Prague goth rockers Cathedral In Flames have unveiled their new single and stylish video, "Push The Fire".
"Push The Fire" is a metaphorical story about picking up women. On the surface, it's vampire kitsch; underneath, it's classic seduction wrapped in promises of eternal love, right up to and beyond the grave. The seduction doesn't really work out, though, so both of our heroes get angrier and angrier, and they end up more and more blood-soaked.
The initial inspiration came during long spring walks around the South Bohemian fish ponds when, above the melting ice, there was nothing to see but raw, damp fog and flocks of crows. Musically, "Push The Fire" is a return to the roots: a straightforward, fast goth rock'n'roll song with a chorus that hits you straight in the face. The bridge is a conspiratorial wink toward the band, The Mission and their "Severina".
"Push The Fire" is a fast, rhythmically pulsing track driven by Gatsby's bass and Barney's tribal drumming, featuring a soaring chorus adorned with Ambra's vocal acrobatics and Phil's trademark growl. The sound was produced and mixed by Brett Carruthers of the Canadian band, The Birthday Massacre. Link
