Austin rockers Fire From The Gods have unveiled a brand new version of their single “Thousand Lifetimes.” This time around, the song features Living Colour’s Corey Glover. The track is initially taken from the group’s latest effort, Soul Revolution, but takes a new life with Glover’s vocals added to the mix.
AJ Channer comments:
“Linking up with Corey Glover is one of those ‘once in a lifetime’ opportunity. Living Colour were trail blazers. His voice compliments the track in a big way. Enjoy this family. Respect.”
Corey Glover adds:
“This song is about struggle, the thing about the band itself, they are not just about underdog stories, but a social consciousness about what that means. There’s a subtlety about the song and a bombastic thing as well, and that, is what appeals to me. You hear AJ’s pathos more than anything else. He’s persevering through that struggle, that pain and that is what is amazing to me and he’s amazing.”
“Thousand Lifetimes” is released in celebration of Black History Month as Channer further comments:
“The influence of black people on rock and metal isn’t an afterthought to me. I’m now part of that legacy. This time of year is set aside to highlight things like that. So we linked up with the legendary voice of Corey Glover on A Thousand lifetimes to continue and contribute to that legacy. Maybe BET Awards will include the rock and metal category and give us a shout. One could only hope. Mad love fam in us we trust and all power to the people. Peace. ”
