Post-hardcore five-piece Hail The Sun have launched their latest single, “Under The Floor.” This is the second single to be released from the upcoming album.
The quintet have recently announced their next record, Divine Inner Tension. Due to release via Equal Vision Records on 11 August. You can pre-order/pre-save the record here. Frontman Donovan Melero says of the new record:
“This is the first album we've written that didn't come exclusively from a place of suffering or pain. Sadness, heartbreak and nihilism all inspire, but during the pandemic, there was a big shift, and this is more about retelling the story — retelling stories about everyday perceptions. Everything comes from within, so I thought that maybe I don't have to suffer to feel inspired.”
Bad Dad (occasionally called Ed) has been on the periphery of the punk and punk-adjacent scene for over twenty years. While many contributors to this site have musical experience and talent, Ed's musical claim to fame comes from his time in arguably the most punk rock Blockbuster Video district in NJ where he worked alongside members of Blanks 77, Best Hit TV and Brian Fallon. He is more than just an awful father to his 2 daughters, he is also a dreadful husband, a subpar writer, a terrible dresser and has a severe deficiency in all things talent… but hey, at least he's self-aware, amirite?
