Brightlight City Interview

 

Brightlight City are the only band I have ever come across who sound similar to so many other bands, while having their own sound. I find it just incredible.


The start of 'Reaction' could slot into Fall Out Boys Folie A Deux album. 'The Finish Line', with a few changes could be a You Me At Six single. There's hints of Biffy Clyro and Jimmy Eat The World's sound. I just find this band mesmerizing. Instinctively I knew I just had to talk to them, to discover their influences and who they see themselves like.





Here's what happened when I caught up with Brightlight City, where a shared love for Biffy Clyro and the quest for world domination ensue.

Interivew With SIRACUSE

SIRACUSE. A play on the name of one of Sicily's most beautiful cities, providing the sound of the British adolescence. 

 

Originally the sound of the 1990's, but seems to be flourishing as more and more people seem to be reminiscing, or listening to their parents music. Bands such as Oasis and The Verve are made legend once more, by the children of those who saw them live.

 

Although many new bands try, few can create the hallowed 'indie alternative' sound. However SIRACUSE have not only managed it, they've amalgamated it and made it all their own. 

 

SIRACUSE are more than a band, lost in the sound of the 1990's, their on track to become something incredible.

Firestate Interview.

Soundcloud tricked me with this band. Open as a background app, Soundcloud threw me a curve-ball, 'World Burn' by Firestate. I genuinely thought this was a new song from Lower Than Atlantis or We Are The Ocean. It wasn't until the final few seconds of the song, where I wanted to find the name of the song, did I realise it was in fact Firestate.
