Red Fang enter the studio

Red Fang, who recently celebrated their tenth anniversary with a trio of Northwestern U.S. performances, return to the studio in February, recording the follow-up to Whales & Leeches with famed producer Ross Robinson.

“I’ve never been more excited about making a record in my life, said drummer John Sherman. The writing process for this album has been super fun and full of energy and good vibes. And the opportunity to work with Ross Robinson is so crazy – I’ve got goose bumps just talking about it!!”

Red Fang is the extreme mix of cool, wisdom, fire, life dedication and taste, offered Robinson. I’m stoked to see who they are at the deepest level on tape; anyone touched by Red Fang swim in coolness, they are true messengers of inspiration.

The band, who are trekking from Portland to begin recording at Robinson’s Venice, Calif. studio, will play two shows en route: Feb. 17 at Jub Jubs in Reno and Feb. 18 at The Catalyst in Santa Cruz.

Whales & Leeches was released in October 2013 via Relapse Records. The 11-song album landed the band on The Late Show with David Letterman and in a world of trouble in the zombie-infused video for Blood Like Cream, which featured guest Fred Armisen (https://youtu.be/elfuaxHQWlQ).  Alternative Press said Whales & Leeches was bigger, bolder, heavier, catchier and even more savagely fun.
