### **Denver-Based International Furlough brings us back to the 90s with “Haven”**

Denver-based Alternative Metal Solo Project **International Furlough** have announced
the release of a hard-hitting, 90’s influenced new single _**“Haven”**_. The new
single is characterized by heavy lyrical themes, snarling melodic vocals, relentless,
de-tuned guitar riffage and pummeling, groove-heavy beats.** International Furlough**
is the musical alias and voice box of multi-instrumentalist and cathartic lyricist
Ian Luddy, who enlisted the support of Ryan Elwood on drums for this recording. 
On _**“Haven”**_, Ian continues his droning vocal snarl over intense electric riffage
and hammering rhythms.

Uncensored and holding back nothing, International Furlough is content making an
unholy racket to exorcise his inner discontent. Fans of CKY, Helmet, Tool and early
Smashing Pumpkins should enjoy this hard-edged new release. A new album is currently
in the works.
