Friday
Light For Fire – The Letters

It’s Friday. This “week off” turned into really only one and a half days off. Not sure why that is. I guess I’ve just been doing this too damn long now that when I hear a song, like this one, that really makes me feel something, I just have to say something about it. Besides, I can’t really pass up all that hype machine traffic, can I? And what of this band, whoever they may be—it took me three Google searches to finally bring up their website—being deprived of you, listening to this song, right now? And what of you, not getting to listen to this song right now? (And what of me, not getting to dump all this on you?)

How can I do that to so many people? I just can’t. Not this week anyway.

Over on their website you can download this song for free, as well as listen to a few others which also sound just as good. Not sure what the vocalist is sending his voice through but it sounds pretty rad, and seems to actually heighten the emotion of his music. The other three songs they have up are pretty rad too. They really have kind of an Arcade Fire texture to their music. I like it.

Will eagerly look forward to future releases from this band. I’ll keep you posted as best I can.

    This is Nick from Light For Fire. Thanks for posting our tune! The effect on my voice is a result of loads and loads of vocal takes being layered on top of one another. The album should be out later this month.

    Thanks again,
    LFF

    Nick,

    We're rotating this song and it's getting a lot of good feedback, not to mention we totally dig it. Looking forward to the rest of the album!
