As they sign with the M-Theory Audio record label, hard rock/heavy metal project, Firstborne, have unleashed their first single “Wake Up.” The band features Chris Adler (Lamb of God, Megadeth), virtuoso guitarist Myrone (known by some as the originator of soft shred), and vocalist Girish Pradhan (Girish and the Chronicles, The End Machine). Accompanied by a music video directed by Drew Kaufman (Two Minutes to Late Night), the track offers fans a taste of what to expect from their debut full-length, Lucky, out July 18th.

Guitarist Myrone explains how the album came together:
“When Chris, Girish, and I got connected in 2019 I said my number one goal in life was to get us all in the same room to jam. Four years later not only did we get in the same room, we went to Machine’s barn in Texas for a month to create 10 piping hot metal jams for the whole world to enjoy. I had written around 150 song ideas before stepping in the studio, and we ended up using none of them. What you hear on the record was entirely written and recorded in Texas.”
Formed in 2019, Firstborne blend high-energy riffs, soaring vocals, and thunderous rhythms to create a modern yet timeless sound rooted in classic metal, hard rock, and shred guitar. The band first gained attention through a series of independently released singles and EPs between 2020 and 2023, showcasing their signature fusion of melody, technical precision, and relentless groove. In late 2023, Firstborne recorded their debut full-length album Lucky with acclaimed producer Machine (Clutch, King Crimson, Crobot). That album will see a release on M-Theory Audio and pre-orders are available now for limited-edition colored vinyl, CD and Digital. With Adler’s iconic drumming, Myrone’s signature guitar work, and Pradhan’s dynamic, powerhouse vocals, Firstborne are a force to be reckoned with in the hard rock and metal scene — delivering high-energy anthems that bridge the gap between old-school metal and modern intensity.
