Description
BLOOD RED SHOESUK noise-pop duo return with new album! "Having left a sizeable mark on 2008 with the combustible guitar noise of Box of Secrets and a series of memorable gigs and incendiary festival appearances, the pair -- singer/guitarist Laura-Mary Carter and drummer/singer Steven Ansell -- are set to return in early 2010 with Fire Like This, an album that delivers on the scuzzed-up promise of it predecessor, Box of Secrets. ... Blood Red Shoes have taken the template of their heroes (that'll be the likes of Babes In Toyland, Drive Like Jehu and, of course, Seattle's most famous sons [Nirvana]) and added a voice, urgency and personality that it is unmistakably and undeniably theirs." --Spinner.com
"Recorded on analogue equipment with minimal overdubs – a nod, perhaps, to the working methods of Steve Albini, producer of Nirvana’s 1993 swansong In Utero, which Ansell has cited as a touchstone – this is a raw, unfussy rock record that forsakes gloss or studio tricks for instinct and urgency." --BBC
