Claim The Throne - Firestorm (2021) / Official Audio / Perth Bush Fire Relief Awareness & Donations

In February 2021, the Eastern Hills areas of Perth, Western Australia, were ravaged by a fierce bushfire that took the homes of many unfortunate people, devastating their lives. One such victim was interviewed by media donning a Claim The Throne shirt. Surrounded by his family and chooks, he described the harrowing details of what was lost and just how dangerous the blaze was. Immediately we began thinking of ways the metal community could help to provide relief for those whose lives were impacted by the bushfires, and settled on the the idea to re-work an unrecorded song from the On Desolate Plains era. Firestorm was released on Bandcamp only, with 100% of sales being committed to the cause. Now that the campaign is done, we have added the song to our YouTube and Streaming platforms. The money raised was donated to the Lord Mayor’s Distress Relief fund. If you are in the position to do so, we encourage you to donate to Perth Bush Fire Relief via one of the links below; Lord Mayor’s Distress Relief Fund - Red Cross - Salvation Army - Native Animal Rescue - Volunteer Hardship Assistance Scheme - FIRESTORM The path that knows no end I shall build it’s destination It’s calling me Across unnamed destiny Brighter than daylight Vast and never ending Fire storm The sky was grey The air was soiled Fire storm Unbeknown A drought inside of me Fire storm My pulse is slowly weakening Fire storm Utter delirium To look at, to wonder The summer enfolds Ablaze on it’s expedition It’s storming fierce Entrenching it’s destiny Abodes torn apart Flaming armageddon Miles away it plunges Threatening, pummelling Creeping inland Within moments Vaporised Fire Fire storm The sky had cleared The air was cold Fire storm The rain it falls Extinguishing the fire storm My spirit is awakening Fire storm Relief is here to overcome To stand back, to ponder credits
