Vocalist Greg Puciato (ex-The Dillinger Escape Plan, The Black Queen, Killer Be Killed) is launching a solo career with his debut album Child Soldier: Creator of God this summer. Puciato is streaming the crushingly industrial new track "Fire For Water" right now, which features Puciato on all instruments and vocals alongside ex-The Dillinger Escape Plan drummer Chris Pennie.
“I started writing in May or so of 2019, for what I thought would be the next Black Queen album, except that’s not at all what came out. So, just like with everything else that’s been born from necessity, it felt like the right time to create a home for anything that I do that didn’t fit neatly under any other existing roof. The misfits needed a place to go,” explains Puciato about releasing his first solo album. “This particular song came out really quickly. I guess it’s me reclaiming and owning the abrasive part of me. This whole album is, in a way, a very extreme statement of ownership.”
"Fire For Water" was produced by Nick Rowe (Vampire Weekend, Haim) and mixed by Steve Evetts (The Dillinger Escape Plan, The Cure).
