Four years after their much-praised Blackout record, Bergen-based heavy rock outfit AUDREY HORNE has announced the release of their brand new studio album! Their seventh full-length, entitled Devil’s Bell, will be released on April 22, 2022 via Napalm Records, and as the first single demonstrates, will be a massive rock’n’roll album full of infectious earworms!
Devil’s Bell offers nine fist-pumping songs that will shake concert venues worldwide. Frontman Toschie once again proves that he has one of the most charismatic and energetic voices in rock. The kinetic guitar-work of Ice Dale (Enslaved) and Thomas Tofthagen (ex-Sahg) underlines an outstanding genre-warp of 70s and 80s rock via NWOBHM, keeping the music rocking and the listener locked in.
As with every AUDREY HORNE album, there are no duds or misfires as the songs flow together seamlessly, making Devil’s Bell a delight to play from the first note straight to the end. The band is tight, the music is festive, and the songs stick upon first listen – that’s how a modern hard rock album should sound! As a first taste, today AUDREY HORNE have revealed the album’s melodic, hard-rocking first anthem, the title track “Devil’s Bell”.
Frontman Toschie says:
“We are truly excited to be back and to present the first song from our upcoming album: Devil’s Bell. The title track has the classic AUDREY HORNE sound with twin guitars, catchy melody lines and the strongest rhythm foundation since Fort Knox. The song ‘Devil’s Bell’ is a song for the freaks of nature of this world, celebrating our differences! The video was directed by Francisco Munoz, who has made the recent Abbath videos amongst others. Sound the Devil`s bell!”
