Bordeaux, France-based melodic death metal outfit STARLIT PYRE have unleashed their highly anticipated debut EP, “Veins of Sulfur“. Drawing inspiration from the genre’s pioneers – the Gothenburg greats like At The Gates and Dark Tranquillity, alongside Soilwork and In Flames – STARLIT PYRE also incorporates the more contemporary stylings of bands such as Orbit Culture, Sylosis, and Darkest Hour. This blend showcases a band that respects its roots while forging its own modern path.

Tracklist:

1. Empire’s Downfall
2. Solar Rays
3. Veins of Sulfur
4. On my Own

Their debut EP, “Veins of Sulfur”, promises a full exploration of this sonic territory. The EP’s impactful sound was expertly shaped at Conkrete Studio (known for their work with The Great Old Ones and Eryn Non Dae…), with drum tracks laid down at Bud Studio (home to recordings by Gorod and Ad Patres…). Adding a compelling visual dimension to their music, Ani Artworks has crafted artwork that delves into the mythological and apocalyptic themes woven throughout their lyrics.

STARLIT PYRE comments: “Here we are, our debut EP is finally out! We’re so proud to present the first result of countless hours of work and dedication. The feedback from the press is awesome so far, we couldn’t be more delighted! We can’t wait to hit the road and play those songs on stage, and we probably won’t wait a long time to work on a follow-up to ‘Veins of Sulfur’!“

“Veins of Sulfur” is out now, self-released by the band, and available for purchase at THIS LOCATION.

Bordeaux, France -based Melodic Death Metal act STARLIT PYRE has unleashed another intense taste of the band’s upcoming debut EP, entitled “Veins of Sulfur”, scheduled to be released on July 11. Following the release of the powerful first single “Empire’s Downfall”, today STARLIT PYRE are presenting a lyric video for the brand new track “On my Own”! 

The band reveals about the song: “‘On my Own’ is the catchiest and the most ‘easy listening’ song of the EP. Sure, there are plenty of fast riffs and aggressive parts, but this track leans more into melodies, harmonies, and sing-along moments – especially in the chorus and in the two guitar solos. We played our first gig last week in our hometown and we closed our set with this song, to leave a mark on the crowd. According to their reaction, we’ll do this again!”

While STARLIT PYRE seems to be a fresh name on the scene, the individuals within its ranks are seasoned veterans. Formed in early 2024, the band unites musicians from well-regarded French acts including Temnein, Theorem, Bloody Rabbeat, Silicium, Praetorian, and Faded Echoes. This collective experience has clearly forged a focused and powerful sound.

Speaking about their first offering, STARLIT PYRE shared: “When we started crafting our first songs, it quickly became clear that Empire’s Downfall was the one that deserved the spotlight. Musically, it strikes a balance between velocity, groove, dynamic and atmospheres — all while carrying the melodic signature that defines our sound.

The music video introduces a divine figure who also appears on the cover of our upcoming record. She enters a chaotic world on the brink of collapse and uses her powers in an attempt to prevent the impending apocalypse…

We’re very proud to kick off our musical journey with this track, which also serves as the opening song on our debut EP, set for release on July 11th.“
