A new track titled “Tunnel” has just emerged online from the the brotherly trio of Hammerhedd. The Kansas City-based outfit had the following to offer of that song:
“We wrote this song about a year ago while listening to The Police nonstop. There’s Stewart Copeland-influenced drums, a few Andy Summers-type chord shapes, and a Sting-style bass riff in the midsection. Aside from that, we (as usual) took heavy influence from Tool, Meshuggah, Mastodon, etc. – the gods of the newer generation of metal, as well as the classics; Rush, Zeppelin, Floyd, etc. We like to think we put these influences together in a way that sounds new, fresh, and uniquely Hammerhedd.”
The group are gearing up for some U.S. touring with In Flames, Born Of Osiris and Darkest Hour, here’s where they will be playing:
