Northern Ireland’s Fighting With Wire just released their sophomore album, Colonel Blood, on Xtra Mile Recordings/ILG. In celebration of the release, Fighting With Wire has given AltSounds some exclusive acoustic tracks to showcase to the world.
Exclusive to the wonderful readers of AltSounds, below you can stream acoustic versions of 'Erase You,' 'Waiting On A Way To Believe,' and 'Didn't Wanna Come Back Home' all of which are taken of their newly released album Colonel Blood which hit stores everywhere this week.
Recorded in Nashville with producer Nick Raskulinecz (Deftones, Foo Fighters, Danzig), Colonel Blood is a straight-up rock record that delivers belting riffs, brutal rhythmic attacks and sing-along choruses. Lead guitarist and vocalist Cahir O’Doherty explains, “With this new record we really focused on the songs, we're all influenced by early 90's American rock so making this record we tried to give that 90's sound a modern makeover. It was great working with Nick Raskulinecz in Nashville, he really got what we were trying to do and helped us make this record sound huge.”
Fighting With Wire is Cahir O’Doherty (Lead guitar, Vocals), Craig McKean (Drums, Vocals) and Jamie King (Bass). They just wrapped a U.K. headlining tour as well as dates with revered metal pioneers Helmet and are expected to release information about an upcoming US tour shortly.
Until then, enjoy these AltSounds exclusive acoustic tracks and spread the word.
