LOVELIKEFIRE

Rumbling with an aggressive grandeur, San Francisco’s LoveLikeFire have an affinity with the epic. Cathartic indie rock – think Silversun Pickups meets The Killers – the songs rise and fall with all the drama of a Golden Globe winning HBO series. Frontwoman Ann Yu pulls together the chaos with a Karen O panache. Skyscraping guitars, booming keyboards and bedevilled lyrics drenched in rejection and alienation, there’s a dark calm-before-the-storm foreboding to LoveLikeFire.
