Halestorm are set to climb new heights with the release of their next album, which the anthemic rockers have now given a most-fitting title of Everest.
The details behind the band’s long-in-the-works sixth LP were formally unveiled today (April 29th), with it being confirmed that the record is out August 8th via Atlantic Records. As previously reported, the album was produced by Grammy winner and “closet metal fan” Dave Cobb (Brandi Carlile, Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell).
A press release notes that the album, which will include recent heavy anthem “Darkness Always Wins,” is a 12-song collection that “dives deeply, both lyrically and sonically, into the band’s mountainous climb over the last couple decades.”
“Our album Everest is a story of our journey as a band, full of beautiful endings and new beginnings,” guitarist-vocalist Lzzy Hale added in a statement.
“We weave a tangled web of melancholy, frustration, anger and the vast purgatory of love and love lost. It is a rollercoaster of epic musical detours, great songwriting and completely unhinged twists and turns. Everest is an auditory representation of the four pillars of Halestorm. Let us reintroduce ourselves and invite you into our world…if you dare.”
As previously reported, Halestorm are heading out to U.S. arenas this summer as support on Volbeat’s next tour. Shortly after they wrap those dates, Halestorm heads back out on their own “nEVEREST” headlining tour, with that run of fall dates set to include support from Lindsey Sterling and cello- metal veterans Apocalyptica.
Tickets to the “nEVEREST” tour go on sale this Friday (May 2nd) at 10 a.m. local time.
