| Based in Fresno, California, Haunt is the brainchild of singer/guitarist Trevor William Church, and in July 2022, he proudly returns with new album, Windows of Your Heart. For the most part, Church adhered to his tried-and-true methodologies for writing and recording this full-length – but, discerning listeners will notice a difference in the guitar solos this time around. Whereas on past Haunt records, the lead breaks were constructed around two-guitar tradeoffs, this time Church reinvented the solos with a single guitar, relying on pinch harmonics and whammy bar as key elements. However, longtime fans will be relieved to know that Haunt’s trademark guitar harmonies remain fully intact and unsullied. As on previous albums, Church built Windows of Your Heart around a few key songs to be featured in the live set. The title track is one such foundational piece, featuring catchy riffs, big hooks and a slightly different guitar approach for Haunt that straddles the line between heavy metal and hard rock. As for other standout songs on the record, Church quickly points to the barn-burning opener, “Mercenaries”, plus “Father Time” – which treads familiar lyrical territory for Haunt by musing on the dizzying speed with which time flies by. The single is also noteworthy for the readily discernible Ozzy-isms in Church’s vocal melodies and timbre. The resemblance is not coincidental, but is an intentional tribute to the Prince of Darkness. Church explains, “Ozzy Osbourne gave me the courage to be a singer. He taught me how to be a singer. My music naturally goes toward that.” Windows of Your Heart track-listing 1. Mercenaries 2. Running Hard 3. Barricade 4. Father Time 5. Windows Of Your Heart 6. Catch Me 7. No Control 8.

Defender On the live front, Church assembled a new line-up consisting of his longtime Beastmaker bandmate Andy Saldate on drums, Andy Lei on guitars, and Chris Fletcher on bass. “This is Haunt version 2.0,” Church says. This new live configuration has already been battle-tested with eight shows under their belts, and many more to come – including a 20-date run through the western half of North America in April 2022, supported by Screamer, Traveler and Saber. The trek is highlighted by a stop at the prestigious Hell’s Heroes Festival in Houston, Texas on April 23rd. See below for all dates!
