The Safety Fire To Support Gojira On Summer UK Tour

British progressive metallers The Safety Fire are extremely pleased to announce that they will be main support to the mighty Gojira on their short UK run at the end of June, and the London date is already sold out!

Guitarist Derya Nagle had this to say about the tour: “We have been huge fans of Gojira for quite some time, and are super hyped to be going out with them on this UK run. We watched them from side of stage at Sonisphere last year and it was insane. They are one of the best live bands around at the moment and it will be an honour to share the stage with them!”

The Safety Fire has always pushed the boundaries of technical, progressive metal since their inception. With their expansive atmospheres and soaring melodies, it's easy to see why vocalist Sean McWeeney, bassist Lori Peri, drummer Calvin Smith, and guitarists Derya Nagle and Joaquin Ardiles are now at the forefront of their ever growing genre.

The band released the first single 'Huge Hammers' to widespread critical acclaim. The single garnered plays from Zane Lowe amongst others. 'Huge Hammers' is the perfect taster to the release of their debut album, 'Grind the Ocean'. Mastered by Jens Bogren (well known for his work with such luminaries as Opeth, Katatonia, and Amon Amarth), the album was produced and mixed by guitarist Derya Nagle as part of his 'BlackBear Productions'.

Check out the new video, 'Floods Of Colour', from their new album 'Grind The Ocean' below.
