This track follows the release of the song "The Brimstone" a few weeks back. Listen to that here.
The story of the album teases that it's "based on true events." The press release elaborates the title of the song is a refrence to Hardin Valley, west of Knoxville, Tennessee, where vocalist Phil Bozeman grew up. Bozeman explains:
“It’s all about me as a child, and some of it is me looking back on that time from the perspective of now. Also, it’s my interpretation of my mom’s struggles and her different personalities. She had a journal that contained very disturbing and sometimes evil writings, and some of her quotes and a lot of that journal is in the lyrics.”
Pre-orders are now available. Here's the cover art.
