Wait&#8230;what? So, is Skillet not metal enough for some of you? I&#8217;m a metal head, but I have been a big fan of Skillet since their style change on 2003&#8217;s <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Collide<\/span> release, and followed along their carrier ever since. But alas, if Skillet was not quite metal enough for some of you, be sure to at least check out the new EP by <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Fight the Fury<\/span>, which is a side-band featuring Skillet vocalist\/bassist <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">John Cooper<\/span>, joined by fellow Skillet member, guitarist Seth Morrison, as well as drummer Jared Ward and guitarist John Panzer III. Unlike Skillet, here you&#8217;ll find no orchestration, no pop sensibilities, just unbridled heaviness.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_8 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">I have given it a few spins already and am loving it more and more with each listen. But then again, I am a long time Skillet fan already. Either way, I think fans of traditional and modern metal will likewise enjoy it. It reminds me of many of today&#8217;s more mainstream metal bands.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_8 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">Vocally, Cooper never goes very far from what we&#8217;ve heard him do with Skillet, he just displays additional aggression and power throughout. In other words, there is no screaming or ultra heavy growling vocals styles. There are a few times where we find a little bit of the modern second-vocal yelling style thrown in at times, but it is more rare than usually found these days. In the end, we find that on this release, it is very much the recognizable vocals of Cooper, but here he is really belting it out much more; like the heaviest Skillet song on steroids. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_8 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">There really are no slow tracks here, which is good since we&#8217;re only served up five tracks this time around. Track two, <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Dominate Me<\/span>, starts out with a really cool picking guitar pattern before blasting forward with a try-not-to-bob-you-head-along riff that gets you moving. One of my stand out favorites so far.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_8 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">The thing I enjoy about this release, is the five tracks are heavy, yet they are distinct from each other and this does not blur together as just a lot of heavy noise. The songs still have catchy anthem sing-along feels to the chorus most of the time, yet the music really gets you headbanging along.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_8 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">Check out the video below for the first single for <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">My Demons<\/span>, the opening track. This is a good representation of what to expect. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavensmetalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/mqdefault-6-4.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_8 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">From the press release:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">Conflict never rests, but each battle makes us tougher. The longer we hold on, the stronger we become. Fight The Fury soundtrack the eternal struggle towards strength with robust riffing, airtight ironclad grooves, and hard-hitting heavy metal hooks. Established in 2018 as a new outlet for the creativity of Skillet vocalist and bassist John Cooper, the project\u2014rounded out by Skillet guitarist Seth Morrison, drummer Jared Ward, and guitarist John Panzer III\u2014empower and energize listeners to keep fighting.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">\u201cThe music is about battling through the struggles in life we all face in order to survive,\u201d affirms Cooper. \u201cThe name Fight The Fury recognizes that these songs are a cathartic release. I hope listeners relate to that. I\u2019ve seen music help people who face depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts. The process was very therapeutic for me. Even though I\u2019m singing about dark and hard things, we want to communicate that there\u2019s hope at the end of the struggle.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">Heavy music provided the perfect vehicle to do so. For as much as writing for Fight The Fury granted Cooper an opportunity to flex a different muscle sonically, it also brought him full circle. A staunch fan of Metallica, Iron Maiden, Slipknot, and Disturbed, the artist drew on a lifelong passion for all things heavy. Compiling ideas quietly since 2013, the frontman followed his muse, penning and recording songs on tour in locker rooms, backstage at venues, and on the bus around the globe. Accompanied by Seth during many of these impromptu sessions, he channeled a timeless feeling via live energy, thicker tones, and unfiltered aggression.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">\u201cHonestly, it took me back to the roots of why I love music and the way I felt when I first heard metal,\u201d he elaborates. \u201cI didn\u2019t want it to be slick. I didn\u2019t want any outside input. I wanted it to feel like you\u2019re at the show and you\u2019re going to mosh and jump up and down. The lyrics get raw. Of course, I\u2019ll always be in Skillet. It\u2019s my first love, but it\u2019s fun to respond to all of those tweets asking for a heavy record with this,\u201d he laughs. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of emotion and passion in these songs.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavensmetalmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/48f103_9d6d363d80274d65ad1d6a0c391fecea-mv2-6.jpg\" alt=\"Fight the Fury band\" title=\"Fight the Fury band\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">In order to channel that, he enlisted the talents of Seth\u2019s cousin Ward behind the kit and Panzer III who originally auditioned for Skillet at 16. Additionally, he wrote, produced, and recorded the album himself\u2014even engineering much of it. A D.I.Y. spirit defines the final product.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">\u201cI knew if I made this myself, I could have complete creative control,\u201d he continues. \u201cFight The Fury had to have its own identity. I had freedom to go back to the drawing board and just rock out.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">That\u2019s exactly what the band does on the band\u2019s 2018 debut EP, Still Breathing[Atlantic Records]. The first single \u201cMy Demons\u201d hinges on pummeling guitar accented by pinch harmonics as Cooper\u2019s scream gives way to an anthemic chant. It\u2019s a perfect and powerful introduction to the vision at large.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">\u201cI was actually talking to a fan about child abuse,\u201d he recalls. \u201cEven though the lyrics explore more conflicts we face, it does touch on that. At the same time, it\u2019s about not wanting to forgive someone who\u2019s hurt you in a really bad way. I thought people could relate to it on a broader and more specific level. Musically, it was a great way to kick everything off.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">Elsewhere, the thrashing madness of \u201cDominate Me\u201d steamrolls forward on a polyrhythmic stomp before culminating on arena-ready gut-punch growl. It sees his voice expand into new territory.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">Cooper goes on, \u201c\u2018Dominate Me\u2019is about the fact that I sometimes feel like I\u2019m losing control of my life, and I need someone to put me back together\u2014or even to hold me together. It\u2019s about finding that person, that thing, or even a higher power that I can put my trust in. It\u2019s about trusting someone else more than you trust yourself.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">\u201cStill Burning\u201d unfolds as \u201ca dark love song,\u201dwhile \u201cLose Hold Of It All\u201d snaps into a seesawing chant before spiraling off into a jaw-dropping and fret-burning guitar solo duel.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">\u201cI just wanted to shout the verse without melody,\u201d he smiles. \u201cIt was really fun to get to do that. It gives off the song\u2019s anger. It\u2019s about confronting those forces of depression and fear and the voices within or outside that tell you you\u2019re not good enough and you\u2019re not going to make it. You shout them down.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">Fight The Fury speaks to Cooper\u2019s versatility as a songwriter. Known worldwide for his work in Skillet, the group has sold 12 million albums to date, achieved numerous accolades, and garnered two GRAMMY\u00aeAward nominations. Now, he\u2019s got another outlet to further expand his growing legacy. \u201cIt\u2019s cool to have two musical avenues now,\u201d he adds. \u201cFight The Fury captures something a little different for me.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">In the end, Fight The Fury\u2019s message exudes a power of its own.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"font_9 wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #b5b5b5;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">\u201cLetting some of that anger out can be a good thing,\u201d he leaves off. \u201cWhen I wake up in the morning, all I need to do is turn on some metal, and I\u2019m ready for anything. I want to help listeners deal with their demons and go harder. Whatever you\u2019re up against, I hope this makes you feel good to face it.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HEY SKILLET FANS! Wait&#8230;what?
