Cage Fight unleash new single, Pick Your Fighter, with Benighted’s Julien Truchan

Cage Fight have just dropped a new single, Pick Your Fighter, featuring Benighted’s Julien Truchan.

Taken from their forthcoming album Exuvia – which is due out on May 1 via Spinefarm – vocalist Rachel Aspe announces, “We wanted to write a fun, sing-along party song with themes of determination and fighting spirit, and the result is Pick Your Fighter.

“I also wanted to pay tribute to a French artist who marked my teenage years, and my dad suggested Nâdiya, an R&B singer who is huge back home. Musical and lyrical motifs in Pick Your Fighter nod to Nadiya’s hit Et C’est Parti, a motivational party song that was a huge hit.

“The crowning touch is some very heavy guest vocals from my French friend Julien Truchan of the band Benighted. And there are pig squeals, many pig squeals!”
