Bangover - Hibernation Devastation (2025)

London-based thrash metal outfit Bangover announced their new album, "Hibernation Devastation," with a release date of May 9th, 2025. The album is an independent digital release. Prior to its full release, the band had been performing some of the new material live. A live review from a show on April 19, 2025, at 229, London, by GBHBL.com, mentioned the band was "fresh of announcing their brand-new album, 'Hibernation Devastation'."

The same live review noted that it was "extremely cool to see the new stuff, Thrashional Rail and Hibernation Devastation, go down so well too. The former is one of their best." 1 This suggests an energetic and well-received live debut for some of the album's tracks. Metal Noise also acknowledged the then-upcoming album in an interview feature with the band, indicating anticipation for its release.  

Bangover formed in 2011 and has been described as playing "tongue in cheek metal," not taking themselves too seriously while delivering "heavy grooves and songs that next never seem to slow down," according to an interview with The Moshville Times. Their influences include major thrash acts as well as bands like Evile, Gama Bomb, and Testament. The Metal Archives lists the band's current lineup as Andreas Morelli (vocals), Jack Taylor (guitars, vocals), Scott Grimble (guitars, vocals), Alexander Comley (bass), and Marco Antonio (drums).
