GENTLE SAVAGE will release their brand new single ‘Fuel My Fire’ on March 27th!
Today the band’s songwriter and vocalist/guitarist Tornado Bearstone reveals the story behind the track:
“LET’S GET HEATED!
Sitting at home ‘couch jamming’ songwriter Tornado Bearstone was experimenting with an alternate tuned guitar. The main riff and especially the rhythm of the chorus kinda shouted out; ‘C’MON, FUEL MY FIRE!’.
In a situation like this there was no other choice but to write a song around that phrase. After that first phrase the song pretty much wrote itself causing infectious rise of spirits when played for the first time at the band rehearsals.”
Here’s the chorus:
“C’mon, fuel my fire. Get yourself some rock’n roll!
C’mon, breathe desire. More, more, more…”
Tornado adds:
“The chorus sums it up and on a certain level tells the whole story in a few sentences. But the full narrative is a bit deeper. It seems like the teller has fallen in love and is inviting the loved one to join on a mission to heat things up.
Could it also be that there’s been some time spent apart and that’s causing a little bit of confusion in the tellers mind…? For better or worse we all do know what mental and/or physical Love can do. It heats you up. Period.”

With a title like ’Fuel My Fire’ what can you expect from a Rock tune? In this case you’ll get a tight and melodic firecracker for Rock and Metal enthusiasts. With a touch of Classic Rock mixed with a modern metallish sound of alternate tuned guitars this Hard Rock tune was the obvious choice to introduce the new line-up in it’s full power and blaze.
The cover art was sketched by vocalist Tornado Bearstone and created by his trusted graphic artist Vin Valentino. There was a lot of emotion put into that one single picture. And that is exactly what the band was looking for; a continuum of what’s been released before, now with even more power and emotion in it. New music and the cover art reflects the band’s state of mind; a well self-esteemed group of musicians writing and performing music straight from the heart.
Inside the band the new members positive energy combined with old members’ strong attitude makes everything feel solid, easy and flowing.
