New York, NY (Top40 Charts) On Friday, October 13th, Italian Alternative Rockers HOT SUNDAY BLOOD released their stunning new album "New Omega", via Mervilton Records! Now the band has revealed the track-by-track of the album, read below.
• Salvation (Omega into flesh)
The first part of "
Salvation" suite is based on Arabic riffs and the pairing of clean and growl vocals. The song has solid heavy rock structure with melodic elements and talks about Jesus Christ's rage during his own crucifixion.
• Salvation (Tears of absolution)
The suite's second part is the heaviest track of the album. Musically speaking is an old-school metal song totally singed in growl vocals, except for its melodic refrain. It's about Christ's invective against his Father's decision.
• Salvation (Observed)
The second part of "Tears of absolution" can be considered as the third part of the suite. It's a dark song with a funeral mood; the meeting point between Katatonia and Bowie. A flow of Christ's thoughts during his carnal death. God is the observer of this departure.
• Die Free
A classic hard rock song with clean vocals and numerous instrumental parts. The track talks about liberation through death.
• Rich n' fallen
A hard rock song with Mastodon's inspiration. Easy listening, heavy with southern/stoner influences. Lyrics recount deals between hopeless men and evil.
• Troublemaker
A sort of false ballad focused on easy listening vocals and an alternative fresh flavor. Slightly resemble an unusual match between The
Calling and Silverchair. The story of a guy who apologizes for his dissolute life.
• Still broken
Grunge oriented song with a sweet/dark mood. Alice in chains meet Type O
Negative in a very peculiar way. This track's about our generation: always in search of nothing, and struggling with love and solitude issues.
• Souleater
First single chosen to symbolize New Omega. Outright hard rock song, with clean vocals and gothic elements. H.I.M. sweetness blended with
Paradise Lost blackness.
A walk through an ancient cemetery and the presences that inhabit it.
• Salvation (Waiting to be saved)
Last song of the album and also fourth part of the suite. Tribal textures in 80's dark atmosphere. Jesus Christ leaves his mortal remains, waiting to be saved.
Celebrating the album release the band unleashed the first single "Souleater". Stream it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAmhTMGS4BY
"Hot Sunday Blood's New
Omega cover was conceived by the whole group. The
Omega symbol, formed by two bodies, is the main theme of the album.
Omega is a mystic symbol that stands for Jesus Christ and also a representation of an end, as for conclusion of a spiritual or carnal path. In this case it means the corporal death in order to reach a spiritual elevation; a strong will to leave mortal remains to be free to reach a higher dimension. The four-parts suite Salvation talks about it. Jesus Christ, considered as a human being, is the protagonist. He's been left alone in his own corporal essence to be reeducated by his Father; all this happens through suffering and pain that all humans have to feel in their own life. The aseptic background of the picture represents the spiritual mood and the two half-naked bodies symbolize carnality."
"New Omega" album concept follows a spirituality research through carnal suffering that brings to the idea to compose a four-parts suite (Salvation) about Jesus Christ. Not from a religious point of view, but mostly related to a concept of the human pain of a man forsaken and sacrificed by his own father's will.
