Emotional Arsonist

In the last century I was privileged to support Bauhaus for several gigs in London (we had the same minder). It was obvious in those early days of Goth that something special was happening. The legacy of bands like Bauhaus is still important today and many new artists and bands circle around the rotting flesh of these 30 year old sounds, rip out a piece and make it theirs. Some totally miss the point and a small few really get it. The big question is….do Emotional Arsonist get it?…Well, YEP I think so!

‘Scar Twisted Metal’ is a 21st century folk song, haunting, simple but very clever and is, without a doubt, my favorite track. The rest of the bunch are all worthy of listening to over and over again and I’m looking forward too hearing more…

About peter

'Death by Sushi' Fish can kill me. When I was very small (maybe 3 or 4 years old) my grandfather, who lost the sight of one eye from a bullet fired by a German sniper (fortunately not a very good one) during the Battle of the Somme in World War 1, wiped my face with the corner of his apron, an apron he had used to wipe his filleting knife on. He was a grocery shopkeeper who specialized in wet fish.
