Band information

Formed in Perth in 2005, Anime Fire crossed melodic metalcore with electronic ambience and drum n' bass loops. The band's first EP Where the Wolves Fear to Tread was one of Skull and Bones' first releases. After that appeared in 2007, the band went on to support I Killed the Prom Queen and played at the Perth leg of the Soundwave festival in 2008, along with doing shows alongside Bring Me the Horizon and Killswitch Engage. Former Gallows for Grace guitarist Joel Dimasi joined Anime Fire in the same year and in early 2009 a second EP release emerged. The band's debut full-length was planned for release in 2010 but the band split up in November 2009. Mat Rowe released a solo album under the name Leviathan of the Sea in September 2011.
