UK Metal Legends RAGING SPEEDHORN's New Album 'Night Wolf' is Out NOW via Spinefarm

British metal pioneers, RAGING SPEEDHORN, have released their brand-new studio album 'Night Wolf' via Spinefarm. 

RAGING SPEEDHORN drummer Gordon Morison comments:

“We’ve been blown away by the responses to both ‘Night Wolf’ and ‘Every Night’s Alright For Fighting’, and seeing the excitement from the fans ahead of today has been amazing. Making 'Night Wolf' was a joy, and we’re excited to hit the road today with Hit The Lights! If you haven’t grabbed a ticket yes, don’t miss out. These dates are going to be pure fucking chaos!”

'Night Wolf' is an album that perfectly captures the magic RAGING SPEEDHORN have been concocting over their 25-year plus career. Flitting between sludge, crushing doom and high-energy dirt-fuelled rock ‘n’ roll riffs, the sextet have matured like a fine wine and honed their craft to a new level.

Featuring ten tracks of ferocious, riff-centred metal that’s packed with strength, power, and, ultimately, song-driven groove, RAGING SPEEDHORN are once again ready to provide an antidote to mediocrity and pedestrian radio-rock.

Recorded with Russ Russell (Napalm Death, At The Gates, Dimmu Borgir) at Parlour Studios in Kettering, UK, the relationship between RAGING SPEEDHORN and Russell has been honed over many years – he has produced the Pledge Music-released 'Lost Ritual' and'Hard To Kill'.

The band’s drummer, Gordon Morrison, comments:

“Russ really captures what we want to achieve and understands the band. We always work well together and, frankly, I wouldn’t want to record with anyone else at this stage.”

'Night Wolf' is the first album to feature new guitarist Daf Williams who joins founding members Frank Regan (vocals), Gordon Morison (drums) and mainstays Jim Palmer(guitar), Andy Gilmour (bass – who also plays with UK post-hardcore legends Hundred Reasons) and second vocalist Dan Cook. This reinvigorated line-up sees RAGING SPEEDHORN not only capture the spirit of the band’s DNA but push their own musical boundaries and swagger into new uncharted territories.

Since the release of their eponymous debut in 2000, RAGING SPEEDHORN have enjoyed a career built on stunning, unhinged, raucous live shows and albums to boot. They’ve played countless worldwide shows and festivals, sharing stages with Slipknot, Clutch, Biohazard, Enter Shikari, Skindred, earthtone9 and many more.

Notably, RAGING SPEEDHORN opened up the infamous 2001 UK Ozzfest at Milton Keynes Bowl, playing in front of 50,000 metalheads; they received Kerrang! Award nominations; spent a night behind bars in Spain while on tour with Biohazard; and caused havoc during the 2002 Kerrang! Awards in London, resulting in Placebo’s Brian Molko joining in on the action and flipping over the band’s alcohol-laden table.

'Hard To Kill' was released during the global pandemic on the band’s own label Red Weed Records. Navigating the difficulties that ensued during that time, 'Hard To Kill' was RSH’s biggest release in years and made numerous UK chart appearances: #11 Rock & Indie Chart, #7 Indie Breakers Chart, #26 indie charts, and #95 physical charts – the first time the band had chart success since 2001 – all without the backing of a record label!

Having started in their original hometown of Corby, while its members are now spread across the Midlands and South Wales, the teenage spirit of rebellion and kicking against the pricks still lies in the heart of RAGING SPEEDHORN.

With 'Night Wolf' the band is as ferocious and ready to rumble as ever.

“I love being in this band, it's the only thing I've done for this long and I love playing music with these guys,” states Morison. “Why would I want to stop? It's in your blood, you can't stop. We were kids when we started, and it seems like I blinked and I'm still here doing this. We have a new album, a new deal, and if you think about it, there's not many bands from when we first started that are still going like we are.”

Morison continued:

“It's about chemistry and not giving a fuck and just believing in what you want to do. Honestly, it's been the best being in a band with these guys, it's just so easy. Every now and then there's a bit of a bicker, but there's never ever any arguments between us anymore, which I think is good. We all just get on really well, we love writing, we love hanging out, it just feels great. I wouldn't want to be in a band with anyone else, and that's half the battle there, isn't it?”

As the saying goes, you can’t keep a good thing down.

UK Metal Legends RAGING SPEEDHORN Come Out Swinging On New Video "Every Night’s Alright For Fighting"

Corby sextet RAGING SPEEDHORN return with a new, wrestling-themed music video for "Every Night's Alright For Fighting" off of their upcoming album 'Night Wolf', out on March 7th via Spinefarm.

On the video, RAGING SPEEDHORN shares:

“We all love the late 80’s/90’s wrestling era (the Golden age) and this is a video we have wanted to film for a long time. Finally we wrote ‘Every Night’s Alright For Fighting’ and we knew this was the song straight away to pay homage to some of our childhood heroes of the squared circle. The song itself embraces the more classic SPEEDHORN sound, and we’re stoked to finally release our tongue in cheek tribute to the masses. We hope you all like it! Oooooh Yeahhhh!”

'Night Wolf' marks another powerful collaboration between RAGING SPEEDHORN and acclaimed producer Russ Russell (Napalm Death, At The Gates, and Dimmu Borgir) at Kettering's Parlour Studios. Having previously helmed the band's 'Lost Ritual' and 'Hard To Kill' albums, Russell helps deliver 10 ferocious, riff-centered tracks that showcase the band's signature intensity.

“I think ‘Night Wolf’ is more of a progression of the last record,” states ringleader Morison, “that's what we've gone for really. When we first got back together after our hiatus, we didn't really know what we wanted to do. [2016’s] ‘Lost Ritual’ came quite quickly, because we didn't have enough time to write it. With [2020’s] ‘Hard To Kill’, we took more time to do it, and with‘Night Wolf’ we've taken a lot of time to do it really, we just wanted to make sure it was right this time. It's probably the longest we've ever taken to write a record; we wanted to make sure it was just right, and we were happy with it before we went in to record.”

UK Metal Legends RAGING SPEEDHORN Unveil New Video for "Night Wolf"

UK metal legends RAGING SPEEDHORN have released a video for their new single "Night Wolf", their debut release on their new label Spinefarm Records.

RAGING SPEEDHORN comments on the video:

"Shot in just over a day, the 'Night Wolf' video was inspired by our love of 80s movies and plays on a line taken from the single, "the animal inside is you". With tongue firmly in-cheek, it shows the transition from day into night and human turning into wild animal."

Watch the Video for "Night Wolf" Below.

A major presence within the UK metal scene for the past two decades, with half a dozen crushing studio outings to their name (and what a name!), RAGING SPEEDHORN have forged their reputation through hard touring, hard music, plus a no-compromise attitude… to everything.

RAGING SPEEDHORN's new single, "Night Wolf", the band’s first for Spinefarm, produced by Russ Russell, sees the six musicians – as much gang as band – delivering one of the most memorable moments of their career, with all valves glowing, all faders up and all needles flicking red.

RAGING SPEEDHORN comments on the single:

“We’re super excited to release our new single ‘Night Wolf’, produced by our brother Russ Russell at Parlour Studios. It’s got everything you need in a classic RAGING SPEEDHORN song: big riffs, thundering drums and great vocals. To us, it’s a mixture of Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath with a unique SPEEDHORN sound. 

“We’ve been inspired by one of our favourite 80s movies, and we hope our fans will enjoy the retro vibe in our artwork.”
