Stoked to see the Hegemony record finally coming out soon & through HELLS HEADBANGERS nonetheless. Was a blast to make!

For black/death metal fans check out their first revealed track
"Rise in Turmoil"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3IgNwSPpcA

HEGEMONY reveal first track from HELLS HEADBANGERS debut

Today, uprising American black/death cult Hegemony reveal the new track "Rise in Turmoil." The track hails from the band's forthcoming debut album, Enthroned by Persecution, which will be released by Hells Headbangers during the first quarter of 2020 on CD and vinyl LP formats. Hear Hegemony's brand-new "Rise in Turmoil" in its entirety HERE at Hells Headbangers' official YouTube channel.

Hailing from Alabama, the four members of Hegemony - drummer Ruination Wielder, bassist Primordial Dominator, guitarist Barbaric Progenitor, and vocalist Fanatical Deathtitan - formed in 2015 and released their first demo a year later. Although a then-brand-new entity, the members of Hegemony possess a wealth of experience in other southern US bands, and that experience for sure showed on Demo MMXVI: a foul explosion of filth, be***al metal savagery executed with exacting cruelty. Not surprising that its three component songs are titled "No Throne Left to Topple," "Driven by Hedonistic Vice," and "Fist of Heretical Triumph."

With those latter two songs reprised for their debut album, Enthroned by Persecution, Hegemony nevertheless strike upon newer, uglier territory here. Still unrepentantly and punishingly physical, here Hegemony move away from the more familiar be***al metal tropes as proffered by such bands as Be***al Raids and earlier Demonomancy and instead drive deeply into the idiom's most viscous underbelly, bringing to the fore their latent death metal muscle and dragging everything down into caverns most doomed, dire, and disgusting. Arguably more world-eating than before, Hegemony's ripped 'n' roiling attack is now more reminiscent of such overlooked be***al touchstones as Finland's Belial and Mythos, Incantation's earliest work, and especially '90s Demoncy. As such, alongside labelmates Abysmal Lord's recent Exaltation of the Infernal Cabal, with Enthroned by Persecution are Hegemony standing at the forefront of the American South's rising be***al metal vanguard.
