Fire in the Veins came together unexpectedly after writing some beats in Live with the 808 clone, and some of my own drum samples recorded in an empty oil drum. The idea for the synth melodies really brought me back to the 90s when I was on a steady diet of RZA produced albums. I wanted to capture that same menacing feel of impending conflict. For the remainder of the song, I employed several distortion units, Taurus re-amped through vintage tube amps, and a searing one-take vocal track to create this exercise in strength and discipline. Lust for power. Receive the fire. Implement destruction.
