firestations UK
Humble musical servants. We do music and that – shoegazey alt-pop, harmony-driven psychedelia, and stripped-back acoustic
stuff too.

The Town That Cursed Your Name
by The Reds, Pinks & Purples
supported by 14 fans who also own “Hillcrest Static”
This isn’t a record review. Or maybe it is. But I fell asleep while listening to this album and had a wonderful dream: I was riding my bike through a fictional version of the city where I was born. You know what I mean- familiar, but strangely new? I rode through predawn darkness. The sun began to rise and made the city glow. Two buildings stood out, a liquor store and a pasta factory. I woke up in a happy mood and carried that feeling throughout the day.

Uncommon Weather
by The Reds, Pinks & Purples
supported by 12 fans who also own “Hillcrest Static”
The Reds, Pinks & Purples invoke a very particular moment of the post-C86/Sarah Records outpost of “college rock” before grunge became the de facto form of “alt rock”. This is pop music like they don’t really make it anymore: Catchy, gloomy, literate, jangly, artsy, occasionally frivolous… like some half-remembered video from the Dave Kendall-era of 120 Minutes.

there are other forms of strength
by Emily Magpie
Wildly prismatic music full of airy, vaporous instrumentation and vocals that drift along like a feather on the breeze.
