House Fires: “Be Here”

“Be Here.” Now! That’s the full spiritual slogan, “Be here now.” What’s it mean? Who knows… But Boston’s House Fires noodle on the theme in the lead track on their recent self-titled EP. Shades of 90s altrock. Strong interplay between the vocal and guitar lines. The band knows when to lower the attack to a near whisper before whipping up towards a closing climax. The pop-fueled chord progressions are an easy like.
