New 2022 All Originals Studio Album! WAV Audio Files.

Recorded in Ed Gein’s shed at deafening, sanity cracking levels during hours of darkness using amps, instruments and microphones stolen from the dead.

The Hangmen would like to sincerely thank ourselves, we really couldn’t do this without us.

Dedicated to Spoony.

"Ok, first track is called 'Hell's Vagina'. Jesus what a crazed song. It tells of strip club massacres, live autopsies and worse to a pounding psychotic beat from start to finish. The Hangmen haven't been rewriting themselves or getting trapped into catering to a demographic and they certainly haven't mellowed with age. As the album progresses, normally innocent talents of musicianship and songwriting are not only abused and mutilated to serve the band's dark riotous signature, they are a cut (slash?) above the regular."

"As half-expected this sounds like they walked into a (very dark) room, plugged in and raised all Hell. Their hectic raw live feel flows throughout, the band working well together and generally sidestepping cliches. Make no mistake this is the deranged, intense stuff they are renowned for with the same trashy aesthetic but with some progression to show for their years in the recording wilderness".

"For a three piece 'niche' band the tracks are quite diverse, blurring the lines between rockabilly & punk whilst settling into neither, a success not a failing but fair to say probably a marketing nightmare. When they evoke 1950's Rock & Roll it's not bobby sox and ponytails that grab their attention it's the girl wearing a 'Collar Bomb'. Through the dark gritty blues stomp of 'Hexing' there is a feeling that you the listener won't sleep well tonight, but you're tapping your feet all the same. 'House Of Bone','Thermonuclear Whore'...they can still pull off 150% Proof Psychobilly with a twist like they were born doing it, then drag up some creepy retro rock or even proto-punk channeled through 'Evil Genius'. An eerie song called 'Sweet Suicide Tears' is even more disturbing for how 'poppy' the tune actually is. 'Born To Die' rocks and rolls like a train, 'Walk With A Devil' drags you off the ride into an unsettling dimension that makes everything before it actually seem like a better place to be, so you hit the album repeat button! They all gel scarily well as a whole without ever compromising the bands very basic sound. The whole experience is manic, moody, unpredictable, obscene and even makes you secretly grin whilst hoping nobody notices. Melodic, tense, footstomping, hipshaking, gear-grinding, shape-shifting, dark, lawless rock n' roll - The Hangmen once again cut a trail where nobody else would have gone and few will try to follow."

"It is what it is, unapologetic...and even by Psychobilly standards savage and brutal. Set this to play and thirteen tracks later you'll wonder what the Hell's just happened for the last forty minutes. Play it again and you'll notice things you hadn't noticed the first time and wonder how that was possible, like one of those unsettling movies you have to watch over and over...and over."

"...Punkabilly/Rockabilly/Psychobilly or just plain simple Trash Punk band, yes its dark lyrically and yes it delves deep into the bowels of musical darkness, but what it also does is uplift and excite around every corner. Thirteen songs and thirteen moments that all gel together, yet they also all stand alone as songs that have there own lives and tweaks in style, kicking off with ‘Hell’s Vagina’ you are immediately struck by the title then struck in the ears by a three minute stonker of a melodic filled opening of the doors down into hell itself,. This song gives the listener a window into just how this album ticks, melody is tinged with raw blood curdling vocals that still find the time to show some remorse to the listener, take ‘Collarbomb’ it kinda shows some love in a deathly and of way, then there’s the track of the album ‘Sweet Suicide Tears’ with its straight up Rockabilly rhythm and a hook that grabs you like a lamb to the slaughter, they both show how this album does have a soft side, even if its a only in the musical sense. What you get the sense of throughout the ensuing tracks on this stand out album, is the need to push the rules here and there, there’s no need to stick to Psychobilly or jump straight down the throat of the Punkabilly lion. What's even more important about The Hangmen and this album, is its need to be nothing more than a band doing things their way, creating a sound and songs that can never be anything else but unmistakably unique, ‘True Hate Never Dies’ drip of this, a guitar sound that sends chills down the spine, a bass that drops in everywhere like a cluster bomb, drum beats that have all the gale and power of a panther stomping through the songs, then the vocal tears heads off where needed and soothes the ear when wanted. Death never has to be the end, The Hangmen will always be kicking on the lid of the coffin from the inside, this album will most definitely shake your head from your shoulders, then stick it back on and say “get dancing!”

Dave Diamond of Slap That Bass: Hell’s Vagina – ..put your seatbelt on….engage and get ready for The Hangmen…here we g-o-o-o—o… fantastic high octane tune to kick start this ninth album… fab growling raw vocals from Loz, and loving the eerie guitar solo, Andy is giving it some with his awesome slapping bass and top notch drumming from Garry…loving the staggered sections and the catchy chorus really does lift this song to above and beyond. House of Bone – slow start to this number, then boom we are off once again…another powerhouse track that really does tear the flesh off the bones, I really love the varied tempo of the mid-section breakdown of this original song. Collarbomb – “Telling the story of the girl in the collarbomb and all the eyes are on you! “What makes you tick tick tick tick? “Everybody stand right back!”…This one’s a really catchy mid-tempo tune with a fab guitar lick running through it…and ends with the collar bomb exploding…. Great track. The Necronomicon – a much slower haunting number…showcasing the bands musicianship and love the change of speed on the chorus and then more changes during the solo. Great lyrics on this original track that’s “gonna getcha one by one…join us!” This track is mostly written around the script of The Evil Dead and thus explains the calm, mad, calm structure to reflect how the movie roller coaters! The Letter – this song is 3 minutes of rock-boning-billy…great higher mix on the drums and bass on this one makes the rhythm section really cut through… once again rip-roaring vocals… Hexing – Another very well lyrical written tune..”there’s blood on the table and markings on the floor”, great slapping bass and nice drum rolls around the kit mixed in with a slower twang guitar and a great vocal make this a perfect horror-tastic number! Born To Die – Staggered section to start this one.. Loz really going for it to get all those vocals in each verse… fantastic instru-mental section..hey hey hey… a nice heavy floor tom beat adds spice to this number…. nice backing vocals on the hey’s…. this one’s a real screamer! Thermonuclear Whore – Boom…here we go with another powerhouse overloading track…..would love to see this one played live….for sure it’s not going to keep you in your seat but straight on that dancefloor….look out…arms a-swinging! Evil Genius – Short burst verses on this number that goes twice round then into the chorus we go. Another very well worked out original from this trio and musically very well written…. “you can’t lose you can’t win, silently the evil genius grins!” The Great Brain Robbery – Loving the up and down vocal variation style on this song….this one has an anthem vibe to it… another octane overload tune for sure from this trio. Sweet Suicide Tears – this one’s a bit more melodic with its rhythmic overtones and chord style guitar interludes…then it explodes into the chorus in true Hangmen style…at 2min 20 love the breakdown section once again. True Hate Never Dies – never a true word has been spoken….this one explodes like a volcano erupting.. another great track to been seen live, this song has everything…nice drum section and then enter the guitar solo…. A real powerhouse song. Walk With A Devil – nice instrumental start to this the final song of this 13 track release…a great slow stomping number…nice backing vocals and great drumming on this one, nice repeats at the end Could see this number being a stand out track in a movie for 2023…so watch out gang!! This is their ninth album, contains all originals and is packed with raucous octane overload tunes that will leave you wanting to hear their next release… If you love powerhouse kick ass non stop numbers then look no further!
