Himalayas – announce new album ‘Bad Star’ + new single ‘Afterlife just released

HIMALAYAS have announced their new album BAD STAR for release on April 25th via Nettwerk Music Group.
 
Marking the announcement the Cardiff rock band have released the brand new single ‘Afterlife’, a cavernous pensive anthem with bold, strutting riffs, which reflects on the promise of great things being just over the horizon, but always out of reach. The explosive apocalyptic video directed by Yoni Ben-Haim features the band delivering a scorching performance among a fiery decimating meteor shower.
 
Regarding the single frontman Joe Williams says, “Everyone prays for something better, or thinks there’s something better coming once you get past the right now. I wanted to explore the idea that maybe there won’t be something better than what we have currently and embracing that.”
 
‘Afterlife’ follows a string of successful singles taken from the forthcoming album BAD STAR including the energetic thrashy groove of ‘Hung Up’, the creepy alt-rock of ‘Nothing Higher’, the ferocious stomp of ‘Cave Paintings’ (selected in Radio 1’s 2024 Big Hitters) as well another hit with ‘What If…?’ which reached No.2 in the Kerrang Magazine Chart while being added to the Kerrang Radio Playlist as well as receiving support from Radio X and across Radio 1 from the Rock Show, Indie Show and BBC Introducing.
