Today, Long Island, NY based band HEAVYHEX announce their debut album, True To You, set for release May 3rd on Bridge Nine Records. The ten songs on the album dive deep into the realm of personal struggles, societal issues, and the demand for equality. Collaborating with producer Jay Maas (Love Letter, Defeater), the band channeled their collective energy and creativity to shape guitar tones that strike a balance of aggression, clarity and emotion, accompanied by fast and hard-hitting percussion. Having teased with early single “You Can’t Stay Here,” HEAVYHEX now unleash the title track “True To You.” The song builds off high-energy guitars and impassioned vocals with a raw edge before driving into lush melodies.
The video for the song was directed by Richie Duque, and on it vocalist Dave Gastiaburo comments: "The video closely follows the theme of the song. It’s about the importance of not folding to the pressure of your 9 to 5, while continuing to prioritize the things that you are passionate about. To stay true to yourself."
You can watch the video for “True To You” above or on YouTube HERE, stream the single HERE, and the album is available on vinyl for preorder now through the Bridge Nine Records webstore.
Formed in 2020, HEAVYHEX released their debut EP, Stare, in 2022, followed by a two song single, Give Yourself Away, that same year.
