Flood Of Red - A Place Before The EndFlood Of Red – A Place Before The End

For a 6-piece band who have toured with some major bands in the UK such as Madina Lake, Enter Shikari and a few others Flood Of Red have a very depressing sound that I just wasn’t expecting.

The bands new single ‘A Place Before The End’ is released on the 20th July, the lead vocals from Jordan Speirs are very dreamy sounding, reminding me very much of the vocals from Anthony Green from Circa Survive, the drum beats are quite toned down but very continuous, towards the later part of the song it changes from a real dreamy sound to a more upbeat stadium rock style song which must be great to experience live.

The b-side to the single is ‘Time Is All We Have Left’, the track is very experimental instrumentally with the dreamy sounding guitar riffs coming and going when you just don’t expect it, the drums are one again quite toned down and a little less constant, vocally Jordan Speirs shine’s again, seriously his dreamy vocals have enough power to lift the roof of the biggest of stadium’s which Flood Of Red will be selling out in years to come.

I really thought I wasn’t going to get on with Flood Of Red when I heard how mellow they are, but I actually think they are fantastic, they play with so much passion and Jordan Speirs vocals instantly get into your head and become hard to shake away just like the overall sound of the band.

4/5
