Hardcore-metal mainstays Cruel Hand are making some serious noise again after stepping back from the spotlight for a bit. This Maine-based crew, who have been embedded deep in the underground for 20 years, just unleashed a fresh recording titled „Promo 2026.“
As the band stated on their socials, this release serves as „proof of life.“ The promo features a total of four demo tracks, perfectly encapsulated by the motto: „2 new 2 old 2 hard 2 heal.“
Since their inception in 2006, Cruel Hand has forged a unique sound straddling the line between New York Hardcore and thrash.
The entire release is available now on their Bandcamp. If you’re into a mix of raw hardcore and heavy metal riffs, this is an absolute must-add for your spring playlist.
We’ll be keeping a close eye on the situation—it looks like something big is brewing in the Cruel Hand camp!
