"Ceremony of Fire is quintessential Witherfall", comments the band. "This song features elements that are cornerstones of the Witherfall sonic landscape from dark haunting hooks, to eclectic musical twist and turns. For the fans of our debut album Nocturnes And Requiems you will be very pleased with this. The Video is a great representation of the lyrical theme. Filmed in part inside the ritual chamber at The Crooked Path in Burbank California, the video represents the harsh realities of the artists path."

"Come with me, to a clearing in the field before the dawn. In time you'll see the light, in a Ceremony Of Fire"

WITHERFALL
Ceremony Of Fire

We’re all running away from ourselves
With no direction we are blind
and We feel safe in our illusions, our delusional states of mind
And now it all has come to an end…
No more pretending we are fine.
The meek shall not inherit a thing, but an existence of dread.

I will be your place and time
I’ll wipe away your fears
Give in to me you know you’re mine
Step into the shadows…

Come with me…
To a clearing in the field before the dawn
In time you’ll see the light
In a Ceremony Of Fire

There’s no room for us to pretend
That what we're doing is divine
And with every passing hour
We watch it all unwind
Everything here must come to an end
What is born will surely die
But you just keep on bowing your heads
You cannot turn back time

Into this pyre I cast what’s left
Upon the rising flames
The wicked must be sacrificed
To save us all from death

I used to dream that everything would change
But all my prayers have been denied
Now I just listen as their voices die
And Slowly I, can hear them fade… Away
Fade away

Come with me…
To a clearing in the field before the dawn
In time you’ll see the light
In a Ceremony Of Fire
Come with me…
To A Clearing in the field before the dawn
And you will see the light, In a Ceremony Of Fire

Witherfall was formed in Los Angeles in 2013. Joseph Michael (also of Sanctuary fame) and Jake Dreyer (ex-Iced Earth/Demons & Wizards) built their new band around drummer Adam Sagan (RIP) and accomplished bassist Anthony Crawford (Allan Holdsworth, CHON). Since then, the group have released three highly regarded albums: Nocturnes and Requiems (2017), A Prelude to Sorrow (2018), and Curse of Autumn (2021) and an ep Vintage (2019). Not one to cut corners, Witherfall enlisted famed drummer Marco Minnemann (The Aristocrats, Steven Wilson) on Curse of Autumn, ensuring the foundations of singles “As I Lie Awake,” “The Other Side of Fear,” and “The River” were second to none. On the new album Minnemann returns to the fold with an album-only appearance, while drummer Chris Tsaganeas (Wax Owls) and multi-instrumentalist Gerry Hirschfeld (Willie Nelson) Witherfall’s newest permanent members...
