Crossfire made an impact on the metal scene in late 2023 when their first LP, Switch To Reset, was released via WormholeDeath Records. The Irish quartet’s album features eight ferocious original tracks that succeeds both as a throwback to the classic metal of the 1980s and an epic modern thrash statement.
Drummer Dan O’Connor spoke with Jace Media contributor Justin Smulison to discuss a bit of the band’s history and family ties, what it takes to make long-form thrash songs in the 21st century and the vibe fans can expect when Crossfire takes the stage.
Crossfire will be working for the weekend with three shows in the UK:
- Friday, July 12 – The Gryphon, Bristol
- Saturday, July 13 – The Firebug Bar, Leicester
- Sunday, July 14 – The Dev, Camden, London [Free show!]
Song clips: “Turned to Stone,” “Switch to Reset”
