OH HAI NEW HAVOK SONG

Why, I was just complimenting Havok on the cover art for their new album, Time is Up, earlier this week — and now they’ve gone ahead and debuted a new song, “Scumbag in Disguise,” over at Metal Underground. It’s like they wanted to prove that I wasn’t wrong when I predicted “that the music will more than match the aardvark baby impalingness of the cover.” Because I know there’s this perception that both Vince and I myself hate all re-thrash, which isn’t true — we just hate ALMOST all re-thrash. But the power of Havok’s rockingness is so undeniable that I can’t bring myself to say a bad word about them.

Check out “Scumbag in Disguise” here, then let us know what you think in the comments section. And don’t forget that we’re streaming another song from the album, “Fatal Intervention,” here.

Time is Up will be released via Candlelight (How romantic!) on March 29.
