INTO THE GREAT
UNKNOWN
Album by H.E.A.T released
autumn 2017.
"What can you say about H.E.A.T? If you don't like
these energetic Swedes you must be dead inside, as this year they've shown the
UK crowd how to be the most complete band on the planet."
- 9/10, Classic Rock
Magazine
“Into The Great Unknown” is the follow-up to 2014’s critically acclaimed
“Tearing Down The Walls”. 2012’s successful “Address
The Nation” album was praised worldwide as one of the best albums of
the year, and consolidated the H.E.A.T’s growing reputation as the new leading
band in hard edged melodic rock.
In 2009, H.E.A.T had a huge hit in Scandinavia with
the song “1000 Miles”. That same year the band’s second album
“Freedom Rock” was nominated as one of the Top 50 albums in
2010 by Classic Rock magazine UK. Since then, they’ve toured all over the world,
blowing audiences away with their outstanding live concerts.
In a time when artists like Foreigner, Journey and
Whitesnake are enjoying a resurgence, teenagers are re-discovering the melodic
approach to hard rock. The kids are suddenly wearing their classic rock band
logos on t-shirts. H.E.A.T is the beacon of light that many say will carry this
tradition into the future. They’re young, ambitious and full of energy and
ideas.
H.E.A.T don’t hide their love for their classic rock
heroes, but don’t try to copy it, either. They just do it and they want to be
the best at it. And they are one of the best - drawing both young and old to
their mesmerizing, fresh sounding, energetic classic rock and bombastic
melodies.
“Into The Great Unknown” is a rock
and roll journey into the great unknown. The album delivers everything H.E.A.T
is loved for - frontman Erik Grönwall’s incredible vocal talent
and the band’s traditional approach to melodic rock.
The result is a set of high-quality tracks that
bend the genre’s boundaries and take it to new heights. H.E.A.T’s fifth album
incorporates some of classic rock’s most renowned features and taking them into
another dimension. H.E.A.T have always had a grasp for great melodies.
“Eye Of The Storm”, “Redefined”, Time
On Our Side” and “Do You Want It?” embody catchy
melodies and fresh ideas, all of which takes the band’s talent to the next
level.
"During the making of this album, I think we all
felt a little bit like astronauts going off to space for the first time,” says
guitarist Dave Dalone (aka Sky Davis). “We set out on a journey
not knowing what we would come back with, or if we'd even make it back.
Somewhere along the way, the pieces began to fall into place. There's just no
point in doing the same album over and over again just because it works. When it
all comes down to it, you want to make the songs shine to their full potential.
If that includes bending the rules of the genre or crossing paths into unknown
territory, so be it.”
“The title "Into The Great
Unknown" suits the album for many reasons,” says drummer Crash. “The
plan, to focus entirely on the song writing and to not do a live show until the
new album is out, was a new thing for us. We had never done anything like it,
how do you 'not' play live for two years? We had been doing live shows since we
were kids. Another leap into the great unknown is the music itself, with no
limits and elements never before seen in H.E.A.T. Eric Rivers disappeared into
the great unknown and former guitarist Dave Dalone (aka Sky Davis) came back
from it. The album cover is once again created by Russian artist Vitaly S.
Alexius, and is inspired by the mystical.
H.E.A.T will headline Melodic
Rock Fest 5 in Chicago May 5th .
