Lady Beast share new track and set release date for new album
On March 28th internationally, Dying Victims Productions will release Lady Beast’s highly anticipated fifth album, The Inner Alchemist, on CD and vinyl LP formats. And now, Deaf Forever magazine’s website premieres the new track “Inner Alchemist.” Hear Lady Beast‘s title track “Inner Alchemist” in its entirety exclusively HERE.
Since 2009, Lady Beast have been flying the flag for refined HEAVY METAL. The band hail from the Steel City of Pittsburgh, forming with firm influences ranging from Motörhead, Dio, Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, and Mercyful Fate. From there, Lady Beast have weaved their own unique style of metal with silky-yet-sharp harmonizing guitars and the soaring, rally-the-warriors vocals of frontwoman Deborah Levine. All the while, they’ve retained their blue-collar roots but have never forgotten the majesty of metal in its earliest, most classic form: fantasy, magic, epic adventure, and of course ANTHEMS.
While it’s been five long years since their last full-length – but only a year after Dying Victims stepped in to reissue on vinyl their second album, 2015’s pivotal Lady Beast II – Lady Beast suitably explode from the gates with palpitating urgency on The Inner Alchemist. Mind you, the band aren’t necessarily trying to break any speed limits here on LP#5, but rather, it’s the power, poise, and all-out swagger they exude on The Inner Alchemist which instills the sensation that Lady Beast have only been away mere minutes. Thankfully, little has changed in their sturdy aesthetic – authentically ‘80s-entrenched HEAVY METAL that struts and gallops with equal aplomb, buttressed by instantly-hummable riffs and a palpable atmosphere of swords & sorcery – but if there’s one main distinction, it’s that the production on The Inner Alchemist highlights their heaviness, giving crunch when proceedings go locomotive and majesty when those proceedings go harmonic. As always, Levine’s passionate & powerful vocals are as engaging as ever: emotive and narrative in equal measure, still standing tall atop the keep-it-true pack.
Graced with evocative cover artwork, Lady Beast are sure stirring up something with The Inner Alchemist! In the meantime, hear the brand-new title track “Inner Alchemist” exclusively HERE, courtesy of Deaf Forever, Germany’s defenders of the true. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:
