You can now check out two tracks "Better By Daylight" and "Envision The Forsaken" (unmastered)
that will be featured on the album through HUS bandcamp profile -two slabs of fast frantic metallic hardcore much in the vein of the bands of Belgium H8000 scene like Congress, xLiarx, Spirit of Youth, Regression, Shortsight. As much brutal as passionate.

Bands bio:
Formerly known as "Destruct" who has been in the scene since November 1998. Destruct was formed by Agus, Daru, Hery (ex- Diphterium Hate) and Desmond (ex- Scumbag). And then, the concept of being a metallic hardcore band was chosen. Since their first appearances, they've always had line-up problems. Now after almost 4 years used the name "Destruct", they finally decided to change their name into Hands Upon Salvation. We are personally interested in being a part of the hardcore scene because we are all personally fit into the music, the chord, the energy, the passion, and the whole tradition of hardcore stands about. Being independent, playing such an energetic chord of the movement, trying to think in a different perspective and not scared to talk about whats going on inside our heads and our hearts and making friends and communicate with kids in everywhere we could. Although at the beginning some of us didn't fall in love in hardcore in the first place, but finally we are all proud to choose and being a part of the hardcore scene. And this is our present line-up, we are: Agus (vocals), A'ar (guitar), Daru (bass), and Suryo (drums). Before this, A'ar also known as a guitarist for a "tough guy" hardcore bands called Dapperheid, while Suryo are also well known for his performance with his past bands such as Chaos Machine (HC), Fat Bastard (Crustcore), Malformed (Grindcore) and some other few names. Now besides drumming for Hands Upon Salvation he also known as a drummer for the band Morning Horny (pop punk). We are stayed loyal with our first concept, being as a metal/hardcore band. We are influenced by a lot of bands, almost all the members listens to a lot of different music and a lot of different bands/ individual artist. And of course each member has their own influence and their own favorite bands/ musicians. Musically, our songs are goes along with the same direction of Deformity, All Out War, Morning Again, Congress, Abnegation, and Day Of Suffering. While we still kept metal influences from bands like Slayer, Kreator, Sadus, Suffocation, etc. Lyrically we deal with few themes about their hope towards justice, equality, humanity, earth, nature, other species, and also about pain, desperation, love, and any theme we want to speak about. All written with personal feelings, personal point of view, and then blended with some dark elements. After reborn with their new names we are decided to record our very first demo in late 2003, and later this demo was released as their first mini album in 2004 by Diorama Records. With the increase of our mature age, and the more growing audiences to our performance, and the more recognition to our appearances, we seems to be develop naturally to draw more attention to the musical progression, performances, and the ethical choice we believe. We didn't have any spesific plans, except for keeping us together playing and creating the music as good as we can, making friends and more friends in everywhere we could cause we believe that communication is a really nice thing to do and we love to do it. We didn't have any spesific goal or mission unlike other bands. We're just happy to be what we are today, playing the best as we can, and not scared to talk about our feelings towards everything we want. DISCOGRAPHY
