FIT FOR A KING have announced their new album The Hell We Create. It arrives on October 28 via Solid State Records. Pre-order it here.
Today, the band has shared the video for ‘End (The Other Side).‘
“‘End (The Other Side)’ is one of the most personal songs I have ever written, lyrically,” says singer Ryan Kirby. “This song is about my wife’s near-death experience, after having a stroke, and how the experience not only showed me how unprepared I was to lose her, but also how unprepared I am to face death. I am fortunate to have not dealt with much death in my life, but I learned, in the end, that death comes for us all.”
About the album, Kirby says, “It is a reflection of the events that happened throughout the pandemic. In short, my wife and I adopted children and had to homeschool them. She almost died from a stroke. The Hell We Create is by far the deepest and most personal record we’ve ever written.” In the end, Fit For A King delivers an important message on the record. “I want to raise self-awareness,” Kirby finishes. “It’s not just important to fight for ourselves, but we’re fighting for others. You can reach out for help even if you’re scared. I know I was. I hope we can all reflect on not only what we put ourselves through, but what we put others through.” |
