FlashFires – ‘Play’ EP: Supergrass On Steroids

16/03/2015 by Tom Roden

We’re no strangers to FlashFires. We’ve heard two tracks from them, both of which make their way onto their debut EP ‘Play’, and both blew us away. Which means that there is a 50/50 chance that the EP would either be great, or would be heartbreakingly disappointing trash. Anyone hoping for the latter, stop reading now. ‘Play’ opens as it means to go on, with the punk-lite guitar riff that opens ’31’ that then dissolves into a dreamily dramatic anthem […]

FlashFires – ‘Shy’ Review

10/02/2015 by Tom Roden

Proving that they are a lot more than just a one-off flash in the pan, and proving that they can produce more than one good track, ‘Shy’ is an indie powerhouse with a springy layers of guitars and vocals that are just as bouncy. If there’s one thing that FlashFires can always be praised for, it’s the vocalwork of Alex Gonzato. Aside from the fact that they are powerful and capable of producing some great harmonies, it’s very natural bouncy […]

Here’s the video, for your audio-visual pleasure. You can read our full review of the track here.

FlashFires – ‘Circus Boy’ Review

11/06/2014 by Tom Roden

If there’s anything that can save the whole indie/alternative scene from the swirly dirge of shoegazers stoning themselves into stereotypes, it’s FlashFires. ‘Circus Boy’ is brilliant in its combination of two indie/alternative stereotypes, creating something interestingly exciting in the process. We’ve all heard the jangly indie lead guitars before, and we’ve all heard the crunch of overdriven guitars as they storm their way through alt-rock tracks. But together they become something a little bit more interesting, especially when they’re combined […]
