Terra Inferna is without doubt the bands most dynamic and accomplished record with the new track and second single Ghosts announcing itself immediately with FLAMING WREKAGE‘s signature groove and pummelling drive. In what is undoubtedly one of the upcoming albums more innovative tracks, listeners are treated to experimental instrumentation and thought provoking lyrics throughout its duration.
With Ghosts the band’s dynamic range is on full display here, with a driving groove giving way to a spacious mid section, percussion and slide guitar play an unexpected role in what is arguably one of the more powerful sections on the entire album. It’s this sort of experimentation that gives Flaming Wrekage its own space within the modern metal lexicon. Gutsy songwriting like this has seen the band appear on Apple Music’s “Breaking Metal” with their most recent single, Witch Hunt as well as holding their position firm on Spotifys “Thrashers” editorial for 2 years straight.
2024 could not have started stronger for Flaming Wrekage. A string of Australian headline shows and several well reviewed singles, has given the band the opportunity to share the stage with one of Swedens most revered acts, Katatonia. This just shows how diverse the band’s songwriting can be. Being billed with bands outside of the thrash sphere, yet still having the songs to captivate a fan base such as Katatonia’s is a rarity in modern metal and a challenge that this Aussie quartet are more than ready for.
