New Music Release: "Red Goliath"

Canadian technical death metal band Archspire has debuted their latest single, "Red Goliath," from their forthcoming album, *Too Fast To Die*, set to release on April 10, 2026. The track exemplifies the band's signature style, characterized by rapid tempos and intricate musicality. Guitarist Dean Lamb described the creative process behind "Red Goliath," likening it to the challenge of solving a complex math problem. He humorously stated, “Have you ever wanted something sooooo bad, but it just didn’t exist or seem possible? Like hot carbonated coffee or underwear that doesn’t make your back fat pop out like two extra butt cheeks? Well, that’s exactly how we felt writing our song, ‘Red Goliath!’”

Upcoming Album: *Too Fast To Die*

*Too Fast To Die* is a crowdfunded project that reflects Archspire's commitment to pushing the boundaries of extreme metal. The album is anticipated to showcase the band's technical prowess and unique sound, further solidifying their reputation within the genre.
