Oakland, California-based power trio High On Fire has premiered the eight-minute title track from its forthcoming album, "Snakes For The Divine", via Spin.com. The song sees the band at the peak of its powers, injecting a progressive mien into its steamroller sound while guitarist/vocalist Matt Pike conjures symbols describing "venomous reptiles, night goats, ancient crimes and endless time."
When asked for comment on "
Snakes For The Divine",
Pike described the song as "
A tale of the atmospheric union of alien crossbreeding with man's DNA and the creation of all Earth's religion by the reptilian agenda." He continued, "
It will also kick your ass!"
