New Review Up: The May Fire (@ Warehouse Live Tonight)

Yep, we’ve got a ton of new stuff up on the SCR site, w/more going up pretty quickly… Yours truly has been shamefully slow about getting reviews online, and I’m trying to rectify that with a small hoard of ultra-timely reviews.

Starting pretty much now, in fact. Why? Well, because tonight San Franciscans The May Fire are playing @ Warehouse Live, along with expat Houstonians Astra Heights (who previously got some good reviewage here), Monte Negro, & Johnny Goudie (again, reviewage here, albeit extremely old reviewage by this point). I’ve enjoyed what I’ve heard from Astra Heights in the past, myself — sorry we missed the boat when they still lived here, sadly — and while I did start off lukewarm on The May Fire, new EP The List is steadily growing on me like a riff-heavy, husky-voiced fungus. Okay, so maybe that doesn’t sound so good, I’ll admit it, but hey, you get the idea.

Anyway, check out the writeup of The List here, then roll on over to the Warehouse to check ’em out. The band ain’t perfect, no, but they’ve got a lot of potential, and from the sound of their recorded stuff, I’d bet they’re a blast live…
