Many Rooms, unexplored I keep away from those doors But I get pulled towards And I listen to the voices Stern commands, this is who you are The Fighter, The Butcher Bird You walk, You Walk, You walk With Fire Then you find you run towards The place that you’ve Been running from The knowing is quiet But it won’t be ignored I have no, no control Over the direction anymore I can’t hide, my armies They will find me, everytime Stern commands, this is who you are The Fighter, The Butcher Bird You walk, You Walk, You walk With Fire

New Light 03:33
It went so fast My head was spinning But time stood still even just for a minute And it feels so close Like I’m still in it And the new light brings me back We have been to the heart of the sun But we were too young to burn Wasting days like they were endless Living life... Like we’ll be young forever We’ll be kids forever They say it's never the way you remember And the past always seems so much better but my heart remembers all our Decembers And the new light brings me back We have been to the heart of the rain And how I wish that we could stay Wasting days like they were endless Living life... Like we’ll be young forever We’ll be kids forever

We stand before this silent Valley Galaxies mapped with stars Mirror us and who we are I will wait for you At the edge of the Abyss We are strung together woven into Galaxies Of atoms And cells And blood and Code We are supernatural beings There's more to see Than what you see I will wait for you At the edge of the abyss We will drive together into nothingness

The Drums 03:38
I only hear the drums the drums the drums that make me scared I only hear the voices, they’re far but they seem near Don’t you know that sound travels further under a full moon? I had visions and magical thinking I walked every night Out of my body There’s something in my soul Dark and hungry I’m looking for rest, but that won’t come easy to folks like me All I really want is freedom But there’s too much debris inside of me I only hear the wind the wind blow angry through the pines Their song is sharper through the needles Don’t you know that sound travels further under a full moon? I had visions and magical thinking I walked every night Out of my body There’s something in my soul Dark and hungry I’m looking for rest, but that won’t come easy to folks like me All I really want is freedom But there’s too much debris inside of me

about

After a two year hiatus, Hunter As a Horse return with their third EP release, ‘Walk With Fire’.

Drawing from years of high altitude isolation, olive cultivation and Hendrix mixtapes on repeat in the Tuscan mountains combined with an impulsive rediscovery of their roots in native South Africa, ‘Walk With Fire’ is the sequel to 2016’s ‘The Two Magics’, contributing four new tracks to their necromancer’s charter.

Opening track ‘Walk With Fire’ heralds a folkore-imbued salute to re-asserting control of the past to navigate the future, while the thudding guitar riffs of ‘The Drums’ summon a parasomnic Mother Nature to battle, culminating on the edge of a climactic ‘The Abyss’ . Whilst the dreamy 80s revivalist nostalgia of ‘New Light’ draws the ceremony to a close.

Featuring in commercials from Mercedes Benz and in American television series’ such as ‘Riverdale’ and ‘American Horror Story’, Hunter as a Horse look to continue producing, developing and exposing not only their own music but that of new artists via their recently launched Johannesburg-based music label Bad Future Records.
