Brought to life by longtime HIGH ON FIRE cover artist Arik Moonhawk Roper, the stunning album art is a visual interpretation of the albums enigmatic title.
Recorded at The Pass Studios in Los Angeles with producer Greg Fidelman, Snakes for the Divine is HIGH ON FIREs magnum opus, capturing every nuance of the legendary bands ongoing musical progression and evolution into one of heavy musics all time greats. Sharper, faster and darker than anything the group has ever recorded, Snakes for the Divine is an unrelenting tour de force, showcasing cult guitar hero Matt Pikes utterly unique and inventive musicianship and the bands epic, thundering sound. Premium production by Fidelman the man who produced Slayers World Painted Blood and is mixing the upcoming Metallica live album boosts HIGH ON FIREs strength and power while blackened lyrical tales of ancient wars, frozen planets and doomed societies emerge from Pikes bellowing barks and throaty war cries. From the moment the leviathan-like title track explodes to kick off the album, it is immediately evident that HIGH ON FIRE is determined to push modern heavy metal into new and uncharted realms.
