Single Blurb on "PBSS": With four albums under their belt, over 6M video views for their hit “Boogie Man” to date, and newly signed to Napalm Records for the next sonic adventure, Hungarian quartet THE HELLFREAKS performed in almost every European country, including major festivals, and on top toured the US in 2015. Dominated by modern metal and nostalgic post-hardcore, pop and skate punk, their new alternative metal single “PBSS” marks the title track of their upcoming, addictive record Pitch Black Sunset. Album Blurb: Founded in 2009, the modern metal outfit emerges with a stellar discography and their massive psychobilly-punk hit "Boogie Man", which has gathered multi-millions of views on YouTube. With their fifth album, Pitch Black Sunset, the rising band waves the flag of a new generation of metal and punk. THE HELLFREAKS kick off with vocalist Zsuzsa “Shakey Sue” Radnóti’s trademark sing-along-screams, as “Old Tomorrows” raises the pulse with fast-paced punk mixed with groovy metal beats. Like the story of Jekyll and Hyde, the upstarts unveil their angry side on “Hit Me Where It Hurts”, led by electronic rock as distorted, rhythmic guitar lines set the pace with catchy metalcore beats. The effortless force of singer Sue resembles an earthquake, with her raspy punk vocal attack. Followed by the restless track “Chaos”, boisterous thrash lines meet pop-punk-infused metal before closing with a Tom Morello-worthy solo. THE HELLFREAKS showcases the individual musical expertise of its members when chunky riffs merge with strong beats and highly aggressive shouts, while bittersweet vocal lines call out for a feelgood song. Performing in almost every European country and gaining more awareness via their American tour in 2015, the well-experienced band from Budapest proves with Pitch Black Sunset that they are more than ready to kickstart their next chapter!
