US heavy rock and metal champions HIPPIE DEATH CULT release a thunderous first excerpt off their “Live at the Star Theater” album, to be issued on May 9th release on Heavy Psych Sounds. The band will be touring Europe extensively this spring, including various festival appearances.
The band says: “We’ve been toying around with the idea of doing a live album for a while, considering our music has a whole different energy and vibrance to it in any given live situation, so it’s cool to have a well-recorded document of a little snapshot from this era of the band’s history. It’s something we plan on doing more regularly, as we progress along our path and evolve. We toured a whole hell of a lot in 2024 across the United States, Europe and Canada, and this was our final show of the year, which took place in our hometown of Portland, Oregon. We figured it would be a special place to try and capture an audio and video document of a full concert, because Portland has always been our rock, a very supportive hometown with whom we’ve always shared a genuine connection. It’s raw. It’s live. It’s us.”
