Sandveiss Turns Up the Heat with Explosive New Video for "Standing in the Fire" – Album Drops October 11th, 2024
Hold onto your hats, folks! The Quebec City heavy rock titans, Sandveiss, are back with a bang—and trust me, it’s hotter than ever. They’ve just unleashed the fiery new single “Standing in the Fire”, the title track from their highly anticipated album, dropping on October 11th, 2024. This isn’t just any single—it’s a sonic torch blazing a trail for what’s to come.
Let’s set the scene: Luc Bourgeois, the band’s fearless vocalist and guitarist, drew inspiration for this track from a source we’ve all probably binge-watched at some point—yep, the Rocky movies. Picture it: March 2020, early lockdown days, and Bourgeois is soaking in the epic soundtracks of those films with his son. Boom! Next thing you know, Standing in the Fire is born—a straight-up rock anthem that channels the raw energy of those iconic 80s bands that made us all want to pick up a guitar and start shredding.
Now, here’s where it gets interesting: lyrically, “Standing in the Fire” digs deep. We’re talking about tackling science denialism and the chaos caused by disinformation. Yeah, belief and knowledge? And the band doesn’t shy away from calling out that blurry line people seem to dance on these days. As Luc says, Sandveiss always aims to push the envelope—and on this record, they’ve cranked up every element to 11. The heavy? Heavier. The prog? Proggier. The hooks? Catchier than ever. It’s Sandveiss, but supercharged.
And just when you think it couldn’t get better, here comes Karl Daniel Lidén, the legendary producer behind Dozer, Greenleaf, and Katatonia. He’s lent his magic touch to mix and master the single, bringing out a textured, dynamic sound that takes the band’s signature style and catapults it into the stratosphere. If you’ve got a thing for Mastodon, The Sword, or Dozer, “Standing in the Fire” is gonna feel like coming home—but with more flames.
