Heriot have released new single At The Fortress Gate.
The track, taken from the Bristol bruisers’ impending debut album Devoured By The Mouth Of Hell, comes with a video directed by Harry Steel, depicting the band’s sets at Download, Hellfest, Rock Am Ring and other festivals this summer. Watch the clip and hear the song below.
Heriot comment: “At The Fortress Gate blends elements from both our early and newer influences. It’s been one of our favourite unreleased tracks to perform live over this festival season, and we can’t wait to add it in the set for the Fit For An Autopsy tour later this year!”
Heriot formed in 2016 and relaunched in 2020 with the release of their single Cleansed Existence. Their 2022 EP, Profound Morality, was released via Church Road Records and received critical acclaim. The band have since played shows with the likes of Lamb Of God, Architects, Rolo Tomassi, Thy Art Is Murder and more.
After signing to Century Media Records in 2023, Heriot put out standalone single Demure. Devoured… will be released by the label on September 27, and alongside At The Fortress Gate will feature previous singles Siege Lord and Foul Void.
Heriot will promote Devoured… by opening a European tour for Sylosis, Fit For An Autopsy and Darkest Hour in November and December. See the full list of dates below.
