Coming at you from Bridgend, home to Funeral For A Friend, Those Damn Crows and Bullet For My Valentine, South Wales metal beasts (and former Band of the Day) I Fight Bears hurl out juggernaut riffage, imposing vocals, and thunderous beats, that suck you in and spit you out. Breaking out from Covid lockdown, the South Wales Metallers return with their brand new single “Chainbreaker”. The single is out via all digital platforms on Sunday 24th October and promises electrifying riffs, crushing vocals and huge chorus melodies
In 2018, the Welsh heavyweights dropped their self-titled debut album, sparking glowing comparisons to Lamb Of God, Parkway Drive, and Killswitch Engage. The record piqued the interest of Metal Hammer, who placed the band on their cover CD, exclusively streamed the album, and backed the band with a feature in the magazine. The album was also widely praised from many acclaimed websites and online sources. The band followed this up with the release of their shredding cover of the classic Spandau Ballet song “Gold” I Fight Bears’ live stock is on the rise too, with slots with the likes of Bleed From Within, The Word Alive, Continents, Perpetua and Skies In Motion have only furthered their growth.
In regards to their powerful new single and video for ‘Chainbreaker’, Vocalist Dan Blackmore states about the track:
When writing “Chainbreaker”, I was trying to put across my own experiences of anxiety, depression and feeling lost within today’s society. I opted to pen how my own struggles have been and the repetitive strain it has taken on me as a person. The lyrics in the song are about breaking with the past and evolving into something new as an individual. I hope that anyone who listens to “Chainbreaker” can take my experiences and feel more empowered to overcome the feelings and emotions that they may be experiencing themselves.”
I Fight Bears are currently working hard on brand new material for an EP to follow up from their debut album. Stay tuned to their socials for updates.
