Blue Violet - Fire

A post shared by @weareblueviolet

So, I’ve been taking writing music reviews and consistently sharing new music releases with my audience this April. Since then every other month, I stumbled over Blue Violet, no wonder now that I know they’re releasing their sophomore album this January and have repeatedly made sure to release songs off it as singles to make us feel exciting about the album called Faux Animaux.

Fire was described by Blue Violet themselves as their spooky Halloween treat and if you watch the video, you’re gonna see Sarah McGrigor running around with a fire torch in-between shadows, fireworks and fields which matches with that message. I imagined it got played at someone’s Halloween house party this past weekend.

In their Instagram caption, they write: “Fire is a song that draws attention to one of our most basic instincts: desire. The two types of desire that fuel human beings are sexual desire and power…this song is about the relationship between the initial feeling of desire and the way it manifests once it’s acted on. We use fire to both build and destroy, we wanted to address the sinister nature of power and how it is obtained … the desire to seek more and more, to build and build, to take and take.”

Fire.
When I see it in your eyes.
I know what you have in mind.
Fire. Rise.
Like a tower in the sky.
Tell me isn’t power such a sweet thing.

I enjoy very much how the lyrics can have different meanings from whatever perspective you allow yourself to listen to them. Definitely recommend checking out their already-released singles this year that all will be featured in their album Faux Animaux release this coming January.

upcoming UK tour:

Newport, Gloucester, Birmingham, Birkenhead, Stockton-on-tees, Edinburgh, Glasgow, York, Grimsby, Nottingham, Boscombe, Exeter, Brighton, Leeds, Sheffield & Cambridge
