Following their critically acclaimed 2018 album, Collider, May 29th 2020 will see noise rock and post- punk act, HEADS., release their third studio album via Glitterhouse Records.

PUSH was recorded in Berlin by Kadavar’s Christoph Bartelt, while Magnus Lindberg of Cult Of Luna took care of the mix and mastering. Appearing throughout the record you will hear guest musicians such as Kristof Hahn (Swans), Matthias Feit (Radare) and Markus E. Lipka (Eisenvater). But also on a visual level, HEADS. got support from well-reputated names, while Alex Edkins of METZ created a gritty music video to the band’s new single “Weather Beaten”! Just exclusively premiered with Revolver Magazine, you can now watch the brand new HEADS. video HERE!

“The general premise of the video is human kind vs. nature.“ Says Edkins about his visual interpretation on the video. “The intelligent/scientific/philosophical/narcissistic human race is in the end humbled by the power of nature. Nature will always win.

We may fool ourselves into thinking we are in control, but really we have very little. This speaks directly to the current global pandemic we are all adjusting to and working to overcome. In the last scene the snake and rabbit are meant to symbolize rebirth and hope in the future. We will get through this.“

On PUSH, the trio from Berlin and Melbourne continues to evolve their very own blend of noise-rock, post-punk and alternative rock in a sprawling soundscape – an experimental, wild, distinguished, radical and yet still catchy ride.

HEADS. is Ed Fraser (vocals, guitar), Chris Breuer (bass) and Nic Stockmann (drums). Founded in Berlin in 2014, the trio released their self-titled debut in 2015 on This Charming Man Records, followed by countless shows with artists such as Metz, Daughters, Nothing, Protomartyr and Whores. After Collider, the band’s latest album released in 2018, and following extensive touring all over Europe and the States, HEADS. have taken a massive step forward with PUSH. The album is a wall of sound, a monolith. This is a challenging, original and wild record for fans of acts like Swans, Helmet, The Melvins, Tar, Codeine, Metz, The Jesus Lizard or Protomartyr.

Coming May 29th on Glitterhouse Records, the pre-sale is available at THIS LOCATION!

May 29th 2020 will see post-punk / noise-rock act HEADS. release their third full- length album, PUSH, via Glitterhouse Records. Following their critically acclaimed 2018 album, Collider, the trio from Berlin and Melbourne continues to evolve their very own blend of noise-rock, post-punk and alternative rock in a sprawling soundscape – an experimental, wild, distinguished, radical and yet still catchy ride!

HEADS. upcoming album was recorded in Berlin by Kadavar’s Christoph Bartelt, while Magnus Lindberg of Cult Of Luna took care of the mix and mastering. Appearing throughout the record you will hear guest musicians such as Kristof Hahn (Swans), Matthias Feit (Radare) and Markus E. Lipka (Eisenvater). Now, HEADS. have shared a first appetizer with the drifting track Push You Out To Sea, featuring Matthias Feit on guest guitars and Rosa Mercedes of Kino Motel. Listen to the song HERE!

“Push You Out To Sea is a strange easy song. It doesn’t feel easy, but it is.“ Says vocalist and guitarist, Ed Fraser. “ It’s the idea that you can force things out if you choose to. It’s the moment where you consciously make the wrong choice, right at that point where you fully understand the result of your decision. You make the wrong choice because you have the option to. You hold on to the oars and push the boat out from the shore, you leave it to sail out and off the edge of the earth.

Chris and Nic’s bass and drums are astounding in this song, live it is an incredible feeling to play this one. On the record Matthias Feit of Radare played some really excellent guest guitars, and Rosa Mercedes of Kino Motel added some wild feedback in the middle section.“

Following their critically acclaimed 2018 album, Collider, May 29th 2020 will see post-punk / noise-rock act HEADS. release their third full- length album, PUSH, via Glitterhouse Records. On PUSH, the three-piece from Berlin and Melbourne continues to evolve their very own blend of noise-rock, post-punk and alternative rock in a sprawling soundscape – an experimental, wild, distinguished, radical and yet still catchy ride.

HEADS. upcoming album was recorded in Berlin by Kadavar’s Christoph Bartelt, while Magnus Lindberg of Cult Of Luna took care of the mix and mastering. Appearing throughout the record you will hear guest musicians such as Kristof Hahn (Swans), Matthias Feit (Radare) and Markus E. Lipka (Eisenvater).

“From start until end Push is about distance, adaptation, change and connection,“ the band comments. “Each song will tell you a story, the album is a narration on empty places, weather beatings, toxic things. We’ve been calling Push our ‘Berlin’ record as this is the first time we’ve made an album in Berlin, where we were all living at the time. Recorded with Christoph Bartelt from Kadavar in their top floor studio in an old warehouse; for a couple of weeks every morning we’d travel through East Berlin to some mechanics factories, climb to the top of some dirty old concrete stairs, through a heavy steel door and into a beautiful wood-panelled clean haven of a studio where we’d all get to work. Being local meant we could have people like Kristof Hahn from Swans come in and play on the album, and it meant we could make Push quickly. Magnus Lindberg of Cult Of Luna, our frequent collaborator, mixed and mastered Push in Stockholm, he has our sound more accurate than ever this time. There’s more guests and more stories to come, we’re excited to share Push with you.“
