A tre anni da “Luminiferous” riecco comparire gli High On Fire con un album nuovo di zecca. L’ottava fatica in studio della band capitanata da Matt Pike si intitola “Electric Messiah“, è stata prodotta dal chitarrista dei Converge Kurt Ballou ed uscirà il prossimo 5 ottobre per eOne Music.
Pare che ad ispirare il trio sia stato il compianto frontman dei Motörhead Lemmy Kilmister e a parlarne è lo stesso Pike:
“I had a dream about Lemmy. When Lemmy was still alive I always got compared to Lemmy, so I had this dream where he got pissed at me.
He gave me a bunch of shit, basically, and was hazing me. Not that he didn’t approve of me, but like I was being hazed. The song is me telling the world that I could never fill Lemmy’s shoes because Lemmy’s Lemmy. I wanted to pay homage to him in a great way. And it turned out to be such a good title that the guys said we should call the album ‘Electric Messiah.’”
