Alternative metal band Overhaul is set to release their debut album 'Notes By An Unstable Muser' in spring 2017. Three years after releasing their EP ‘Daybreak’, the band reinvents itself by replacing garish virtuosity with melancholic, romantic expression.
The new songs sound more serious and heavier than predecessor ‘Daybreak’, an EP the band recorded at home and released in 2014. The album's ten songs are more compact and powerful in their delivery through a focus on layered guitars and vocals. The album will be preceded by the release of lead-single ‘Blue Box’, which is a song about the loss of love, displaying a fascination for the ephemeral and temporary nature of happiness. Other tracks on the record display a similar notion of romanticism that is often lacking in other complex music genres.
‘I’m a hopeless romantic’, says vocalist Samuel de Vries when he explains the album title.
