HALESTORM is getting into the homestretch with the recording of its new album. The band’s fourth full-length disc is being recorded at Dark Horse Recording studios just outside Nashville with Nick Raskulinecz, an acclaimed producer who has previously worked with RUSH, KORN, ALICE IN CHAINS and DEFTONES, in addition to having produced HALESTORM‘s third covers EP, “ReAniMate 3.0: The CoVeRs eP”, which came out in January 2017.

HALESTORM guitarist Joe Hottinger told the SiriusXM show “Trunk Nation” that the band’s follow-up to 2015’s “Into The Wild Life” will contain some of “the heaviest stuff we’ve ever done.”

“Into The Wild Life” was criticized by some HALESTORM fans for veering too far into pop music territory.
