HARSH

HARSH are the new rising stars within the hard rock scene. The band from Paris revives their traditional sound with a modern twist and catchy melodies. Their songs and live shows strike with theatricality, paired with a rare sensitivity that forges a strong bond with the audience. Born from a deep friendship, the band succeeds in the bold challenge of combining musical power with emotional sincerity.

Following the success of their debut album “Out Of Control” (2022), and more than 300 shows played, including their tours along with a.o. THE NEW ROSES, ANVIL and CHRIS HOLMES (ex-WASP) across Europe and the UK, the French band is ready to release their second, new album called “Feels”, on July 3rd, 2026 through Fireflash Records (WOLF, FURIES, ROCK JUSTICE a.o.) and will carry their rock into every heart they encounter. “We had a lot of things to put into music, a lot of stories and feelings”, says the band, which guides to the album. “For this album we wanted to express and share our feelings with the audience. When it came down to choosing a name for the album, "Feels" felt natural.”

Hannes Braun, lead singer of KISSIN’ DYNAMITE, mixed and mastered the new album. A perfect match. “Working with Hannes Braun is kind of a dream for us. We love Kissin' Dynamite’s music and sound and Hannes knows exactly how to get the best of each of our tracks. It's always great and smooth to work with him”, adds Albert (singer and guitarist). The overall result speaks for itself and gives the listener a good time, which is important nowadays more than ever. “For us, music is about expressing our feelings. It all comes down to creating a strong bond with the listener, on and off stage. This means everything to us.”

Four men in stylish attire pose on the floor with a blue gradient background. The text "Harsh" and "Feels." is prominently displayed.

The lyrics on “Feels” are generally about life and things the four members experience or go through, about stories they hear and want to share. “We explore a variety of feelings on this album, simple ones such as falling in love or breaking up, but also mixed emotions that are harder to express, and are often disregarded. Here we're talking about guilt, the need to find your place and your identity, helping someone going through grief, but also what binds us together: friendship.“

Four men with long hair pose confidently in stylish outfits against a plain blue backdrop. One wears a fur coat, others have tattoos.

The band has huge plans and they have the songs. “Our next goal is to make "Feels" as unforgettable for others as it is for us, and we can't wait to meet our community around the world.“

"Feels" will be released on a CD, ltd. blue-marbled-opaque VINYL and digital!
