Cane Hill + Special Guests
For centuries, authors, painters, poets, and filmmakers have sought out the edges of consciousness.
Often equally euphoric and nightmarish, the psyche’s outer limits transform into a powerful, albeit fickle
muse. While writing their second full-length album Too Far Gone [Rise Records], Cane Hill pushed those
limits psychologically, physically, emotionally, and spiritually, coming back from the precipice with ten
unforgettable stories masquerading as hook-heavy metallic swamp grunge.
A year of insane experiences and a handful of mind-altering substances later, the Louisiana quartet—
Elijah Witt [vocals], James Barnett [guitar], Ryan Henriquez [bass], and Devin Clark [drums]—emerge
with a dark, disruptive, defiant, and definitive body of work.
Don’t try this at home…
“We went too hard down this big spiral of LSD,” admits Witt. “A lot of these songs reference a time in
our lives when we were really headstrong about what we were doing as far as drugs were concerned
and believing we were invincible. It took this shift as we realized we were losing ourselves. I think it’s
lucky we recognized that before it became a problem. We definitely went a little bit past our limit, and
we’re coming to terms with those mistakes. We went too far gone with everything. The title
encapsulates the entire era.”
