NICOLAS CAGE FIGHTER RELEASE NEW EP ‘CAST YOU OUT’ + NEW SINGLE ‘EXILER’

NICOLAS CAGE FIGHTER, Australia's best-named heavy band, have not begun 2021 with any of that 'New Year, New Me' rubbish, they have simply got down to business doing what they do best - release heavy as hell music! Today, the video for their new single Exiler drops just ahead of the release of their 'Cast You Out' EP!

Their EP 'Cast You Out' will be out this Friday February 5th 2021. The 5-track, breakneck speed EP is available at their Bandcamp - https://nicolascagefighter.bandcamp.com or pre-save at https://ditto.fm/cast-you-out.



Nick Moriarty, vocalist for the band, spoke about the process of creating this EP. "When beginning the writing for the lyrics of this EP, I knew that I had a clear narrative I wanted to express. As a band we simply wanted to deliver a story which detailed living with mental health issues. From the start I have aimed to do this in such a way that it was clearly a story of my own, yet expressed in such a manner that anyone living with mental health problems or challenging life experiences of their own could clearly relate to."

"Secondary to this, it was very important to me that whilst the EP as a whole represented a clearly flowing story of living with and contesting the impact of anger issues, anxiety and depression, I wanted each song to stand out on their own thematically, with their own unique stories and progressions of sorts.
"


New Single and video 'Exiler' is out today - 'Black Jackal', 'Devil's Head' and 'Dead Ends' have been released already from the EP - and all of these tracks have been featured on Spotify's Homegrown & Heavy, New Blood, Heavy Beatdown and New Metal Tracks playlists, and Apple Music's Heaps Heavy and Fresh Blood playlists!

The Cast You Out EP tracks were recorded by Kye Blomeley at K.B Audio and mixed and mastered by Roman Koester (The Red Shore, Deez Nuts, 50 Lions, Carpathian). The EP artwork was created by purifiedbysatan.
