Texas heavy metal band Feral Vermin released their new album Harvey in the House on September 7, 2026, combining an old-school metal foundation with a concept built around paranormal stories and the darker sides of human behaviour.
The central figure, Harvey, comes from what guitarist Gary Watson describes as a real unexplained experience connected to his home. Rather than treating the record as a single-theme horror exercise, the band uses that idea as a frame for songs dealing with psychological pressure, difficult periods and the destructive impulses people carry with them.
Feral Vermin began as a project led by vocalist and guitarist Steven Eddie in 2013 before developing into its current lineup with Watson on guitar, Cameron Brown on bass, Morgan Heck on drums and Rick Kalifa handling the theatrical side of the group’s presentation.
The album was produced and recorded by Eddie at Hard Wall Studios and Bee Cave Records. Mixing and mastering were handled by Rick Greenwood at Geneva Post Audio.
Harvey in the House is available now through the band’s digital channels and Bandcamp.
