Watch the Visualizer for New Single “Malicious” HERE
RISING INSANE is back with their fourth studio album, Wildfires, out August 23 via Long Branch Records. The album takes an in-depth look at the consequences of our collective abstinence from empathy and challenges listeners to ignite their inner flame for change. It is an urgent call to break out of the darkness.
While RISING INSANE remains true to their post-hardcore and metalcore roots on Wildfires, the band has evolved both collectively and individually, and this evolution is clearly reflected in their new and fresh sound.
In conjunction with this announcement, today, the band released their new single “Malicious” alongside a brand new visualizer – marking the second track released off Wildfires – following the single “Reign.”
Singer Aaron Steineker comments:
“‘Malicious’ is actually quite an old song, probably even the oldest of Wildfires. I remember that we wrote the first version of ‘Malicious’ at the same time as ‘Chemicals’ but there was absolutely no comparison between that song and the finished product. We first had to understand what exactly we wanted and how we could achieve it. In this process, we had many lows, and ironically that’s the main aspect of the lyrics: You’re not satisfied with anything, nothing is good enough, you are not good enough. Everything you start is doomed to fail. Only after I added these lyrics to the song did it become ‘Malicious’ – without the many lows, the song would never have existed.”

RISING INSANE singer Aaron Steineker comments on Wildfires:
“Over the last two years, I have felt that there is a huge source of strife lurking around every corner. All we have to do is pick up our cell phone and we’re immediately thrown into a hate-filled sea of conflict, there’s so much hate everywhere. You get the feeling that the world around us is on fire when you add war, global warming, inflation, and depression to the mix. That’s how this album got the title Wildfires. Each song on the album is about a specific trouble spot, themes, and stories that have weighed on me while writing. Our goal is to create awareness through our music of how much we burden ourselves and each other instead of focusing on things that connect us and create positivity.”
