Irish Progressive Rock/Metal band The Vicious Head Society have unveiled official lyric video for the first single, “The Edge of Time” taken from their upcoming album, “Call of the Void,” set for release on July 24, 2026.
Watch the lyric video for “The Edge Of Time” via the YouTube player below:
Graham Keane, the creative force behind the acclaimed Progressive Metal project The Vicious Head Society, returns with his third studio album, “Call of the Void” — a stark, deeply personal exploration of identity, struggle, and renewal.
Departing from the sweeping societal themes of his earlier work, Keane turns inward, tracing the defining moments that have shaped him within the fading embers of a personal cycle. “Call of the Void” confronts the slow, corrosive pull of losing one’s purpose, capturing the tension between resistance and surrender with unflinching honesty.
While the album preserves the project’s signature blend of technical precision and soaring melody, Keane channels a heavier emotional weight into the music. The result is a sonic landscape that mirrors the arduous path of self‑discovery — turbulent, atmospheric, and relentlessly human. Listeners are invited to confront their own recurring cycles and find meaning in the darkness.
Musically, the album reaffirms Keane’s reputation as an Irish guitar virtuoso. Complex, intricate arrangements intertwine with crushing heaviness and moments of stark beauty, forming a dynamic palette that showcases both his compositional ambition and his unmistakable guitar voice. Every passage reflects the grit and resolve of an artist pushing through the darkness toward clarity.
“Call of the Void” stands as a powerful statement from a musician at the height of his creative powers, further solidifying The Vicious Head Society’s place in the modern Progressive Metal scene.
