Colorado thrashers HAVOK have signed a deal with BLKIIBLK, making them labelmates with Megadeth, Biohazard and more. The first fruit of this new partnership comes in the form of \u201cFifth Generation Warfare\u201c, a brand new single which you can find a lyric video for below. On signing with the aforementioned label, the band offered:<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re excited to sign with a new label that is hungry and eager to make a name for themselves, while still being led by a seasoned veteran. The music we\u2019re releasing with BLKIIBLK is a continuation of Havok\u2019s history of fast and tight heavy metal and we can\u2019t wait for everyone to hear what we\u2019ve been working on.\u201d<\/p>\n
As for this new single, the group added:<\/p>\n
\u201c\u2018Fifth Generation Warfare\u2018 is the first release with our new guitarist, Brett Rechtfertig. The song showcases a wide variety of HAVOK sounds; incorporating guitar harmonies, punk attitude, pummeling drums, bass lines that deviate from the guitar parts, and a message about a gnarly topic, while still leaning into optimism. A lot of HAVOK lyrics discuss negative topics, but we always try to put a positive spin on things.\u201d<\/p>\n
