Official Press Release:

Born out of the southern suburbs of Perth, Western Australia in the Autumn of 2005, Anime Fire is a brooding combination of hardcore and electronic influences that have melted together to produce a sound and style that is dark, melodic, energised and emotional in its execution.



Inspired by the likes of Refused, DJ Shadow, Parkway Drive, Prodigy, Thrice, Aphex Twin and In Flames – Anime Fire deliver a new interpretation of melodic hardcore, when fused with modern metal and break beat electronica to create something all to their own.



This is an act that is not afraid to push the boundaries both in the studio and with their live show.



In the short time since the bands creation, Anime Fire have already shared the stage with a number of International and National acts in Perth including at the 2006 Taste Of Chaos Festival alongside the likes of: Taking Back Sunday, Senses Fail, Thursday, Saosin, Anti-Flag, Underoath and Parkway Drive, plus additional tour supports for I Killed The Prom Queen, Silverstein, The Unseen, From Autumn To Ashes, The Bled, Darkest Hour, Mindsnare, Miles Away and Psycroptic.



In late 2006, Anime Fire hit Perth’s Sumo Studio’s with Laurie McCallum at the helm to produce an emotive and menacing debut 6 tracker EP entitled “Where The Wolves Fear To Tread” .

With mastering by Steve Smart @ 301 Studios completed and art by Canada’s Switzerland Design all done and dusted –  “Where The Wolves Fear To Tread”  is all set for a national release on August 25 through Brisbane’s  Skull & Bones Records / Modern Music / Sony BMG (home of Johnny Truant, The Amity Affliction, Coma Lies).
