Hail The Sun
Cut.turn.fade.black
cut. turn. fade. back. truly finds HAIL THE SUN going the distance, encompassing the complete cycle of life with its four monosyllabic words. An album touching on topics such as military atrocities, humanitarian crises, addiction, lost love, and death, the 11 songs presented here capture the cyclical nature of all those things, as well as life itself in general. A frenetic and politically charged, emotional juggernaut, the album's new single, "War Crimes," takes aim at the damaging, harrowing effects of colonialism and imperialism, but tied in with deep, probing questions about destiny and providence. Simultaneously, it serves as an affirmation about the strength of the human spirit.
