With three albums – ‘Rock Brigade’ (2016), ‘Fahrenhater’ (2018) and ‘9112’ (2020) – to their name, Fire Action are anything but newcomers and have long established themselves as an integral part of the Finnish metal scene. However, their international career will undoubtedly gain even more momentum with their upcoming album release ‘Until The Heat Dies’ and their contract with renowned German metal label, Steamhammer/SPV. There are a number of arguments that support this view, the most important one being that the quartet surrounding guitarist Juri Vuortama and vocalist Pete Ahonen has taken a real quantum leap in musical terms. Eleven traditional yet diverse metal songs, from the grooving opener ‘Storm Of Memories’ to the anthemic finale ‘Midnight Avenue’, emphasise the group’s impressive development on ‘Until The Heat Dies’, which Vuortama could hardly describe more aptly: “It’s riffs, riffs and riffs, with awesome melodies on top!”, he comments on the dozen or so new songs.
