Announce European tour

22-04-2024

Iconic U.S. rock band High on Fire releases their new album Cometh the Storm, via MNRK Heavy. The GRAMMY Award-winning group, celebrating its 25th anniversary, recorded Cometh the Storm at GodCity Studio in Salem, Massachusetts with producer Kurt Ballou. The 11-song effort (the band’s ninth studio album) marks the release of the first new High on Fire music since 2018’s Electric Messiah and the first to feature drummer Coady Willis (MelvinsBig BusinessMurder City Devils), alongside bassist Jeff Matz, and guitarist/vocalist Matt Pike.

Watch the previously released “Burning Down” below.

“Burning Down” kicks off with a classic Pike riff,” says Jeff Matz. “I think this song harkens back to the early High On Fire sound, but infused with fresh, new elements. It has a killer groove that you can really sink into. The body of the song took shape in our PNW rehearsal space, and we came up with the bridge/solo section and finalized the arrangement while we were at GodCity. Kurt Ballou’s input as a producer was also hugely helpful. His keen ears and fresh perspective were invaluable in making this album.”
