Fit for a King began the night with their song “The End’s Beginning” from their newest album Deathgrip released on October 7^th, 2016. Deathgrip is the band’s fourth album and it includes eleven songs that are sure make listeners want to get out of their seats. Vocalist Ryan Kirby stated that their song “Pissed Off” refers to Isis’s attack in France. The band was touring in Europe when this attack occurred which set the mood for their album Deathgrip that was created there as well.
