Lower Hollow Release Debut Single: “Living Ghosts”

South African 5-Piece Lower Hollow see the light of somewhat darker times with their debut single “Living Ghosts”, a sledgehammer beating at the heels of fast hardcore, melodic broodiness and heavy lows.

Comprising of South African metal royalty, Lower Hollow cut their teeth behind closed doors during COVID-19 refining a new sound and a viable source of top-tier intensity and energy. Lower Hollow’s debut album Bloom & Expire arrives on the 31st of March 2023 via Mongrel Records.

The debut single is inspired by psychological and emotional abuse at the hands of someone you once loved.

Lower Hollow vocalist Estian Smith explains

“Ultimately the song is about letting go of what is gone and that which can never come back. Accepting betrayal for what it is and turning your back on the past.”

Carving a new path through the remnants of broken ideals. The world stood still and watched as we all shifted priorities, some losing everything while others faced indefinite change. An uncertain future; the end of an era.

An idea birthed out of frustration for old flames dying, Lower Hollow cut its teeth behind closed doors for nearly two years. Refining a new sound, shaping a moment in history – a viable source of intensity and energy.

A raw wound grinding against the salt mill, viscous and relentless. The band sees the light of somewhat darker times. Their debut album beats at the heels of fast hardcore, melodic broodiness and heavy lows.
