Ignite have premiered a new video for their new song “The Butcher In Me.” This track is from the band’s new self-titled album, which was officially released today (March 25). Nik Hill commented:
“’The Butcher In Me’ is a mantra built for cutting out the toxic elements in our lives, whatever they may be. We take back control when we release the anger and pain it causes and turn it into a positive.”
Ignite have premiered a new video for their new song “This Day.” This track is from the band’s new self-titled album, which will be released on March 25. Frontman Eli Santana said the following about the song:

Nik Hill said the following about the new song:
“‘On The Ropes’ feels like a modern version of an old-school Ignite song. It has that melodic bass intro that is very familiar and then it jumps into a high-energy hardcore song that gets me really pumped up when we play it. I can’t wait to play this one in a packed room.”
Brett Rasmussen also added the following about the album:
“A lot of hard work went into this album and this is the happiest I have felt about an Ignite album in a long time. It feels incredible to work this hard on a project and see the entire plan come together as anticipated.”

Ignite have premiered a new video for their new song “The River.“ This track is from the band’s new self-titled album, which will be released on March 25. The group commented:
“‘The River‘ takes a look at the dark and murky immigration issues that our country is facing at this very moment and the toll it is taking on children and their families.”
Ignite have officially welcomed Eli Santana (Holy Grail, Huntress) to the band as their new vocalist. With this news, the band have also released a new EP titled “Anti-Complicity.” That effort features two songs including the title track and “Turn XXI.” A music video for “Anti-Complicity” can be found below. Bassist Brett Rasmussen said the following about recruiting Santana:
“The energy and positivity that Eli brought to the recording studio was contagious! It was an absolute breath of fresh air for all of us and reminded me of the early days of Ignite. I really can´t wait to take these songs on tour.”
Drummer Craig Anderson also commented on the new music video:
“Filming the video for ‘Anti-Complicity Anthem‘ gave us just a small taste of how fun it is going to be to play that song live and in front of people. It´s been a while since any of us have played music in front of a crowd and we can´t wait to get back on the road.”
Zoltán “Zoli” Téglás had announced that he will be exiting Ignite after the band’s early 2020 shows in California. The singer is leaving the group to focus on “rescuing animals and other film and musical endeavors.”
Téglás said the following:
“I want to start by thanking all of the fans of Ignite for the last 25 years. I want to thank all of those who let me into their lives through the songs I sang and the music we wrote. It’s been an honor and a privilege to perform for you all.
With a heavy heart I am announcing my departure from Ignite. I am going to focus most of my time now to rescuing animals and other film and musical endeavors.
I will perform the upcoming Ignite club shows already booked in California in early 2020.
I am very hopeful Ignite will keep recording, touring, and performing, with a new singer and a new energy. I wish them the best of everything.
Thank you for so much for your love and appreciation throughout the years.
See you in the pit.
