Having dieted on feedback and asphalt since their ’07 debut, 1000HERTZ have returned from the wilderness to berth their melodic Punk/Core vessel in the shape of sophomore recording ‘…Are Burning Maps’.
As debut ‘Input The Output’ unleashed itself via renowned indie label In At The Deep End Records (Gallows, Architects, Beecher, Send More Paramedics etc) 1000HERTZ garnered support from all areas for their rapid-fire attack and visceral delivery. Notably Dan Carter and Mike Davies of Radio 1 fame got the boys on rotation on their weekly rock and punk shows and shortly after followed a slew of deservedly high-praise press reviews serving to affirm the buzz and enforce the bands desire to whip up a storm in the UK Punk & Hardcore scene.
So the spring board uncoiled and the 1K travelling circus landed firmly on the road touring relentlessly alongside the likes of Death By Stereo, Ignite, H2O, Strike Anywhere, Death Before Dishonour, The Unseen, Terror, Outcry Collective, The Ghost Of A Thousand, The Computers (plus many more…). The boys then destroyed the compass as they ferried south off the UK and hit the European mainland taking in everywhere from Spain across to Romania, punishing stages and enjoying every dirty second of it.
Once the money ran out it was time to go home and get working on the next chapter…
‘…Are Burning Maps’ see’s 1000HERTZ return on fiery form with a raised fist full of brand new hook-filled anthems in the cannon. Lyrically focussed and musically refined this record takes off where the previous ended and catapults the listener through an exhilarating mix of melodic Punk-Rock meshed with forthright Hardcore adrenaline.
The decision to produce the record entirely by themselves was an agonising risk as the band navigated rehearsal rooms, backrooms and their own houses abusing begged, borrowed and stolen equipment. The result however is an outstanding testament to their work ethic and the reward a vindication of their decision.
With the albums themes complimented by artwork from the talents of Thomas Lacey (The Ghost Of A Thousand), ‘…Are Burning Maps’ is an enveloping statement of change and finding new direction. A cathartic and hope-fuelled narrative of breaking out and living & dying on your own terms, however you choose those terms to be.
It’s a long, unknown road ahead and 1000HERTZ can’t wait to ride it.
