Born Through Fire (ft Tim Lambesis and Joey Alacorn) share single, album coming in April

born through fire

Official press release:

Born Through Fire has inked a world-wide deal with Seek and Strike and the first release of this new partnership comes via the crushing, new track, "The Reckoning." The band features Tim Lambesis (As I Lay Dying) on vocals and Joey Alarcon (Wolves At The Gates) on guitars and they deliver a propulsive blend of aggression and dynamic hooks resulting in a modern heavy metal assault of epic proportions. This is most evident on "The Reckoning" and you can check its captivating, new video at the link below. Look for the group's debut, full-length album, Purify and Refine, to drop on April 7th!

Tim Lambesis shares:

Before I started doing music full time again, I worked at a recovery center as a case manager and group therapy facilitator. It was incredibly formative and meaningful work to me. I started writing lyrics for 'The Reckoning' in regards to a friend of mine struggling with addiction, but shortly into writing I realized how much I relate to the way unhealthy coping methods and destructive behaviors can take hold. While the song isn't directly about my life, there isn't a single section of it that doesn't also apply to me at one point in my life. I'm hoping other people can relate to wanting to be free from harmful patterns. Moving forward often requires new environments, new interactions and addressing the root of what drives us subconsciously. This is also why I became part of the team that started the non-profit group, Reintegration, for people who need help coming out of whatever their version of rock bottom might be.

The video for 'The Reckoning' fits the lyrical metaphor of struggling to breathe while performing. At times I'm literally holding my breath underwater, and there are plenty of moments where Joey is inhaling rain while trying to stay focused on crushing riffs. We chose this song as our first single because it encompasses both the riffs and rhythmic sides of our songwriting, while still having just enough melody to convey the emotion of the lyrics.

Alacorn adds:

We self-produced and mixed 'The Reckoning' from start to finish, spending months in the studio crafting our unique sound (heavy, aggressive) taking inspiration from classic metal bands, while also working to bring something new and unique to the table. We believe that 'The Reckoning' is the best song to announce the upcoming album. It perfectly represents our sound, style and the emotional themes that we explore throughout the album.

Either Tim looks like he just got done benchpressing 400 at the gym or someone dunked a bucket of water on him to make it look like that - either way LOL.

The drummer is pretty good, I see he didn't want to be named in this outfit.

Steroids are outstanding. Anyone knocking them has never done a cycle. Even you limp dicked liberals could benefit. Maybe it'd help get rid of those manginas you all have.

anonymous 3/2/2023 10:55:33 PM

anonymous 3/3/2023 6:33:43 AM

Libtards are too busy marrying men to men and men to men dressed as women to know the real red blooded American struggles like trying to discreetly have your wife murdered. Try getting a biological woman and seeing what it's like when she tries to leave you after you mail her a letter stating you'll f*ck whoever you want on tour.

Every time Tim swings his arms 15 libs fall over from the wind gust it creates.

let's not sit here and still pretend all these years later that Tim actually committed a "crime" … rail roaded

anonymous 3/3/2023 9:35:24 AM

"Cultural appropriation" for having Japanese tattoos? Holy f*cking shit. I hope you never have children, there's just no hope for some. How does your brain correlate those thoughts?

anonymous 3/3/2023 11:07:55 AM

not bad, but what a cringe name
