“In short, they go hard… the track goes from zero to ‘holy shit’ in no time at all.” – MetalSucks

MetalSucks is hosting the exclusive premiere of “Shackled Humanity,” by Swedish hardcore/thrash quartet HATCHEND. The new song marks the second single from the band’s debut album, Summer Of ‘69, nearing release on August 23rd through Selfmadegod Records.

HATCHEND is an unrelenting act containing members of well-known extreme underground death metal and grindcore acts such as Birdflesh, Deranged, Razorrape, Deathening, and more, uniting drummer Rikard Wermén, guitarist, Elis Edin Markskog, bassist Dan Bengtsson, and vocalist Kalle Nimhagen. Without the implementation of gimmicks, makeup, or bullshit stage show, HATCHEND’s straightforward and in-your-face output is custom made for the shackled masses. Living by the slogan, “If it’s too fast, you’re too damn slow,” they are a band who might destroy themselves before ever selling out.

HATCHEND’s Summer Of ‘69 was recorded in two days at HoboRec, with the vocals recorded at Wheelmust Studios by Elis Edin Markskog, the record then mixed and mastered by Ulf Blomberg. The record was completed with cover artwork and layout by Rikard Wermén and Elis Edin Markskog and photography by Abdul Alhazred, and the opening song “Shackled Humanity” features a guest solo by Leon De Muerte (Phobia, Murder Construct, ex-Intronaut).

With the “Shackled Humanity” single, drummer Rikard Wermén states, “I’ve said before and will probably say it again. You know that black eternal void you feel in your stomach? It’s like a wild beast you just need to tame as you’re scared to death what would happen if you let it loose. You’re falling deep into your own personal abyss of darkness and there’s… No return. We tried to transform that feeling into music, and ‘Shackled Humanity’ came close.”

MetalSucks writes, “In short, they go hard. From the relentless riffs and thundering bass to the rapid fire drums and abyssal vocals, it’s hard to imagine a universe where ‘Shackled Humanity’ wouldn’t reduce a venue full of metalheads into an gnashing gyre of stomping fists and banging heads. For a little over three straight minutes, the track goes from zero to ‘holy shit’ in no time at all.”
