Bloodlet have debuted a new single by the title of “Stealing Fire“, which will appear on their next studio album. Speaking of the track, the band offered:
“We have been working on an LP that we expect to come out later this year, but when the tour with Darkest Hour and Zao came along, we wanted to share at least one of the songs in advance of the tour. It was a tough choice, because we’re really excited about the new songs, but we decided ‘Stealing Fire’ was a good one that has elements of our past, but still hints at the style of the album.”
The band’s drummer Charles King added:
“‘Stealing Fire‘ is the story of Prometheus’s eternal punishment for gifting fire to man. For his crime he was chained to a rock and had his liver eaten by a bird every night only to be reborn and suffer the same fate again. He was offered his freedom many times if he would turn his back on man, but refused and embraced his suffering. I am drawn to this story as it perfectly fits into the feelings Bloodlet has always tried to convey in our lyrics as well as our music; Righteous suffering and catharsis through pain.”
