CLINGING TO THE TREES OF A FOREST FIRE Announce Release Date
Denver, Colorado's "funeral grind" crushers, CLINGING TO THE TREES OF A FOREST FIRE will release, "Songs of Ill Hope and Desperation," their first album for PROSTHETIC RECORDS, on June 8, 2010. (The band was dubbed "funeral grind," because they are "too slow for grindcore, too slow for doom.") The album was recorded by Dave Otero at Flatline Audio (Cephalic Carnage, Catheter, Cobalt) and the band promises their "most dynamic, bleakest, and dirtiest material to date."
CLINGING TO THE TREES OF A FOREST FIRE formed and released an EP ("Harmonies From Bleeding Mouths") in 2006, and released their first full-length, "Omega Drunk On The Blood Of Alpha" in 2008 on Debello Recordings. The band has drawn comparisons to acts such as Brutal Truth, Pig Destroyer, Discordance Axis, EyeHateGod and Napalm Death.
