Since the beginning of 2013, Affection has been roaring by mixing elements mainly from modern rock and alternative metal. Striving from Helsinki, Finland, this indomitable power engine combines hard-hitting guitar riffs, rhythmic energy and memorable melodies with rich and powerful lyrics. The band is known for their explosive live shows, and their new album “Remnants” delivers a versatile and relentless experience with a certain depth. “Highway of Denial” is the new single from Affection outstanding album “Remnants”, which will be released on 21st of January 2022 via Omnicult Records.
“Highway of Denial” shows much potential of Affection, playing a blend of Modern Rock / Alternative Metal influences. This track is a musical package with every instrument hitting you instantly. Their energy-ridden style of heavy music establishes a variety of sounds of their own. To be honest, “Highway of Denial” is the first track I ever listened to from Affection and it inspired me to listen to their previous music creations which are incredible.
“Highway of Denial” is one of their most strong and perfect tracks to date. Including hard-hitting guitars giving the base of the music, powerful drumming, and a significant vocal performance from Andy H.C. cement this track as their most influential and distinct music they composed. Affection blends the alternative metal effects extremely well into their music.
The guitar riffs are fast and harder like in most earlier singles, thanks to Olli Rinnevalli’s robust performance, running through the energy level of the track amuses the listeners to the core. Reda Kramdi’s drumming is proficient and sounds more immersed and specified, heightening the speed of the track, which can be heard rapidly upon first listen. Bass is finely heard, and when Panu Nykänen is heard, it is such a remarkable thing to listen to.
Andy H.C.’s vocal performance is sharp and unique as his powerful voice rallies through the track. Throughout the track, Andy maintains his tremendous vocals perfectly. Heavy groove’s, fast drumming, strong lyrics, and enthralling vocals will undoubtedly make this a standout of the upcoming album. Overall, “Highway of Denial” with its enlightening lyrics, influential instrumentation, tight vocals, and a metal rock attitude will certainly set this band miles ahead in the music industry.
