Trances, doppelgängers, impending doom, surveillance, romantic longing. The third and final album from Hobart 5-piece All Fires the Fire, Songs of the Silent Age, has its roots in the brief halcyon days of German cinema, which began shortly after the end of WWI, ended with the coming of sound, and was preoccupied with evil, the terrors of war, greed, alienation and the rise of totalitarianism.
The album features the shambolic sparkling madness and pop of Postcard-era Glasgow bands, the crooning moodiness of Bowie’s Berlin records, while speaking about bloodlust, the crumbling of a familiar world and the emergence of something horrible and unhomely.
All Fires the Fire is:
Adam Ouston – vocals, synthesisers, guitar
Peter Ferguson – bass, guitar
Nina Bok – vocals, synthesisers
Adam-Carl D’Andrea – drums
Chris Wessing – guitar
Release: March 30th, 2018, Independent
Words: AFTF
