Only Heavy Metal

Former IN FLAMES bassist Peter Iwers has announced his departure from CYHRA, the band featuring vocalist Jake E (ex-AMARANTHE), guitarist Jesper Strömblad (ex-IN FLAMES), guitarist Euge Valovirta (ex-SHINING), and drummer Alex Landenburg (LUCA TURILLI'S RHAPSODY).

CYHRA will continue as a four-piece but Peter's bass lines will still be heard at the band's upcoming shows. Instead of being on stage, his tracks will be reproduced by a computer, "Mr. ASUS."

"It's sad to part ways with Peter as a member, but we are still very good friends and will always be," CYHRA said in a statement. "He has our full support in this decision and we wish him nothing else than the best in the future."

2019-09-27 - Boosted by the success of their 2017 debut, »Letters To Myself«, modern melodic metal highflyers CYHRA are using that momentum and pushing forward with a new album - the sophomore »No Halos In Hell« will see the light of day on November 15th via Nuclear Blast.

Founded by vocalist Jake E (ex-AMARANTHE) and guitarist Jesper Strömblad (ex-IN FLAMES), CYHRA has gone from being reminiscent of the duo's former bands to having a unique identity. In fact, »No Halos In Hell« is one of those rare albums that defies being neatly placed in a genre box; coming out heavy and dynamic, the record is loaded with melodic vocal hooks that stay nailed to the brain for days, achieving maximum impact throughout. Fusing a relentless energy and heaviness the best way possible was CYHRA's main focus this time out. The addition of guitarist Euge Valovirta (ex-SHINING) as a full member has raised the creative process to a level where, according to Jake E, "Everyone is playing to the point of what is best for the song.”

Now, the day has finally come for the band to unleash a music video for their first single and lead-off track 'Out Of My Life'. Prepare for trouble and check out the new clip, directed by Swedish mastermind Patric Ullaeus, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lMNElvE_hA

Produced by Jacob Hansen and co-produced by the band's very own Jake E, the album is filled with 12 live-oriented songs, ensuring maximum catchiness.

Today Cyhra announce their new studio album titled The Vertigo Trigger, which will be released on August 18th via Nuclear Blast Records Along with the album announcement, the Swedes also deliver new single 'Life Is A Hurricane', which is accompanied by a new music video and can be watched here: https://youtu.be/Oe9Cq0TbTKo
