“‘Organ Grinder’ song talks about the general structure of mankind, either you are the organ grinder or you are the monkey,” states founding member and guitarist Erik Barath.
Barath offers more details on the concept behind Black Hearse Serenade: “Black Hearse Serenade tells a story, set in Southern California, about a broken man, his congregation of runaways, junkies and lost souls and a murderous path to finality. A childhood filled with embarrassment and shame, born of religious zealotry and an overbearing mother, that broken child has now become a man.”

The bulk of Black Hearse Serenade was recorded at Dexters Lab Recording, the studio owned and operated by Nick Bellmore (otherwise known as Nicholas T. Rage from Toxic Holocaust, who personally engineered and mixed the album). All of Erik Barath’s lead guitars and piano/keyboard parts were recorded in Cyprus with Philip Zilfo. Black Hearse Serenade was then mastered by Jeff Lipton at Peerless Mastering.

Black Hearse Serenade marks a substantial step forward for I.N.C., while also representing a bit of a departure from the sound they’ve been recognized for in the past. Fans should expect the unexpected with Black Hearse Serenade, as each song has its own, unique DNA.

ABOUT I.N.C.
Formed in 1985, Connecticut’s I.N.C. began their recording career in 1987 with their debut album, Razorback, on Giant Records. Critics and fans throughout the tri-state area were hammered over the head by what they heard. The band’s heavy, destructive style translated well to stage and to vinyl.
I.N.C. released their 3rd full-length album entitled ‘Heaven Sent…Hellbound’ with UK record label Rising Records in Europe, and Candlelight Records in North America. World-famous record producer Fredrik Nordström (At the Gates, In Flames, Opeth) produced the release. It reached #6 on the CMJ Loud rock charts. Their 2nd video for the song ‘Swallowed’ was released and has hit over 180,000 views and climbing.
