Their sound is a potent brew of old-school melodic horror punk and rock, drawing inspiration from iconic bands such as&nbsp;<strong>Misfits<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>Ramones&nbsp;<\/strong>and&nbsp;<strong>Bad Religion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Johan Hansson<\/strong>&nbsp;of Left Hand Black said: \u201c<em>I have followed Maria and The Circle Music since the first release, and with her passion for the music and what she does for the bands, this is a dream come true. We are super excited to be part of the TCM family.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Left Hand Black have carved a reputation with their previous releases: their self-titled debut in 2020 via Wolverine Records and their 2022 follow-up, &#8220;<em><strong>Lower Than Satan<\/strong><\/em>&#8221; through Sunny Bastard Records\/Sick Taste Records. Now, with &#8220;Left Hand Black 3: Death Can&#8217;t Keep Us Apart&#8221; they aim to solidify their position as purveyors of infectious horror-infused punk anthems. As the band have declared:&nbsp;<em>&#8220;We prove that we can write hits and are an insanely good live band that takes no prisoners and celebrates a hellish party with you in the graveyard.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"nv-iframe-embed\"><iframe title=\"Left Hand Black-Murder on my mind Official Video\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UKpjXz84qNU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Left Hand Black online<\/strong><br><strong>Linktree:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/3-nation.us3.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=956507e30a2064b84227255fe&amp;id=e2fe7cfb62&amp;e=fa316e88f7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/linktr.ee\/Lefthandblack<\/a><\/strong><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Circle Music&nbsp;have signed the electrifying Swedish horrorpunk band&nbsp;Left Hand Black.
