In Shallows Return With Thought-Provoking New Single "World Fire"

IN SHALLOWS RETURN WITH THOUGHTFUL SINGLE “WORLD FIRE”

New Hampshire heavy music up-and-comers In Shallows are back with “World Fire,” their first triumphant single of 2024.

“World Fire” is the direct follow-up to their viral hit “Venom,” which exploded on TikTok after its release in the summer of last year, amassing more than half a million streams on Spotify alone. With this new single, the band once again balances ferocious intensity with catchy accessibility, drawing comparison to the best in the modern metalcore genre. With “Venom” receiving praise as “stellar instrumentals and powerful lyrics” from the likes of New Noise Magazine, the band aims to further solidify themselves amongst the next generation of heavy music icons with “World Fire.”

While instrumentally the band takes a “don’t mess with a good thing” approach, lyrically, they’ve stepped their game up, matching the instrumental vigour with a thought-provoking edge describing the world around them. “We thought this song was necessary in light of recent events around the world.” The band continues, “We didn’t just take our words and put them in a song, we were sick of watching the news everyday with the same droning nonsense. It got to the point that we realized the world was engulfed with negativity. “World Fire” metaphorically reflects our views of humanity failing and creating our own destruction.”

With almost a year between this and their latest recent single, there’s one thing you can without a doubt say about In Shallows; there’s an intent and a purpose behind every release. This idea is perfectly encapsulated in “World Fire,” as the band internalizes the world around them to deliver a truly anthemic song for the masses. It’s been said before, and we’ll say it again, brace yourselves for the upward trajectory this talented young band is facing, as there’s plenty more on the horizon.

ABOUT IN SHALLOWS

In Shallows is a four peice metalcore outfit based in Keene, NH. With the release of their first single “Phantom Grace” in June of 2021, the band confidently planted themselves in the heavy music scene. They quickly followed it up in October with “Beneath The Surface”, a 5-track EP that delivers in-your-face breakdowns, heavy guitar riffs, and drumming that hits you directly in the chest. Paired with the ever so sweet mixture of scream and singing vocals, In Shallows was determined to drive their lyrics down their fans throats.

Following the success of their EP, the band was eager to push the limits a little further. They teamed back up with their producer/recording engineer Robbie Litchfield at Hell Here Studios where they recorded and released a cover of Post Malone’s “Hollywood’s Bleeding”, which caught the attention of many new listeners. After playing along side acts as Saving Vice, ENOX, and If Not For Me throughout 2023 and with new music on the horizon, it’s safe to say In Shallows isn’t slowing down anytime soon.
