"Days of Fire" now in stock
We now have available the long awaited new MEATJACK CD "Days of Fire" in our store section. The CD's official release date is September 9, but you can order it now from us and we'll get it out to you promptly.

"Days of Fire"  is MEATJACK’s most fully realized release to date. Listeners encounter the band melding a well-crafted melodic sensibility with their traditional storm of sonic pummeling. Dense and multi-layered, the 10 new songs invoke a roller coaster ride of aural energy, ranging from the all-out riff rock of "Sleep," to the dark and foreboding title track, from the III-era Zepplinesque acoustic instrumental "Blue," the manic ".45," to the ethereal monolith that is "Crawl." Renowned artist Stephen Kasner provides his otherworldly art as the perfect compliment to MEATJACK's music.
