Setting the tone with an immersive and cerebral energy, BEECH LOVE opens Fire & Smoke with introspective and metaphorical prose as he sings, “We don’t need scars just to know we’re human, we could let the world just tear us up, light ourselves up when we’re out of luck…”
We immediately connect with the experimental, bright and industrial nature of the alternative rock adjacent soundscape, as BEECH LOVE takes us on a thought-provoking journey both sonically and lyrically. We appreciate the philosophical themes that BEECH LOVE touches upon, his assertive energy and the charismatic depth with which he shares his perspective and vision.
Laced with poetic prowess, the opus expands into an anthem based around finding one’s own voice, painting a picture of creation and destruction in line with BEECH LOVE‘s own identity as a music artist, but also on a wider and more enigmatic scale.
Fire & Smoke comes with an evocative, cinematic music video created by BEECH LOVE, along with Annie Basler, featuring a mesmerizing performance from the rising star as he shares a flame with himself.
We learn that BEECH LOVE is a nineteen-year-old singer, songwriter, and producer from San Francisco, who cites bands such as The Killers, The Black Keys, and Thirty Seconds To Mars as inspirations, although it is clear that he is creating a universe of his own.
The emerging star intends intends to “shake up the modern alternative space and bring a fierce energy never seen before”, and his expansive music production allows him to bring to life his sound in the most authentic and empowering way possible.
We love the vocal design and the anthemic, electronica finale of the composition, and have added Fire & Smoke to our New Music Spotlight playlist, whilst we continue to stream BEECH LOVE‘s wider discography including Move On, and Rhythm of the Violence.
