Heaven Shall Burn have just released their new double album “Of Truth and Sacrifice”. With great success: They immediately charted at #1 on the German album charts, prompting Pietro Lombardi to post on social media about the “rocker group from nowhere.” However, they are not quite as unknown as he thinks – in addition to international chart successes and sold-out tours, they also play on all the major festival stages around the world.<\/p>\n
The band combines in their music hardcore elements with extreme death & thrash metal parts, as well as partly melodic hooklines. Their lyrics address, among other things, political issues, the fight against racism and fascism, as well as for freedom and against surveillance, respect for nature and wildlife. All band members live vegan or vegetarian and actively support animal rights.<\/p>\n
Guitarist Maik Weichert tells us in the interview what we can expect on the new album, why he lives vegan, what hurdles there were in the vegan tour everyday life and gives tips for all who want to eat vegan new.<\/p>\n
Maik Weichert:<\/strong> We worked on exactly this album for several months, if not years. I think it’s a musical or at least metal world theater. A lot of influences play a role, all kinds of styles, also other, harder music. As always with Heaven Shall Burn (HSB)<\/em>, very ideologically charged, with many topics worth researching a bit further. You will also find some suggestions for this in the booklet. I think it’s worth anyone’s time to look into it if you’re into music that really wants to convey something politically. Of course, that’s not everyone’s cup of tea, or you’re not always in the mood for it. Just listen to it and make your own picture!<\/p>\n
