Welcome to the online home of ArcticFlame

Fire, the passion and belief in one's music and one's self. Ice, the ability to ignore all who criticize or think they know what's best and continue doing what you believe in. These are just two of the qualities found in heavy metal's newest member, ArcticFlame. In a world where everyone follows the flavor of the month, AF sticks to their guns and creates music they grew up on and continue to enjoy.

As some of you may have already heard, the TMT Metal festival has been postponed due to a miscommunication with the venue (that's their official statement anyway). New date and place will be announced when they get their shit together. As for the band, they are taking the summer off from performing live. That doesn't mean that they aren't busy. Writing for the EP is completed and a few songs for next full length have been started. Some interesting material has been written and a surprise cover song have been discussed. Well, it's a bit humid here, so it's time to guzzle a cold beer!!! Have a metal summer and hope to see you guys soon!!!!! Flame On!!!!!

A little late news... On April 25th drummer Mike Paradine was the guest speaker at Saint Andrews RC Church in Bayonne, NJ which his niece Casey, attends. He covered topics such as diversity, starting a band, the music industry and illegal down loading. Mike states, "The one mistake was giving out a set of drumsticks to each student in the beginning of the session. Forgetting that they were in the 3rd grade, they constantly banged the sticks on their desks prompting me to once in a while to tell them to put the damn things down. I should have given them out at the end of the discussion. At least I learned something!!!!!" As he tells it, "there where many, many questions and to tell the truth, I had a real good time. Hats off to the 3rd Grade at Saint Andrews RC Church in Bayonne, NJ."
