Belgian dark rock outfit DIABLO BLVD has just launched 2 brand new music videos. 'Animal' and 'Sing From The Gallows' are the first 2 singles taken from the highly awaited new album, »Zero Hour«, which is scheduled worldwide for September 22th, 2017 via Nuclear Blast. Today, PEARL EUROPE premieres the drum playthrough for 'Animal' by Kris Martens. Check out the video here: http://www.pearleurope.com/news/news/item/news/diablo-blvd-release-playthrough-video-animal/
Vocalist Alex Agnew comments about the album: “We spent almost a year writing and preproducing the album. The actual recording took about a month. 'Animal' was recorded on two different drumkits which you can hear during the intro of the song. We definitely had an idea about how the album was supposed to sound and we tried very much to stick to our original idea of a dark, moody yet aggressive album. The fact that we are also living in troubled times politically, socially and economically has also had a heavy influence on the sound and lyrics of the record. The turn of the century and a new millennium usually signals great change and upheaval, and right now it feels like the world is holding it's breath before taking a jump into the unknown. That breath is »Zero Hour«.”

»Zero Hour« is a dark eleven-track groove monster with haunting melodies, huge guitar riffs, driving bass and pounding drums. Taking their inspiration from both classic metal acts like TYPE O NEGATIVE, METALLICA and BLACK SABBATH and eighties new wave bands like KILLING JOKE, SISTERS OF MERCY and GANG OF FOUR, DIABLO BLVD craft a unique sound ideally suited for these dark times. The perfect soundtrack to the end times!
