Bloodred Hourglass have already received rave reviews for their seventh full-length, and now We Should Be Buried Like This has been released. Released on the German label Out of Line, the album combines explosive aggression with melodic beauty and is, according to the band, the most honest and uncompromising album of their career, without questioning or embellishing, without consoling, explaining or proving – it only says what had to be said.

“For us, this album is a collection of end-time songs – not just about the end of the world, but also about certain emotions, beliefs and illusions. In the songs, love is just an echo, sacrifices feel empty and every feeling is an open wound. We deal with the decay of humanity, mistakes repeated from generation to generation, the spirit of the times that feeds indifference, hatred and detachment, as well as self-centeredness and individualism that has grown to unhealthy proportions. The future looks black, and unfortunately it no longer scares us, but feels inevitable,” the band describes.

Musically, Bloodred Hourglass also combines its recognizable sounds on the album with new elements, as guest soloists are heard on the album for the first time.

“The album exudes raw, intense energy and a melodic beauty and power that is guaranteed to be contagious. We’ve also included a last-gasp amount of new elements: guest voices and moments where we reach outside the box. It feels especially good to stand on our own strong foundations without having to prove anything to anyone. This is an album that was born from a compelling need to tear open and say things as they are. Perhaps that’s why this became the most aggressive and straightforward album we’ve ever made – and perhaps that’s why it looks the most like us.”

The top song of the ten-track album is the last song written on the album, Shun the Limelight, whose music video production swelled to a massive size with 80 fans participating in the filming.

“We wanted something special for the last video song. Usually the fans – the ones who make this whole journey meaningful and possible – are left out of the spotlight. However, we have an incredibly loyal and passionate fan base that has followed and supported the band year after year. With this video, we wanted to give them the opportunity to be a concrete part of the making and step into the spotlight themselves by playing a central role in the video’s creation. The atmosphere on the day of the shoot was exceptionally communal and meaningful – an experience that will surely go down in history as one of the most important music video projects of the band’s career. We are the ones!”
