Fire Down Below announce new album ‘Low Desert Surf Club’
FIRE DOWN BELOW have announced a new album!
Titled Low Desert Surf Club, the upcoming album from the Ghent-based heavy stoner rock band is the long-awaited follow-up to 2018’s Hymn Of The Cosmic Man, and is scheduled to be released in September this year, via Ripple Music.
“Embracing the contradiction of a Belgian band making songs about the California desert, we pinned down the album title because it captures the general ‘summer vibes upbeat rock ‘n roll’ vibe,” says the band. Produced by ELDER frontman Nick DiSalvo and recorded by Berlin engineer Richard Berhens at Dunk! Studios at Zottegem in Belgium, the third album intends to be filled with nine fuzzed-out and sunbaked feel-good hits evocative of a road trip through the Californian desert.
“Written when people were confined to their houses, live music was banned and putting four guys together in a room to jam was borderline illegal, we made the decision not to lament and wee, but instead make an album full of positive vibes and hope for better days to return soon. So we started writing songs that made us feel like we were driving through wide-open deserts, exploring new lands or partying at the beach all day and all night long. After exploring outer space on our second album Hymn Of The Cosmic Man, this album feels closer to the vibes on our debut Viper Vixen Goddess Saint.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, FIRE DOWN BELOW have released a new song from their upcoming album; California.
Speaking about the new song, the band says, “California is our take on a feel-good party song that would lift us from the everyday doom and gloom and remind us that good times were going to be back. Now that they are, we hope people will feel the vibes and go crazy with us when we play this song live. Party time!”
