Bio:
God Fires Man is a heavy sonically dense rock band from NYC.
Formed in the summer of 2006, God Fires Man promptly recorded and released an online-only 5 track EP to a great success, followed by a UK tour in January 2007 with Hundred Reasons and Kids In Glass Houses. Shortly after came a record deal stateside with InDeGoot Recordings, and XTRA Mile in the UK, with whom they set about recording their first full-length record "A Billion Balconies Facing The Sun" with Ethan Dussault (Cave-In, Lot 6) and Brian Virtue (Audioslave, Deftones, Jane's Addiction), released February 2008.
Having graced U.S. stages in 2008 with Taking Back Sunday, Thursday, Filter, 65daysofstatic, and Scott Weiland to name a few, God Fires Man finished their sophomore album, Life Like, with producer Alex Newport (At The Drive In, Mars Volta, Death Cab) in January 2009. Life Like was released June 26, 2009 on Arctic Rodeo Recordings (EU/JP/UK), and self-released exclusively on iTunes in October 2009 (N. & S. America, OZ/NZ). The release of Life Like was followed up in October-November 2009 with their first headlining tour in Germany, with plans of more touring (US, EU, & UK) in 2010.
