New EP “Resistenza” out now!
Helsinki-based Fearout releases new ’Resistenza’ EP (May 5th 2023) as a follow up for their Bleedthrough (Inverse 2021) debut album with. ‘Resistenza’ is also released by Inverse Records. New EP will expand band’s repertoire closer to punk rock, but band still combines their rough-edged metal rock with stoner influences.
We started the process for this Resistenza EP right after we had our debut album mastered, and we thought that there wasn’t that many punkish songs in our on our debut album, so the next album – whenever that would be made – would be punk EP. Fast forward half a year later, after Russians had started the war in Ukraine, there was a lot of anguish and agony and thus inspiration, and we wrote a couple of songs that reflected our feelings towards the war, and it made sense to start working on this album right away.
There are also couple of older songs on the album that were written way back in 2008 and the rest of the songs are from somewhere in between, songs that we’ve been playing for a couple of years and some of them have been already played live. They are punkish songs, but it’s Fearout punk and they have also lots of our usual elements: metal, stoner, hard rock, etc.
Resistenza? I ran into nazi resistance memorial in Italy last spring right after the war had started and took a photo that was used in EP cover. There is so much evil and ugly what to resist these days. Even though the resistance may seem futile. But even more because of that.
