Worcester-based punk-rock quartet, FIGHTS AND FIRES, have released their new album, ‘Live Life Like A Tourist’ through Lockjaw Records today. The new record is available on 12inch vinyl, CD and digital, through all usual online platforms.
“It feels great to have the new record out now.” says drummer Lee Jackson.“We had such a good time making it and we just hope that people like the new tunes. We took a bit of time to do this one, but we’re all way happier in life now, so hopefully, that emanates through the music and we can transfer those good vibes.”
Speaking on the new record, Lesley-Anne O’Brien of Lockjaw Records said “Are albums supposed to be this much fun? With ‘Live Life Like A Tourist’, it’s not going to be hard to get everyone living life to the full – head banging, singing along, and infected with the FAF brand of hardcore.”
The new album features 8 tracks of melodic hardcore-infused punk-rock, inspired by the members of the band finding happiness in their personal lives, rekindling a love for life and a passion for their music. As such, an underlying message of positivity runs throughout all 8 tracks on the record, underpinned by one simple message – “You’re not on your own.”
