Alexisonfire have shared "Reverse the Curse" from their upcoming album Otherness.
The song, which is about facing one's demons, is based on an old, Kyuss-like riff that the band have had kicking around for a couple decades. Said lead screamer George Pettit, "Some riffs stick around for a while until they make sense. 'Reverse the Curse' has existed in one form or another since Crisis. There was even a version that we used as the original 'Young Cardinals' but that one wasn't meant to be. It found its way to creation during our COVID rehearsals and I'm glad it's finally coming to light."
Hear the song below, along with some track commentary by the band. Otherness is out June 24 on Dine Alone. The band's expanded tour schedule is also below.
