Snakes For The Divine 2. Frost Hammer 3. Bastard Samurai 4. Ghost Neck 5. Fire, Flood & Plague 6. How Dark We Pray 7. Holy Flames Of The Fire Spitter 8. Mystery Of Helm "World-renowned power trio HIGH ON FIRE has completed work on its long-awaited, fifth studio album and follow-up to 2007’s Death is This Communion. Titled Snakes for the Divine, the record will drop on February 23, 2010 via E1 Music. Brought to life by longtime HIGH ON FIRE cover artist Arik Moonhawk Roper, the stunning album art is a visual interpretation of the album’s enigmatic title. Recorded at The Pass Studios in Los Angeles with producer Greg Fidelman, Snakes for the Divine is HIGH ON FIRE’s magnum opus, capturing every nuance of the legendary band’s ongoing musical progression and evolution into one of heavy music’s all time greats. Sharper, faster and darker than anything the group has ever recorded, Snakes for the Divine is an unrelenting tour de force, showcasing cult guitar hero Matt Pike’s utterly unique and inventive musicianship and the band’s epic, thundering sound. Premium production by Fidelman the man who produced Slayer’s World Painted Blood and is mixing the upcoming Metallica live album boosts HIGH ON FIRE’s strength and power while blackened lyrical tales of ancient wars, frozen planets and doomed societies emerge from Pike’s bellowing barks and throaty war cries. From the moment the leviathan-like title track explodes to kick off the album, it is immediately evident that HIGH ON FIRE is determined to push modern heavy metal into new and uncharted realms." http://www.stamnes.com/music/ Title: Re: HIGH ON FUCKING FIRE - Snakes for the Divine Post by: Kastil on February 17, 2010, 01:49:27 PM You had me at "Tentacle-sex cover art".

Title: Re: HIGH ON FUCKING FIRE - Snakes for the Divine Post by: thrun on February 18, 2010, 03:25:03 PM I love High on Fire, but so far call me underwhelmed. There are some good riffs on this for sure but the Mastodon-esq parts get on my nerves. I'll give it a few more listens but so far Meh.
Title: Re: HIGH ON FUCKING FIRE - Snakes for the Divine Post by: thrun on February 18, 2010, 03:52:09 PM Ok, listening to tracks like Holy Flames of the Fire Spitter still tickle my tummy. But all and all this won't be my favorite HOF album.
Title: Re: HIGH ON FUCKING FIRE - Snakes for the Divine Post by: Reddawn on February 18, 2010, 04:46:40 PM yeah they need to get a better producer. I don't like the mix of the album....definitely will be better live I am guessing.
Title: Re: HIGH ON FUCKING FIRE - Snakes for the Divine Post by: thrun on February 18, 2010, 05:46:55 PM I am on my third listen through and it is growing on me. I think they just need to stick to being High on Fucking Fire and stop trying to grow as a band, their formula is too good right off the bat to be fucked with.
