Saying that we’ve been anticipating what’s to come next from Texas’ Hinayana following 2020’s Death of the Cosmic is a pretty big understatement at this point so you can imagine our excitement when the recent tease of new music not only delivered “Reverse The Code”, the kind of song that you just blissfully bang your head along to while extending those devil horns high no matter where you are (Which you’ll read all about below), but also heralded the arrival of a BRAND NEW RECORD that’s slated to arrive in November through Napalm Records.
