globe. Holiday Kirk from The Nu Metal Agenda has commented on that return, having played a direct role in getting that record out digitally.
Last year Kirk set out to locate American Head Charge vocalist Cameron Heacock, who was revealed to be struggling with drug addiction and homelessness in the Los Angeles, CA area. Kirk would eventually locate Heacock and setup a crowdfunding campaign to get Heacock into an organized treatment plan for drug addiction. Over the weekend, Kirk had the following via to say via his social media about “The Feeding” making it to streaming platforms:
“It is my honor and privilege to announce that The Feeding by @ahcofficial is now on streaming platforms worldwide for the first time ever. Thank you to @cronen23 and @regimemusicgroup for getting things sorted out on the legal side. Thank you to everyone who donated to The Something Beautiful Project. And thank you, most of all, to my friend Cameron Heacock, without whom none of this would be possible… Well, what are you still reading for? Go listen to The Feeding!! I know I’m about to myself haha. – kirk”
Heacock himself also commented on this development, offering:
“It seems to me like a crime has been committed this album not being available on streaming platforms for its entire lifespan so far. Well, thankfully no more. The bulk of this record the culmination of Bryan Ottoson and myself combining our song writing forces and what you hear is the result of that.
A little known fact is that after ‘The War Of Art‘ touring cycle I was so burnt out I really had a very nominal interest in working on a new record. If it weren’t for Bryan coming over to my place on 1st avenue literally everyday showing me riffs and the hunger in his eyes to do this was inescapable.
And without that I don’t know if it would’ve been finished and released. And with that said it’s some of my favorite work to date mainly because I feel I really came into my own as a singer on this record and was able to stretch out, as it were, or spread my wings of some stupid cliche, insert here, anyway its good stuff, and if you’re unfamiliar with the material or not, from me to you, most sincerely, enjoy – Cam“
In other news, it’s also been revealed in additional comments on that aforementioned post that efforts are underway to get American Head Charge‘s 2001 sophomore album, the Rick Rubin-produced “The War Of Art“, back up on streaming services as well.
