Quebec City, Canada’s heavy rock powerhouse Sandveiss is now releasing their electrifying new single, the title track from their upcoming album “Stand in the Fire”. The single showcases the band’s signature blend of heavy riffs and melodic vocals, pushing their sound into new territories while staying true to their rock roots. Vocalist/guitarist Luc Bourgeois explains the single:
“The main idea for the song “Standing in the Fire” was written during the early days of the lockdown in March 2020, actually after watching the “Rocky” movies with my son. The soundtracks of those movies inspired me to write a straightforward rock song as a tribute to the bands that made me want to play guitar when I was a kid in the 80s.”
He goes on to say that lyrically, the song addresses science denialism and the damage caused by disinformation. Belief and knowledge are two very different things, and unfortunately, there seems to be a blurring of the lines between the two for many people. Sandveiss always tries to push things a little further on every record that they do. On this one, they expanded their boundaries on all sides: the heavy is heavier, the prog is proggier, and the catchy is catchier.
The single, mixed and mastered by renowned producer Karl Daniel Lidén (known for his work with Dozer, Greenleaf, and Katatonia), offers listeners a fresh, textured sound that elevates Sandveiss' already impressive sonic palette. For fans of heavy rock with progressive elements and powerful melodies, "Stand in the Fire" is a must-listen, especially for those with an interest in Mastodon, The Sword, and Dozer.

"As a successor to their KILLER previous album, Scream Queen, Saboteur holds its own and shows growth from the band, both in writing and musicianship. Saboteur is not meant to be played at lower decibels." - Doom Charts
"Sur ce nouvel album, le son propre et puissant sert à merveille des riffs ciselés et des mélodies accrocheuses. Chaque titre est une petite pépite de plaisir musical sertie dans une production jamais tape à l’œil, où les effets discrets relèvent la sauce." - Weirdsound
"Sometimes you hear something, and it hits you so hard it automatically becomes incredibly special to you. That has been my experience with Saboteur and Sandveiss." - Metal Nation
