Halifax, Canada’s Kilmore is sharing their latest music video for Omitted, a song about forgotten heroes and the internal struggles they face. Entitled “Omitted”, the track was written with them in mind and turned out to be a unique, lower-key song from their new EP “From the Inside” released this March.

“Today we tend to forget about real heroes and idolize fame and fortune over everyday people who work their whole lives to help. Neil our bassist shows a lot of elements to his bass playing in this song and Jon our drummer really locks into the song, which brings out the best qualities of the guitar and vocals.” adds vocalist/guitarist Heather Harris.

The video can be seen and heard via its premiere on V13 HERE.

In additional news, Kilmore‘s EP “From the Inside” has been nominated for “Loud Recording of the Year” by the Nova Scotia Music Awards.

“We are ecstatic to be nominated for “Loud Recording of the Year” at the 2023 Nova Scotia Music Awards. We are proud of this record (From the Inside) and are excited to have it recognized. Music Nova Scotia is a huge supporter of music in Nova Scotia and we are thrilled to also be a part of the music festival.

Following their East Coast Music Award-nominated 2015 EP “City Lights”, and 2018 LP “Call of the Void”, which won the 2019 ECMA “Loud Recording of the Year”, Halifax, Canada’s Kilmore released their latest offering, the new EP “From the Inside” produced by Jon Landry (The Stanfields). The record features six tracks of groovy, stoner rock with metal elements.

‘”From the Inside’ has exposed a maturity in our sound from our last two records. Working with producer, Jon Landry, helped us craft the best version of the songs. It was written during a time when we all felt uncertain about our futures not just in music but in life. It has themes of rebirth, admiration, confusion, frustration, and hate. The songs all have a mixture of emotions, but the EP will carry you through journeys of escapism. This EP, in our opinion, is our best work to date and we are thrilled to release it.” adds vocalist/guitarist Heather Harris.

The lyrics for “From the Inside” were written during real change around the world and an internal bittersweet struggle. Along with that, Heather Harris became a new mother and was trying to find her place in a new reality really speaks loudly in the emotions on the record. Some themes are of destruction while others of hope, each song has its own theme/feel. Listening to these selected six songs, the band offers up an unearthing of realities in life through sounds and wanting to create something new.

Recommended for fans of Royal Thunder, Baroness, Ghost, and The Damn Truth, “From the Inside” was released on March 31st, 2023.

About: Kilmore finds its roots deep in influence from two siblings who immigrated from Newry, Northern Ireland at an early age to Vancouver, BC, and eventually to Halifax, Nova Scotia. Two new Canadians growing up in the nineties, finding their musical diet of grunge to surpass the time.

Fast forward to 2013, sister and brother Heather Harris (vocals, guitars) and Dan Doran (guitars) formed with the addition of Neil Spence (bass) and Lor Sangster (drums) to the original lineup. Sangster was later replaced in 2019 by Jon MacIsaac (drums) from local bands Chosen Lung, Burdened, Earth Alter to complete the current lineup.

Dark, aggressive, brawny, and haunting, Kilmore is recommended for fans of Royal Thunder, Baroness, Windhand, and The Damn Truth.

“While Halifax band Kilmore’s latest album isn’t technically out until March’s end, we couldn’t sleep on having it in this list: A follow-up to the band’s ECMA Loud Recording of the Year-winning album Call The Void, the upcoming From The Inside is stoner groove music with a heavy hit of metal mixed in. The lead single “Firestone” is all the proof you need that this one’s gonna slap.” – The Coast Halifax​
​
​“Kilmore is by far the best Canadian stoner/groove/psych band I’ve heard in forever, I have a feeling their rise to the big stage will happen sooner than later. For fans of this musical genre, From the Inside is an absolute MUST! ” – Spill Magazine​
​
​“This is one of those records you feel from the opening chords. From the first few seconds of “Tempest”, I was drawn in. Halifax band Kilmore have released their latest project, an EP called From the Inside. I would describe this EP as ‘stoner rock with bits of metal sprinkled in,’ but over the six songs we get bits of grunge, hard rock, and Kilmore’s own unique melodic vibes, as heard on “Omitted”. 8/10” – CKDU 88.1 FM – Halifax – Ra’keem – Music Director​
​
​“Escaping from toxic influences and exploring new shores simultaneously, Kilmore sound more earthed and confident than ever before. From the Inside is solid, melancholic and full of motivational sounds.” – Mangowave Magazine​
​
​“The amazing vocals by Heather Harris are the one constant factor as the six tracks shift color and dive into whatever aspect the band felt was right for the song.” – Stoner Hive​
​
​“From the Inside is a true inner journey, at once chaotic, melancholy and filled with hope. Heather expresses with great determination, all her feelings about love, hate, frustration, understanding, renewal and the search for truth. From the Inside opens with the explosive Tempest. The exalted song increases in power accompanied by an instrumental tornado with massive fuzz. Presented last December, this first single was the infallible detonator for a hard-hitting and irresistible hook that only makes you want to know what happens next.” – Rock Metal Mag
