Ball Of Flame Shoot Fire; Exclamation Marks Optional
People will tell you that, when writing, never use an exclamation mark if you want humour to be taken seriously. People are stupid.
Because if one band ever cried out for an exclamation mark, it’s Ball Of Flame Shoot Fire. Perhaps agonising over the punctuation of a band’s name is endlessly petty, or, frankly, autistic – or both – but there, I’ve said it: Ball Of Flame Shoot Fire! is just better.
But then if you’re a band that writes songs as frolicking and carefree as Patience, punctuation becomes moot.
Ball Of Flame Shoot Fire // Patience
It’s a truly strange song. Articulate and tangible in its weirdness, Patience rigidly rambles, deviates and tramples over its own vapour streams. Songs that are fully disarming and genuinely affecting are rare; this one, then, is both precious and shiny.
As such, grab the chance to hear a song that seems less fragile and more curious with every listen, and wonder why – as it sounds so easy, so effortless – everyone else isn’t doing it too. Excellent, strange, true.
