LIKE MOTHS TO FLAMES: 'I Solemnly Swear' Video Released

July 11, 2013

"I Solemnly Swear", the new video from the Columbus, Ohio metal/hardcore act LIKE MOTHS TO FLAMES, can be seen below. The song comes off the band's second full-length album, "An Eye For An Eye", which was released on July 9 through Rise Records. The follow-up to 2011's "When We Don't Exist" was once again recorded at Machine Shop Productions in Belleville, New Jersey with producer Will Putney (MISS MAY I, FOR TODAY, SUICIDE SILENCE).

"After almost two years, we are very excited to release our new record, 'An Eye For An Eye'," states vocalist Chris Roetter. "We've had time to learn about the band and ultimately figure out the direction that we'd like to go musically. I think the record shows a lot of growth and progression as we went outside of our norm to try some different things for a few songs. We couldn't be happier with the way the record turned out and can't wait to share it with all of you."

"An Eye For An Eye" upholds LIKE MOTHS TO FLAMES' notoriously aggressive energy while revealing the band's most exciting and heavy-hitting work to date. The new album showcases maturing song structures leading with sleek guitar melodies rolling into robust riffs that complement Roetter's signature raw textured vocals and merciless lyrics. Guest vocalists Shane Told of SILVERSTEIN on "Into The Ground" and Ahren Stringer of THE AMITY AFFLICTION on "Lord Of Bones" also add to the evolving dynamic of the album that sets it apart from previous releases.

Adds Roetter: "After working with Will Putney at Machine Shop for our first album, there was no question to where we would be recording the second. We spent the months of March and April at Machine Shop working on this album, and once again, the experience was great. Putney has always had a good grasp on where the band wants to go musically and what the band wants to do and he helps us to get there."

LIKE MOTHS TO FLAMES can also be seen performing on the Monster Energy stage through the entirety of this summer's Vans Warped Tour.
