Call the Coastal Fire Dept!
Unrelenting UK post-grunge crew COASTAL FIRE DEPT. have just set loose their greatly anticipated new album, Outsiders, via all major stores. To mark the event, the industrious dirty rockers have also released a potent new
video for their recent single, Cry Your Heart Out - • Coastal Fire Dept...
Coming at you from Guernsey, and formed in 2013, COASTAL FIRE DEPT.
feature guitarist and vocalist Ollie Goddard, bassist Saad Frihmat, Ozzy
Austin on drums, and lead guitarist Jon Langlois. With a continually
developing sound and strong back catalogue of releases, COASTAL FIRE
DEPT. are truly gifted and massively productive. In 2019, the band
unleashed their debut mini-album, Control, and in 2020 the grunge
rockers racked up high acclaim for their Radio EP. In 2021, the fuzzy rock
unit dropped their first full length album, Connected, and their standalone
single, You’re Stuck, where the band collaborated with Ken Andrews
(Failure, Stone Temple Pilots, Chris Cornell). With a genuine passion to
constantly evolve, the latter part of 2021 triggered a move towards a hearty guitar-driven sound. It also saw the band record with Kellii Scott (Failure, QOTSA, Veruca Salt & more) on drums. Their singles, ‘Gun’, ‘Loner’ and ‘What Do I’ were released to widespread approval, achieving worldwide radio play and press coverage, which included significant support from Kerrang! Radio.
COASTAL FIRE DEPT will continue to tour throughout 2023 and look out for upcoming festival appearances.
