High On Fire Keeps The Metal Alive on New Album

The album from the trio, which includes Jeff Matz on bass, snagged an NPR First Listen feature and a review that states that it captures the band’s “unique chemistry, presenting it in a tone that’s both warm and aggressive to the point of leaping out at the listener.”
