The Safety Fire recently returned from an extensive US tour with Between The Buried & Me, The Faceless and The Contortionist, in support of their recently released second album ‘Mouth Of Swords’. As is the tradition for the band, they documented the entire run and you can now view the video for the title track of their latest album which features footage of life on the road: http://youtu.be/ERxlCrXTFQY
Guitarist Derya ‘Dez’ Nagle had this to say:
„We had an incredible time touring the US with some amazing friends. It was great to be playing new music again and we can’t wait to get on the road again. Our bodies are oiled and are ready to bring a sexual heat to this bitter cold. People of Europe. Prepare yourselves.”
They also recently made an appearance as a team on BBC2 quiz show Eggheads, and while they didn’t win, they did show the team how to dress sharp and have a bit of fun.
The band will kick off 2014 by heading out on the road in the UK & Europe with Protest The Hero, Tesseract & Intervals followed by an appearance on the Progressive Nation At Sea Cruise 2014.
