French doom metal pioneers HANGMAN´S CHAIR release their brand new album Saddiction via Nuclear Blast.
Together with the album the band released their new visualizer for ‘Healed?‘ a song where every heavy riff and slow beat reveals the torments of the mind. The harrowing lyrics evoke depression, anxiety and inner struggles, capturing pain and isolation in an oppressive, cathartic atmosphere.
HANGMAN’S CHAIR comments about ‘Healed?‘: “The last song of an album is always a special one. “Healed?” is no stranger to that process, it was thought and written to be the final act of Saddiction since the beginning and it sums up all the themes of the album. It’s a classic Hangman’s Chair tune, that opens a new chapter. The question mark at the end leaves you the choice, are you healed or just denying?”
About Saddiction: “Feeling depressed on St Valentine’s day ? February 14th is the perfect day to release our new album, when the ultra modern solitude of big cities starts to kick in.
Saddiction or 9 ways to say I love you. Now, please don’t blame us for your saddiction, It has always been here.”
