Highway Queen issued debut full-length studio album Bitter Soul<\/em> on December 16th, 2022 through Rockshots Records.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom our first self-releases and singles with Inverse Records to this album, our sound is definitely going from a lighter to heavier direction,\u201d Highway Queen commented. \u201cEvery song has its own mood so feeling vary throughout the album. There are parts in the album with bluesy vibes to parts that have strong doom or even thrash vibes. It all blends together with a touch of 80s style. Every song on the record has its own mood.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bitter Soul<\/em> was recorded at Inka Studio, and produced, engineered and mixed by Aleksanteri Kuosa. Bass parts for the album were recorded by Jykke Tikka.<\/p>\n

Mastering was handled by Jukka Yliaho of Masterlab.<\/p>\n
