German Metalcore Band RISING INSANE Shares New Single “Monster” + Music Video – Metal Planet Music

German metalcore band DRIVING FREAK has released a new single “Sample” – the sixth track from their upcoming album Forest firesout on August 23rd via Long Branch Records. A new music video accompanies the track.

Singer Aaron Steineker comments
“It feels like we all get angry way too quickly when we see people not behaving according to our expectations. You can look at this in general, whether it’s the classic example of old people getting angry about young people or the dairy mafia getting angry about vegan replacements. People will always hate others and the whole thing is brutally amplified by social media. So there’s no point in not doing and being what you want. ‘Monster’ for me is the song that gives you exactly that feeling and just lets you do your own thing instead of always looking left and right to bitch about others.”

Rising Lunatics fourth studio album Forest fires takes an in-depth look at the consequences of our collective lack of empathy, challenging listeners to ignite their inner flame for change. It’s an urgent call to break out of the darkness.

While DRIVING FREAK remains true to their post-hardcore and metalcore roots on Forest firesthe band has grown collectively and individually – an evolution reflected in their new, fresh sound.

RISING INSANE vocalist Aaron Steineker comments on Forest fires:
“For the past two years I have felt that there is a huge source of unrest lurking everywhere. We only have to pick up our mobile phone and we are immediately thrown into a sea of hatred and conflict, there is so much hatred everywhere.

When you add war, global warming, inflation and depression to that, you get the feeling that the world around us is on fire.

This is how this album got its title Forest fires. Each song on the album deals with a specific issue, theme, and story that weighed on me while writing. Our goal is to create awareness through our music about how much we burden ourselves and each other instead of focusing on things that connect us and create positivity.
