De Duitste trashmetal-band Exumer heeft een nieuwe plaat klaar! Hostile Defiance is verkrijgbaar vanaf vijf april aanstaande en wordt uitgebracht onder het toeziend oog van Metal Blade Records. Daaruit selecteerde het gezelschap nu ook een eerste voorloper: de titeltrack nota bene.
Over het aankomende album wilde zanger Mem V. Stein nog wel het volgende kwijt:
“Hostile Defiance is exactly what its title suggests. A 42-minute full on attack, the thrash faction hold nothing back as they unleash hell as only they can, with more variety and dynamics than ever before. We wanted to sonically progress, incorporating more melodic elements in the music as well as more rhythmic variety. We are a lot braver trying to create an up to date and relevant sound that can easily stand alone in today’s thrash landscape without sounding trite or a throwback, and we’re challenging the listener not to get too comfortable with one specific feel, tempo or pace. Our goal is simple: to further establish the band as one of the main German thrash metal acts that began in the 1980s and are now carrying the torch into the 2020s.”
