Hangman's Chair - Seventh Album Announced & Detailed

French gothic doomers Hangman’s Chair will put out their seventh full-length instalment, Saddiction, on February 14th 2025 through Nuclear Blast Records. To taste a piece of the new music, check out a music video for the latest single “Kowloon Lights”.

Hangman’s Chair comments about Saddiction: “Saddiction is the contraction of 2 words, sadness and addiction. It means the addiction to sadness. 7th effort of the band, for us, Saddiction is the second album of the new trilogy started with A Loner back in 2022 and it’s the logical continuity. Keeping up with the cold, massively reverbed and chorused atmosphere but now mixed with what Hangman’s Chair has been known for, the heaviness and the low tuned sound, thanks to the magical sound engineer Francis Caste, once again. Valnoir of Metastazis designed the cover and resumed what the identity of Hangman’s Chair is all about in its purest form, concrete, pavement, bleakness and ultra modern solitude of the Parisian « banlieue ». Now, please don’t blame us for your saddiction. It has always been here. In your hearts, February 14th 2025.”
