Facedown Records celebrates their newest addition to the roster, Bloodlines, with the release of their crushing new EP, HEVEL, out now! The EP marries classic metalcore with a distinctly progressive twist. This Gulf Coast 4-piece takes cues from bands like For Today, Impending Doom, and Convictions on their latest release.
The band wrote HEVELto address seasons of life, with the band taking inspiration from the biblical book of Ecclesiastes.
They have this to say about the concept:
“Ecclesiastes uses the word ‘meaningless’ a lot, which is translated to ‘hevel’ in Hebrew and has a different interpretation. The word ‘hevel’ in the context of the book means vanishing vapor or smoke. So in essence, Ecclesiastes wasn’t necessarily saying that the work and the seasons we go through in life are meaningless, but rather they are just fleeting, ever-changing. Like vapor, here one minute and gone the next.
Earlier this year, the band also released a music video for their single, “Lotus.”
You can buy or stream HEVEL wherever you get your music now!
