NEWS: Haint drink poison?

As they reach the end of their first decade together Northern Ireland based Progressive Metal act  Haint are already thinking about the next. Formed in 2016 from the ashes of Condemned, Neanderthal and Stand-Up Guy, the band won Metal 2 the Masses in 2022 which secured them a slot on the New Blood Stage at Bloodstock Open Air Festival. Since then they’ve performed across the UK and Ireland at Hordes Festival, Siege of Limerick and The Crypt, as well as supporting URNE. Now they have six fresh cuts recorded to form “Every Scar Tells A Story” which will be released on 12th February with “Poison The Stream” as the first taste.

Darren Lavery (Bass/Vocals): “Every Scar Tells A Story is a culmination of our musical journey over the last three-four years. We’ve grown so much as musicians and these songs represent the best of the two of us. Lyrically, there are a lot of personal topics going on. When it came time to put the album together, Ian [Booth (Guitar/Vocals)] had gotten big into the art of kintsugi (repairing with gold) and the lyrics offered a lyrical similarity – personal journeys embedded in resilience and self-reflection.”
