Cage Fight (TesseracT, ex-Eths) Debut New Song, “Hope Castrated”

Cage Fight, featuring TesseracT guitarist James Monteith and former Eths vocalist Rachel Aspe, have unveiled their debut single. The outfit released a song called “One Minute” in early 2020 but have since removed it, opting for a fresh start (and updated lineup) with “Hope Castrated.”

Bassist Jon Reid (Broken Chakra) and drummer Nick Plews (Corpsing and Aghast) round out the lineup, which sees the TesseracT guitarist tackle faster, nastier and riffier fare than you’re likely expecting, way more post-hardcore than anything tech or metal-related. It’s a fiery, spirited jam and you’re already moshing; listen below!

Monteith explains:

“I’m really excited to announce Cage Fight and release our first track- ‘Hope Castrated’. We’re making raw heavy music with no frills or pretensions; just pure aggression and energy. It’s also a cathartic release for all the frustration and anger we have about the ills of the world today.”

Says Aspe: 

“This project is musically packed full of visceral rage, but there’s also an underlying message of positivity and unity. I can’t wait to take these songs to the stage later in 2021, be ready!”

Cage Fight promise “more news soon” on their first album.
