Fire And Brimstone With DAN From ANCIENT REMAINS

Fire And Brimstone With DAN From ANCIENT REMAINS

Author: HEAVY Magazine March 15, 2024 Duration: 27:18
Interview by Kris Peters
Brisbane metal outfit Ancient Remains understand the ethos of more is better, consistently churning out new material in an attempt to engage with as many people as possible.
Their most recent effort is the crushing four-track EP Burn It All, which came out on March 13.
Ancient Remains draw influences from bands such as Metallica, Lamb of God, Pantera, Slipknot, Parkway drive, Megadeth, Turnstile, Linkin Park, Guns n Roses and Black Stone Cherry but do so in a way that ensures enough of their own DNA is sprinkled through the finished product so as to create a sound unmistakably their own.
Vocalist Dan sat down with HEAVY late last week to tell us more about Burn It All.
"We're very excited for it," he began, "because we did a single release for the title track then followed it up with Chill The Fuck Out, dedicated to our neighbours we pissed off for so long. Then we follow it up with the other two, and are in the works on other demos beyond that as well. We're not gonna stop there, and we intend to keep going in the future."
In the full interview, Dan talks more about Burn It All and what they were going for overall with the EP, runs us through each track individually and the meaning behind it, the new material they are working on and what it sounds like, being featured on MMM Brisbane,upcoming shows and more
