California stoner metal titans High On Fire have begun work on a new album, tentatively slated for a Winter 2015 release. The trio is writing in sessions in New Orleans and Oakland, preparing the follow-up to 2012’s De Vermis Mysteriis.
"Des, Jeff and I are really getting creative and writing a hell of a new record," states guitarist/vocalist Matt Pike. "It's a crazy project and I can't really explain what it's all about just yet, but we've been writing a lot of crazy intense material that will up the ante, and bring things to another level."
"Everyone is asking what the new High on Fire music sounds like," adds drummer Des Kensel. "Chew on some mescaline and listen to side B of Sabbath's Master of Reality backwards at 78 RPM and it might give you an idea."
