San Diego-based metal band Fraxures is set to unleash their latest
single, “Blackheart Serenade” featuring the powerhouse vocals of
Travis Neal (formerly of Divine Heresy) and the thunderous drumming of
Fred Aching (Kings of Thrash / Powerflo / Bulletboys). With a lineup
that blends raw intensity and technical precision, Fraxures continues
to carve its own path in the modern metal scene, delivering crushing
hooks and sinister melodies.
Following the success of their 2022 EP Firewater Sessions, produced by
Billy Graziadei of Biohazard, Fraxures solidified their reputation for
seamlessly blending aggression and melody. The EP showcased the band’s
dynamic range, setting the stage for their next evolution. Firewater
Sessions was a statement of intent that the band is now ready to
expand upon.
Blackheart Serenade, mixed by Joel Wanasek (Ice Nine Kills / Machine
Head) and mastered by Maor Appelbaum (Faith No More / Cynic /
Sepultura), offers a new glimpse into the haunting energy that defines
Fraxures. The song’s punishing riffs and catchy melodies signal a new
chapter for the band, both dark and electrifying. Fraxures is in the
studio finalizing its upcoming full-length album, Hexes, which
promises to push its sound to even greater depths.
To accompany the release, Fraxures will debut the official music video
for “Blackheart Serenade” produced by Holly West (Dead Groove /
Zepparella) on BraveWords on February 6. The band will bring their
ferocious live energy to Brick By Brick in San Diego on February 8th.
Fraxures is ready to stake their claim as a rising force in modern
metal.
