Red Fang release Arrows; “Why” Video, announce US Tour

Red Fang, who released their eagerly-awaited new album Arrows (Relapse Records) on June 4th, have announced a US tour that sees the Portland-based band trek across the continent, including the group’s first Alaskan performance.

“It’ll be two years in the waiting, but we’re finally hitting the road in October! If we don’t stop pinching ourselves, we’re gonna draw blood,” guitar player Bryan Giles enthusiastically shares. “I’m so happy to announce that Starcrawler, Here Lies Man, and Warish are joining us on this epic tour! It’s gonna be a barn burner from start to finish with this line-up for sure. I can’t wait to play tunes off our new album on stage for the first time and see old friends and new, so please come join the celebration with us! Long live LIVE!!!”

Starcrawler opens on all headlining dates (except Alaska), with Here Lies Man (Oct. 15 to Oct. 27) and Warish (Oct. 29 to Nov. 18) rounding out the bill. Previously announced performances include Aug. 21 at Psycho Las Vegas, Sept. 26 at Louder Than Life, and a special Halloween show with All The Witches at the fabled Ryman Auditorium.

Produced by longtime collaborator Chris Funk (Murder The Mountains, Whales and Leeches), the 13-song album was recorded in December of 2019 but, as vocalist/bass player Aaron Beam understatedly said upon news of its forthcoming release: “something happened that is not worth discussing.” The collection, which looks to be one of the band’s most critically-revered releases, has born a pair of the year’s most memorable videos, from the Katana-gone-wrong clip for “Arrows” (https://youtu.be/lwQPJ1G2n5o) to the sad saga of Artie Von Party via the “Why” video (https://youtu.be/e8m8OD_xVAI).

Arrows pre-orders are available now, with the album available in a variety of formats, including standard and limited-edition vinyl variants, CD and cassette versions, as well as digitally. Collectible merch items include a black light poster and Arrows-themed apparel. A Red Fang x Psycho Las Vegas limited-edition Texas Hold’em themed box set is available now via Vivapsycho.com. Dubbed the Fortune Hunter Gamblers Pack, the poker-themed package includes branded casino-quality playing cards, dice, collector’s coin, custom boxing, and a card of authenticity (all featuring custom artwork by Ian Colazzo), with the LP, and a t-shirt. Digital downloads and streaming links can be found HERE.

Red Fang is Aaron Beam (bass/vocals/guitar/keyboards), Bryan Giles (guitar/vocals), John Sherman (drums), and David Sullivan (guitars). Over the course of their 16-year career, the Portland, Oregon-based band has released four studio albums (Red Fang (2009), Murder the Mountains (2011), Whales and Leeches (2013), and Only Ghosts (2016), joined Fred Armisen in an epic battle against invading zombie hordes, were joined by Paul Shaffer during a standout performance on The Late Show with David Letterman, and have created the best music videos in recent history.
