YELLFIRE - "Escape"


YELLFIRE: metallic noise rockers team with Demian Johnston (Kiss It Goodbye, Great Falls) on new single "Escape"

Seattle pyromaniacs Yellfire release new single “Escape," featuring vocals by Demian Johnston (Kiss It Goodbye, Great Falls).

The song appears on the band's new album Dear Gods, out November 15th on The Ghost Is Clear Records.

Mixed by Matt Bayles (Minus the Bear, Mastodon) and mastered by Magnus Lindberg (Cult of Luna, Birds in Row), Dear Gods is a towering, thunderous piece of work that carries forth the spirit of the Pacific Northwest's greatest earth-shakers. Operating at the nexus of noise rock and hardcore, Yellfire's sound is the fusion of rain-soaked despair and snapped-wire urgency.

No Echo reports: “When your album features guest performances by members of Kiss It Goodbye, Minus the Bear, and Undertow, I’m going to pay attention. But impressive past credentials don’t mean jack if you aren’t—to quote Rob Halford—delivering the goods. I’m happy to report that Yellfire do indeed rock. With a crushing sound that evokes the doomsday-like crush of Today Is the Day and the ominous riff orgies of Deadguy, the Seattle band packs punch.”

Dear Gods was recorded by Jason Sissoyev at The Unknown, a converted church in Anacortes, Washington, co-owned by Mt. Eerie's Phil Elverum. Additional tracking was done with the help of Derek Moree (Pelican, The Sword) at The Boiler Room in Seattle.

Yellfire plays Rat City Recon in Seattle on October 26th, with High on Fire, Sandrider, and more.
