Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10
Enlightenment comes in many forms, it can be deafening, it can be as silent as the ghost of a wind travelling up a river estuary, the only ripple that can be discerned is that as the breeze ruffles the ears of corn or disturbs the water; enlightenment may suggest itself at that point where even if you didn’t feel the gust then all around you certainly did.
Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *
Runcorn may be famous for one thing in particular but the bridge that crosses the Mersey and brings people from the south of the country into the heart of the cultural heartland of England also brings forth its own scene, its own art that fends off the thought of being completely absorbed and overwhelmed by its near neighbour. In The Fireflys, there is the talent to give the town its own home sprung heroes and in their latest album, Embers of The Autumn, there is a voice, a displacement of rich guitar and a beat that goads others into following them and sounds just utterly cool and insatiable.
