Dream Wife prove once again that they're one of the UK's most exciting new bands

15 August 2017, 17:09 | Written by Laurence Day

Rapidly rising punk threesome Dream Wife have announced new short-player Fire and lit the taper on the incendiary title track.

"Fire" is yet more evidence that backs up their status as a truly exciting outfit - they've got immense guts and even more hooks, fusing passion and pop panache into an addictive mixture.

"It's a song of explosive emotion; volcanic, eruptive, and reflective in turn," the trio explain to The FADER. "During moments of pure connection a bolt of fire can be felt between people. The explosion begins; movement is electric, conversation erratic and you become fully immersed in the moment. Thematically and tonally we explore the paradox present in the symbolism of 'fire' as both a creative and destructive force."

As well as "Fire", the EP includes March's track "Somebody" and remixes of the title track by Ellie Herring, FTSE, and biLLLy.

Dream Wife embark upon a UK tour in October, with a show at London's Scala - their biggest headline gig to date - among those confirmed. Find out more.

The Fire EP is released 29 September via Lucky Number.
