Metal

High on Fire is an American heavy metal band hailing from Oakland, California. Formed in 1998 by Matt Pike, Des Kensel, and George Rice, the band has become a prominent figure in the metal scene. With their powerful sound and intense performances, High on Fire has released eight studio albums to date.

In 2019, they were honored with a Grammy award for "Best Metal Performance" for their song "Electric Messiah." Their music is characterized by Pike's commanding vocals and guitar work, supported by the solid bass lines of *Jeff Matz* and the thunderous drumming of *Coady Willis* (since 2021).

Over the years, High on Fire has undergone some lineup changes but has consistently delivered their signature heavy sound. Former members include *Des Kensel*, who played drums from 1998 to 2019, and various bassists such as *George Rice*, *Joe Preston*, and *Mike Leon*. The band draws inspiration from genres like stoner rock and doom metal.
