Fireball Ministry will release its first new album in seven years this October, and it's likely going to be loaded with retro bangers. Remember The Story is the band's first to feature ex-Kyuss bassist Scott Reeder, and has officially been announced to drop on October 6 via Cleopatra Records.
Remember The Story was produced and mixed by Paul Fig (Ghost, Alice In Chains), and features fantastic cover art by Caitlin Mattisson. Mattisson describes the art and relevance to the record's music as such.
The vulture represents renewal and transformation and has connections to many mythologies and cultures, from being descended from Griffins in Greek Mythology to the scientific (Latin) name of Turkey Vulture translating to Golden Purifier, which ties in to Jim's theme about a 2nd chance at life. Elements inspired by Hildgard of Bingen have been worked into the border shapes, as well as 2 blown out candles on the front. The book on the front is a Fireball Ministry hymnal shooting light. On the back of the album the candles are lit again and the vulture is flying away towards a new moon, new beginning.
