Stockholm hardcore band Speedway announced their debut album A LifeÆs Refrain, set for release April 11th through Revelation Records. Recorded in ╓rebro at Fascination Street Studio, co-produced by the band alongside Title FightÆs Ned and Ben Russin, with mixing and mastering by Arthur Rizk (Fucked Up, Power Trip), the album is a thrilling explosion of untamed energy. Having shared the melodic yet fast-paced ôPermission To Dream,ö featuring EkuluÆs Chris Wilson, Speedway have also unleashed their new single ôPassion Play.ö The guitar-driven single emerges as one of the album's standout tracks, seamlessly blending the intensity of hardcore with a touch of '70s rock and tambourines. Shout along lyrics yearn to be piled along to while shifting bass lines and an electrifying guitar solo bring an exhilarating dynamic. You can stream both singles below. The tracks on A LifeÆs Refrain are rooted in the spirit of 80s youth crew, yet refuse to be confined by its boundaries, evolving into a distinctive hybrid that evokes everything from Youth Of Today, Victim In Pain-era Agnostic Front, to Iron MaidenÆs Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son. In addition to EkuluÆs Chris Wilson, Viagra BoysÆ Sebastian Murphy features on ôSolitaireö with Title Fight and GlittererÆs Ned Russin lending his pipes to ôDay By Day.ö Following two EPs, a live cassette, tours and gigs across Europe, A LifeÆs Refrain embodies everything SPEEDWAY has accomplished up to this point, only better, more focused, and imbued with a sense of rebirth that resonates from the first riff to LarssonÆs closing lyrics: ôSought courage in despair. In songs that pierce the midnight airö. Bursting with lightning-fast guitar riffs, captivating songwriting, and a stroke of melancholy, this album is poised to become a landmark in Swedish hardcore and beyond. ............................................................................
