FIRES IN THE DISTANCE to Release New Album “Circadian Promise” on June 12th

Connecticut melodic/melancholic death metal troupe FIRES IN THE DISTANCE will release their Circadian Promise full-length on June 12th via Prosthetic Records

With their third album, the band has elevated their melancholy, synth-embroidered signature to cathartic new heights. Circadian Promise is virtuosic yet visceral, progressive but always authentic, confirming FIRES IN THE DISTANCE as rising genre standouts.

“Our music stems from raw feeling,” said founding guitarist and songwriter Yegor Savonin. “Each new record depicts a different experience and time period in our lives, with which the sound and atmospherics evolve and reflect this as well.”

Originally conceived as a Savonin solo project in 2016, within four years, FIRES IN THE DISTANCE evolved into a full live band. Their acclaimed 2020 debut album for Prosthetic Records, Echoes From Deep November, was followed three years later by Air Not Meant For Us, a record that fused the band’s modern melodic death metal with elegantly orchestrated arrangements and rich storytelling.

Following a high-profile 2024 North American tour with Dark Tranquillity and Amorphis, FIRES IN THE DISTANCE reunited with longtime producer Dave Kaminsky and orchestration maestro Randy Slaugh (Tesseract, Devin Townsend) to craft Circadian Promise. Featuring new vocalist/guitarist Brendan Hayter, the album is without question FIRES IN THE DISTANCE’s bleakest and most embracing to date, constantly engaging and filler-free despite some of its six tracks running over nine minutes.

“This album is a little bit darker than the others,” explains Savonin. “It delves into the concept of spiritual death and losing your soul while still living and explores the existential concepts of accepting and coming to terms with and embracing the bleaker side of realities which we will all face at one point or another.”
