Messa IGNITE Doom with NEW VIDEO "Fire on the Roof"

MESSA Unleash a Moody AF Track and Music Video

The Italian conjurers of scarlet doom, MESSA, have cracked open the gates of the abyss once more—this time unleashing the smoldering new video for "Fire On The Roof", ripped straight from the heart of their latest masterpiece, The Spin. Dropped via Metal Blade Records on April 11th, this fourth full-length is MESSA at their most daring, their most defiant, their most divine.

The Spin isn’t just an album—it’s a voyage. A windswept journey across vast sonic skies, stitched together with moods that rise, fall, claw, and comfort. MESSA’s self-forged brand of scarlet doom—that intoxicating blend of doom metal’s shadowy crawl and a kaleidoscope of otherworldly influences—has never felt so alive. This record doesn’t just breathe; it howls, burns, soothes, and destroys. From Belfry (2016) to Feast For Water (2018) to Close (2022), MESSA have been building toward this moment. And with The Spin, they aren’t just knocking on the door of the big leagues—they’re kicking it down.

The metal press has been catching fire right alongside them. Metal Injection nailed it, crowning MESSA as “purveyors of the catchiest doom”, while Decibel Magazine raves about The Spin as a sprawling beast that melds doom, goth, heavy metal, and even jazz into one sinuous, hypnotic whole. Deaf Forever calls it “their strongest album to date,” hailing MESSA as one of the most creative and exciting bands of the modern era. And Metal Hammer Germany? They’re ready to hand MESSA the crown for their fearless fusion of haunting vocals, intimate silences, and earth-rattling riffs.

Now, about that "Fire On The Roof" single—it isn’t just another doom-laden dirge. This track bleeds with forbidden desire, the kind of magnetism between two souls that feels like both a blessing and a curse. The band captures that raw vulnerability, that gut-level trust, in a song that burns like a flame you can’t smother. Or, in MESSA’s own words:

“Some have experienced forbidden and impossible love. The curse, the fear, the flames that guide you to hell. Magnetism between two humans is hard to ignore – but what gets in the way with those interactions? This song’s a testament to trusting your own guts and vulnerability.”

So light the match, lean into the fire, and let MESSA show you how doom metal can still seduce, scar, and set your soul ablaze.
