CONVENT GUILT announces today the artwork of their much anticipated debut full-length “Guns for Hire” which will be released on LP by Cruz del Sur Music and on CD by Shadow Kingdom Records. As you can see, the painting of these four heavy metal horsemen riding onto a barren horizon hints at the best graphic tradition of classics such as MANILLA ROAD, CIRITH UNGOL and other obscure and timeless classic hard rock and metal.

This is what CONVENT GUILT from Sydney, Australia amply delivers: it sounds like a mix of the glorious and gritty ‘70s hard rock, the darker side of the NWOBHM and early ‘80s heavy metal from both sides of the Atlantic. Formed in 2010, the Guilt released their initial 4 track demo in mid-2012 and recently recorded their debut LP ‘Guns for hire’. Featuring veterans of the Aussie metal scene, CONVENT GUILT is a relatively new name – but it’s destined to conquer the heart and soul of any fan devoted to the early 80s metal sound.

In the classic tradition of every NWOBHM band, CONVENT GUILT‘s debut contains 8 killer tracks:

Angels in Black Leather
Don’t Close Your Eyes
Perverse Altar
They Took Her Away
Helldriver
Desert Brat
Convicts At Arms
Stockade

Raw, dirty and yet terribly catchy guitar riffs (some even hinting at early AC/DC!) will carry you back to the golden age of metal: song titles such as “Angels in Black Leather”, “Desert Brat” or “Perverse Altar” tell more of what you will get in this album than any words could… CONVENT GUILT‘s filthy vocals and its massive rhythmic section finally produce an overdose of muddy rock and roll that will find its best expression during savage live shows. This is an album that smells of dust, sweat and energy – basically what metal is made of!

CRUZ DEL SUR MUSIC announces the release of CONVENT GUILT debut “Guns for Hire” on October 7^th 2014 on vinyl format.

Convent Guilt is a heavy metal band from Sydney, Australia, formed in 2010 that has released their initial 4 track demo in mid-2012. Featuring veteran members of the Australian metal scene, the band draws its influences from glorious and gritty ‘70s hard rock, the darker side of the NWOBHM and early ‘80s heavy metal from both sides of the Atlantic.

CONVENT GUILT‘s vocalist and bassist Ian remarked that “‘Guns for hire‘ was recorded at A Sharp Studios in Sydney and features 8 tracks of rough yet melodic hard rock/heavy metal. It is more polished than the Convent Guilt demo though we think it keeps the same charm. It sounds like four hard rock renegades riding headlong to oblivion. Get on board!”

Keep checking for updates and song previews, as “Guns for Hire” will definitely turn some heads in 2014!!
