The platelet-splattered video has a post-apocalyptic, horror movie vibe, as bloodied band members find themselves in precarious positions. How does it all play out? Well, even in you’re squeamish, you’ll have to watch and see.

“‘Chains’ is about being your own worst enemy and going to war everyday with yourself to try and break through your mental hurdles,” the band explains. “You control your life’s outcome but it is easier said than done and sometimes you end up in a terrible situations and mindsets. We really wanted to portray this in our video.”

The band’s previous hit single “Nightmare (The Devil)” was released to wide success across the globe, peaking at No. 12 on the rock radio charts. The band’s catalog continues to grow and attract fans and followers at a rocket-like clip, accumulating 650 million streams across their entire body of work, as well as over 320 million views on YouTube.

Following a series of inventive and innovative viral covers, the band served up the original ‘Transitions’ EP in 2017, maintaining their momentum with 2020’s ‘LEVELS’“Her Eyes” gathered over 15 million Spotify streams followed by “HEADSPACE (feat. POORSTACY)” with 13 million Spotify streams. ‘Welcome to the Chaos’ saw them ascend yet again fuelled by the likes of “Plastic Heart” and “Welcome to the Chaos (feat. Spencer Charnas of Ice Nine Kills)“, which vaulted into the Top 15 at Rock Radio. The band also toured alongside Falling In ReverseIce Nine Kills, and ONE OK ROCK.

In between selling out headline gigs, the guys decamped to Los Angeles in order to record ‘The Death Card’ with producer Erik Ron (Godsmack, Motionless In White, Panic! At The Disco). “This was our first time working with a producer,” recalls Bryan. “Erik kept us on track, and he pushed me as a lyricist and songwriter to make everything cohesive.” Threading this body of work together even tighter, each song corresponds to its own tarot card.

Tarot cards might give perspective, soothe the uncertainty of mental health, or simply enable you to make better sense of your life. Fame on Fire use music in much the same way. The quartet process frustrations, fears, and feelings with a malleable musicality, matching emotions to moments of precise hard rock, piano-laden melody, manic electronics, and relatable pop catharsis. After generating over 100 million streams, packing shows, and earning acclaim, the band ponder fate and the future on their third full-length offering, ‘The Death Card’.
