HARPAZO just unleashed their debut album "The Crucible," and it’s an absolute beast! Thanks to Rockshots Records, this progressive metal rock opera is here to melt your face and blow your mind. Think dystopian future vibes with a mix of progressive, power, symphonic, and Celtic metal.
HARPAZO’s lineup is stacked with legends: guitarist Marc Centanni and multi-talented Gary Wehrkamp (Shadow Gallery, Ayreon) leading the charge, along with DC Cooper (Royal Hunt), Mark Zonder (Fates Warning, Warlord), and a ton of other metal heavyweights. If that doesn’t get you hyped, I don’t know what will.
Centanni sums it up best: "This album is a big, juicy concept for prog fans to sink their teeth into. Who better to orchestrate this madness than prog-metal legends like Gary Wehrkamp, DC Cooper, and Mark Zonder? We've got some of the most passionate and finest musicians pouring their souls into this project.
I’m super proud of this album, and trust me, you don’t want to miss it!"
To celebrate the release, they’ve dropped a dynamic lyric video for "Ichor," featuring DC Cooper on vocals. This track is a perfect example of HARPAZO’s insane range – from soaring operatic vocals to dramatic symphonic orchestration and melodic guitars. The story kicks off with Michael Lightborne, our anti-hero, becoming a cybernetic assassin for Solomon Industries. It’s a rollercoaster of a ride that’ll get stuck in your head for days.
