Anglo-French crossover aggressors Cage Fight have just released a video for new single ‘My Dreams’, a slightly different take on the song that appears on the band’s stunning self-titled debut album, available via Candlelight Records.
On the track, guitarist James Monteith commented: “The original version of ‘My Dreams’ is a slow building, almost proggy track that closes our debut album and it was never intended as a single.
“However, it’s been a big hit live so we reworked it into a snappy more immediate song, and we felt it worked so well it was worth releasing to the world. It also serves as a nice transition to our new music which has taken a darker turn.”
Vocalist Rachel Aspe commented: “Filmed at BTS Audiovisuel – Lycée Suge in Paris, director Alex Stark (who is also the guitarist in our good friends Gravity) captured the misery and struggle of the song perfectly.
“It visually represents feelings of isolation and when fighting forward, internal battles, and understanding meaning and purpose. Persevering in the face of life’s challenges and defeating internal demons.”
Cage Fight have a busy festival schedule coming up, including:
- 27 Mar: Inferno Fest, Norway
- 6 Jun: Mystic Festival, Poland
- 20 Jun: Fontaine-l’Évêque, MCP Apache (headline), Belgium
- 21-23 Jun: – Full Force, Germany
- 28 Jun: Funeral Fest (headline), UK
On the new material, James concludes: “Our second album is about 70% written and we’re very excited to get in the studio to record it later this year. We wrote the first album in 6 months of knowing each other and it was born from pure chemistry, but now we’ve had a few years to really discover our sound, which is deeper, darker and more aggressive. We can’t wait to unleash it on the world!”
