Denver, Colorado, a hot bed of underground metal in recent years, has birthed it's latest breakout band, ARSON CHARGE. Melding thrash metal and hardcore punk, the five piece are selling out shows throughout the region as word spreads like wildfire across the country, without even releasing an album yet...until now. Today, the band announces the release of their debut record, A Dying Light, set for release on October 3rd with Anxious & Angry. 

Commenting on the new record, vocalist Ben Roy says: 

Colorado’s melodic punk torchbearers Record Thieves return with “The Deep,” a crushing, emotionally-charged new single that launches the countdown to their just-announced full-length album, Tragic Company, due out September 26 via Thousand Islands Records.

The 17-track LP—a bold and expansive evolution of the Record Thieves sound. is gritty, anthemic, and razor-sharp. The new single "The Deep" showcases the band’s trademark blend of melodic hooks and driving aggression, delivering a cathartic punch that hits both the heart and the gut.
