HEADSTONES – New Album In The Works; Pre-Production Clip Featuring New Song Available

Canadian rock veterans the Headstones are currently writing songs for the new record. They have posted a pre-production featuring Love & Fury album producer Chris Osti, live at the Killing Room Studio. Check out a snippet of the new song “For Your Consideration” below. The new album is due out in 2017.

The Headstones will perform a Halloween show on October 31st at The Venue in London, England. Go to this location for more details and ticket information.

The Headstones recently issued the following update:

“Introducing… Lyle the Executioner – now drumming for the Headstones on stage and in the studio. Obviously, he gives zero fucks.”

Lyle replaces Dale Harrison who left the band earlier this year; Dale’s statement reads as follows:

“It is with mixed emotion that I announce my departure from the Headstones drum chair to make way for other endeavors. It has been a 22 year adventure that has now come to a close for me with the band,” says Dale Harrison.

“In May ‘94 I was recruited to tour Picture Of Health, record and help finish the second album Teeth & Tissue; after the departure of Mark Gibson – the drummer who helped craft the first disc. I was accepted as the new member by our fans and have been the drummer ever since. It is my hope that Headstones fans will show whomever replaces me the same respect I’ve enjoyed ever since. In 2003 after 9 ½ years of hardcore touring and five albums later the Headstones took a much needed hiatus. In 2011 we reunited and continued to hammer out our brand of chaos to incredible audiences and played slews of awesome gigs across Canada and bordering US cites. During that time we also accomplished production of two fresh albums and a 12” vinyl single.

I will always reflect on this time in my life with great pride but I feel it is now time to move on and follow my own aspirations. I wish the best to the boys in the band whom I’ve called brothers for many years. I will miss the team at Bernie Breen management who were and will always be like family to me. Perhaps one day our schedules will align again! Until then, adios amigos! All the best! Be well! Oh and stay tuned folks for what projects I’ve got coming up! PVTA!”
