Cloven Hoof, the cult N.W.O.B.H.M. outfit, will release their new studio album »Never A Prophet In Your Own Land« on September 25, 2026. The album is coming out via High Roller Records.
Down below you’ll find the first single from the album, plus the video for Iron Mask!
“Harry Conklin’s vocals are in a league of their own again this time,” laughs Lee Payne, who goes on: »All credit to Harry. We’re really lucky to have such a brilliant vocalist and frontman in the band.”
“»Never A Prophet In Your Own Land« isn’t really a direct follow-up to »Heathen Cross«,” Payne continues. “»Heathen Cross« is packed with dark, heavy atmosphere. »Never A Prophet In Your Own Land« leans more toward »A Sultan’s Ransom«, but that similarity wasn’t intentional or planned. It just turned out that way.«
“»Never A Prophet In Your Own Land« is a really varied album, with mid-tempo tracks, faster cuts, epic compositions and classic heavy metal bangers – it’s a killer mix of everything,” Payne sums up his excitement about the new record.
