Time Is Up is the second full-length album recorded by the thrash metal band Havok. It was released through Candlelight Records in 2011.
Background
[edit | edit source]In the pre-conception of the album, the band was going through many lineup changes, and as a result most of the material and demos for the album were written without a lead guitarist or drummer. Most of the songs on the album were written by frontman David Sanchez and bassist Jesse De Los Santos. By the time recording of Time Is Up had started, Reece Scruggs and Pete Webber had joined the band. There were 2 music videos made for the album, "D.O.A" and "Covering Fire".
