Melbourne melodic hardcore/punk band Spectral Fires’ third effort, a four-track EP called ‘Turn Toward the Sun’ will see its release into the world on Friday December 7. Today, they are dropping a new cut from the record, “Before You Leave”. 

It’s the second single from upcoming EP “Turn Toward the Sun”, ‘Before You Leave’ further demonstrates why Spectral Fires’ unique brand of alternative punk/ melodic hardcore had been making waves across the local scene and beyond. Recorded by internationally renowned producer Jay Maas (Defeater, Title Fight, Citizen), this mid tempo banger has it all – fuzzy guitars, an instantly memorable chorus hook, infectious riffs, driving drums and some of the band’s best lyrical work to date. 

The outfit have also just announced their EP launch show at Melbourne’s Last Chance Rock & Roll Bar on Friday 14 December alongside their mates Bell Park and Future Static.

Harry Pratt, Spectral Fires’ vocalist/guitarist, said that “Before You Leave is a song of desperation, about grappling with your surroundings when it feels like circumstances and the people in your vicinity are conspiring against you. We wanted to make this big fuzzy track that conveys a sense of intoxication and haze, but that ultimately just rocks out. It is one which we are particularly excited for people to hear and play live, which along with playing the rest of our new EP will make our launch show on December 14 extra special – we’re nervous obviously, but ridiculously excited to have people hear the new stuff and be part of this show!
