Ross is all over the place man. The renowned producer who’s worked with everyone from At The Drive-In to Slipknot and everything in between teamed up with Red Fang on their new record. It’s called Only Ghosts.
Bassist Aaron Beam talked about recording the album in Venice Beach.
[Ross] really digs into the meaning behind the songs so that when you’re recording, you’re doing it with conviction and purpose. It’s less about the little technical things. He’s more concerned with getting a performance and focusing on what you’re trying to give the world by making this music in the first place.
The album was mixed by Joe Barresi (Queens of the Stone Age, Tool, Melvins) and features 10 tracks — including this one called “Flies.”
In August the band will be overseas doing a bunch of festival dates around Europe. Then they’ll be back in Europe for an extensive tour with Torche. North American dates should be announced shortly.
Only Ghosts comes out October 14th through Relapse Records.
