I think it
is fair to say that all of us here at Hercules Moments are big fans of local
music, so hearing word of new releases from some of our favourite home grown bands
is always good news. The release of a new single from former local boys Forest
Fires is no exception.
So without
further ado I introduce you to Avalanche,
the new single from Forest Fires, and notably their first to break free from
the world of Bandcamp and Soundcloud into the big leagues of iTunes and
Spotify.
Thankfully Avalanche is a track more than up to the
task of showing off Forest Fires to music fans the world over, taking all the
energy and feeling of the live Forest Fires experience and condensing it down
into 2:46 of relentless high energy rock full of the sort of hooks to lodge it
firmly in your head for the foreseeable future. It’s a step up in volume
compared to some of the previous tracks they have made available, yet still
keeping some of the interplay between the two guitars that drew us in before. I
may even go as far as to say that Avalanche
manages to pull off one of the hardest parts of recording, in that it manages to
convey the feel of the band in their element live via a ‘sterile’ recording
studio.
Avalanche
by Forest Fires is out now, available on iTunes.
