Hail The Blessed Hour
Beauty Distorted
Tulsa, Oklahoma has certainly established quite the breeding ground for promising rock and metal bands. Newcomers Hail The Blessed Hour are working to keep that promise alive with the slaughtering riffs, breakdowns, and wide ranging vocals of their new full-length, Beauty Distorted. The band has already taken to the road in support of the release and has been showcased in the past with notable acts within the metal-core genre over their seven-year journey. Although the album has the making of a strong release, its influences are almost too distinct, and the generic nature of the genre has left this band a victim of its own derivatives. Beauty Distorted is nonetheless a solid effort where praise is due through this Sancrosanct Records imprint. [Sancrosanct] Tyler Strickland
