Dan Donegan, guitarist for multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated hard rock band DISTURBED, has unveiled his new project, FIGHT OR FLIGHT. Fight Or Flight will release their debut album, A Life By Design?, on July 23rd via Warner Bros. Records. The first single, 'First Of The Last' will hit radio on May 21st.
The result is a collection of hypnotic and hard-hitting songs fortified by Donegan's trademark riffing and Chandler's melodic sensibility. Ra's Sean Corcoran on bass and backing vocals, and Jeremy Jayson on guitar and backing vocals complete Fight Of Flight's lineup.
"This is more hard rock," Donegan affirms. "It's got edgy moments, but there's more melody across the board. We had the chance to experiment as well. There are acoustic guitars and some electronics even. It's different all around."The stomping first single, 'First OF The Last', is an energetic anthem that's meant to be cranked as loudly as possible. "It's one of the more driving tracks on the record, and it's got my signature style," Donegan explains. "Lyrically, it's more cryptic. Dan and I spent a lot of time discussing conspiracy theories, and those conversations inspired the song."
A sample of 'First Of The Last' can be heard below:
