Monteith comments: I m really excited to announce
CAGE FIGHT and release our first track, Hope Castrated . We re making raw heavy music with no frills or pretensions; just pure aggression and energy. It s also a cathartic release for all the frustration and anger we have about the ills of the world today.
Aspe comments: This project is musically packed full of visceral rage, but there s also an underlying message of positivity and unity. I can t wait to take these songs to the stage later in 2021. Be ready!

TesseracT guitarist James Monteith and former Eths vocalist Rachel Aspe have formed a new band called Cage Fight, and it sounds nothing like any of their other projects. Unlike the prog wizardry of TesseracT and the hellish groove metal of the now-defunct Eths, the new group s debut single, Hope Castrated, is a furious blend of death metal and hardcore. This is mosh pit music.
