RED FANG STREAMING ONLY GHOSTS IN FULL

Oct. 13, 2016, PHILADELPHIA – Red Fang, who release Only Ghosts tomorrow via Relapse Records, are streaming the 10-song album below following a week of song premieres via the Nerdist, Loudwire, Relix and Kerrang.




The band, currently touring Europe with a show in Cologne this evening, have also unveiled a 16-bit video game that can be found at Fangtris is a twist on the classic Tetris game, inviting players to stack the band’s gear on stage before the show starts.

Only Ghosts was recorded earlier this year at Ross Robinson’s Venice, Calif. studio, with Robinson (At The Drive-In, The Cure, Slipknot) handling production and Joe Barresi (Queens of the Stone Age, Tool, Melvins) mixing the album. The band said of the experience, “Working with Ross and Joe on this record was a huge leap forward for us. The process was very challenging and rewarding, and I think we’re a better band for it. This album expresses exactly where we’re at. We’re super proud of it!”

Early reviews of the album affirm the sparkling results of the production partnership with Nerdist dubbing Only Ghosts a “supremely excellent new album” while Metal Sucks offered, “…with Only Ghosts, they’ve delivered their freshest set of jams yet. On this new album, Red Fang are executing their songwriting at a deadly precision: their melodies are hookier, their compositions perfectly tweaked, their dual-throaty-vocal layers reaching an artful tier not really seen in the genre since Blood Mountain.”

In the week’s leading up to Only Ghosts’ release, the Portland-based rock band have also created a tremendously clever video about wronged comic book collectors seeking Predator-style vengeance, partnered with Stumptown Coffee Roasters for a tour only blend dubbed “The Deep” after the song of the same name and lent their music to Pabst Blue Ribbon’s retro pinball machine, The Can Crusher.
