Prepare for an exhilarating journey as Fight The Fade invites you into the heart of the storm with “Eye Of The Hurricane“, the third single from their highly anticipated album, slated for release in late 2024 from FiXT.
 
“Eye Of The Hurricane” emerges as a anthemic powerhouse. With its relentless energy and anthemic hooks, “Eye Of The Hurricane” serves as a rallying cry for the defiant and the determined. The song’s lyrics speak to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity, urging listeners to find their strength and rise above the chaos. “Eye Of The Hurricane” addresses the experience of feeling overwhelmed by someone who exudes self-importance. It channels the frustration of being overshadowed by such individuals, likening them to storms devoid of substance. Evolving from its initial lyrical concept, the track underwent a transformation with the addition of storm sound effects in the bridge, immersing listeners in the midst of a tempest, effectively capturing the intensity and chaos of the situation.
 
“I think we’ve all had someone in our lives who thinks the world revolves around them. ‘Eye Of The Hurricane’ is a battle cry to anyone who has felt steamrolled by one of those people. Many of those people are all thunder and no lightning,” explains Fight The Fade’s Zene Smith. 
 
Known for pulling together influences from rock, metal, and electronic music, Fight the Fade has forged an unmistakable sonic identity that wraps heartfelt lyrical themes within a robust production style and delivers them with nuanced and diverse writing approaches. The band’s work ethic and innovative blend of genres led them to an album deal with independent electronic rock label FiXT in late 2020, with Fight the Fade releasing singles throughout 2021, leading to a full-length album APOPHYSITIS released in July 2022.
 
“Eye Of The Hurricane“ is out now on all platforms from FiXT.

Their latest single captures a message of hope and renewal through energetic guitars, pulsating synthesizers, and driving rhythms, the track invites listeners on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment. 

In their own words, “My life is about living in the present and embracing life as it is, learning to let go in order to move forward instead of holding onto all our grudges. Time is precious, and “life could be better” “if I stop to see” and realize that these are moments we should all cherish. We want listeners to come away with a positive outlook on their own lives, realizing that all time is precious. If we stopped to consider this, we might see that our lives could be better by seizing the moments we have and simply being in the present.”

In a world of boundaries Beyond Unbroken refuses to be defined by one genre. Founded by former Escape The Fate members, brothers Monte and Michael Money, the band habitually crosses the lines, mixing genres the way an artist mixes paint with results that often defy expectation. 

They released their first single “Under Your Skin” in 2015 and debuted their first independent EP Don’t Wake The Dead in 2017 with producer Matt Good of From First To Last. The EP was well received with the animated video “Overdose” earning millions of views upon release. Their first debut album, Running Out of Time, followed in 2020 with singles earning millions of streams and premiering on Alt Press. 

On April 29, 2020, the band covered Lil Peep and Twenty One Pilots mashup, “Falling Down + Heathens” and it remains the band’s most streamed track to this day. In 2021 the band released a one-off single “With Or Without Me” on the FiXT Radium Compilation which eventually led to the band signing with the label in 2023.

The lyrics delve into the complexities of parasocial relationships, where individuals form emotional bonds with personas in media, reflecting on the impact of technology on human interaction. In their own words, Young Medicine asks, “Have you ever been stalked online by someone you barely know? We delved into the one-sided parasocial relationships people have with those they follow online—how people feel entitled to a constant window into your life and communication based on this idea they have of you. We have received some crazy messages and even in-person encounters of this sort over the past few years and wrote this song from the perspective of the “stalker,” stylistically pulling from metal, synthwave, and TRL-era boy band melodies.”

Thumping double-bass beats and crunchy guitar riffs hammer out hard-hitting rhythms while chorus lines partner with sparkling retro synth tones for a stunning mix of audio ideas.

In their own words ENMY explains, ““The song was lyrically written in the car while driving to the studio where we were supposed to track vocals for a different song. We ended up getting so caught up in this song that our schedule was scrapped and we ended up tracking “The Ledge” instead.”
 
The official music video for “The Edge,” directed and produced by Will Story, is an ominous depiction of the songs lyrics with its ambiguous displays of “Faith,” “Chaos,” and “Home,” on top of the heavy soundscape. With thought provoking lyrics inspired from the human tendency to put others up on a pedestal to be perfect In the end, we are all human and we make mistakes.

ENMY delivers a dichotic performance that is both unapologetically fierce and profoundly introspective. After all “There is comfort in the chaos…”
 
ENMY (pronounced “Enemy”) is a four-piece hard rock band originating from Cincinnati, OH. ENMY brings a fresh and energetic sound to modern day rock and metalcore by crafting a unique blend of soaring vocals, groove oriented instrumental play, and electronic melodies.

Izzy Reign Signs with FiXT and Re-releases Single ‘Broken By Design’

Apr 15, 2024 — Leave a comment

FiXT is proud to announce the signing of alt-cyber-pop-metal artist Izzy Reign. To celebrate FiXT is re-releasing the metalcore industrial single “Broken By Design.” 

Bold. Eclectic. Rebellious. Izzy Reign thrives on originality and thinking outside the box. Her music is nothing short of a reflection of this. Her father was an avid drummer and she grew up singing to Alanis Morisette, Jewel, and Madonna with her mother. Inspired by Enter Shikari’s music video “Sorry You Are Not A Winner” and the musical stylings of Imogen Heap, Izzy took the plunge into the industry and played her first live show when she was 15 years old. 

Since then she’s taken a deeper dive into production, songwriting and performing, working with a variety of artists that come through the production house she shares with producers Jon Eberhard (I Prevail, Skillet, Sleeping With Sirens) and Nick Matzkows (Wind Walkers, Until I Wake, ENMY, Attack! Attack!). Over the past four years she has released a myriad of covers, originals and music videos on her YouTube channel racking up millions of views. She has received notable attention for her popular The Nightmare Before Christmas cover of “This Is Halloween”, which has over 10 million streams across Spotify and YouTube along with 25,000 videos using the sound on TikTok.

“I wanted to create something that embodied the different styles and backgrounds of multiple genres that’s I’ve grown up with and have recently learn to love in one. Musically inspired by artists like Eiffel 65 and Daft Punk, mixed with artists like Bring Me The Horizon, Poppy, and K/DA. This song to me, is a mental conversation I’ve had with myself about feeling numb to the world on a wider spectrum resulting from a past of growing up thinking the world and intentions of people were one way, and learning later on that it was indeed the opposite.”– Izzy Reign

In 2023 Izzy came to the attention of the US-based record label FiXT, through the discovery of her independent release, “Broken By Design”, which showcased a new edge to Izzy’s sound. Signing on for a multi-album deal, Izzy Reign is now set to release her debut album with FiXT in 2024. 
“Stoked to be a part of the FiXT family. This is a killer fit and I’m looking forward to these future projects together.” – Izzy Reign

“Broken By Design” is available now on all platforms from FiXT.
