The Solarflares are three quarters of the Prime Movers or half of the Prisoners depending on how you look at it. Fans of both bands will not be disappointed with the Flares. Drawing heavily on the garage sound of the 60's and the energy of 70's punk, the Flares raw but melodic brand of psychedelia is the perfect antidote to the current drab music scene. The Album: . The Solarflares' album puts to shame the imitators who've climbed the charts over the last decade. Power house garage, psychedelic Hendrix guitars, a dose of punk rock. The album is a blistering selection of songs, raw and as brutal as The Prisoner?s seminal and criminally overlooked The Last Fourfathers album and while the press release boasts ?Be prepared for the best garage record in years? its hard to disagree. The opening track ?Mary? delivers the perfect canvas of raw and driving power chords for Day to spread his melodies over. The lo-fi production works particularly well on ?Lifetime in one season? as the band start to rock. The psychedelic theme is maintained with ?You always find a way to hurt me? with its bitter-sweet chorus, but is a far more melancholic and reflective number. ?Brompton Lane? draws on Day?s time immediately after the Prisoner?s split, pondering his immediate future in his bed-sit. While the Solarflares have not been coy about wearing their variety of influences boldly on their arm, they have combined them to deliver an energetic and compelling debut. Do yourself a favour by buying this CD and catching the Solarflares live.You won't regret it. :o)
