THE NIGHTMARES – FIRE IN HEAVEN – ALBUM REVIEW
It’s cold and miserable outside at the moment as the lingering British winter continues to literally cast a dark cloud over life. There is perhaps no better time then for Welsh soft rock quartet The Nightmares to drop their melancholic sophomore album, ‘Fire In Heaven’.
This is a moody, wistful collection of songs probably best listened to alone in your bedroom whilst staring longingly into the miserable darkness outside. That is said though in the best possible way!
With a continuing tide of new music that tries desperately to recreate that popular modern rock sound, it’s refreshing to be able to write about something unique and truly different. Undoubtedly, we can say that ‘Fire In Heaven’ is sure to be one of the most ethereal and layered records of the year.

Kicking off with ‘Siren Song’ the album shows an expanded guitar sound from the group before the delicious ‘Something In The Dark’ is driven forward by a gloomy bass riff and synth-laden whistle.
‘Hell Is Gonna Happen’ is a pop-tinged bop, ‘Run Away’ is a delightful standout track and the further you progress through the collection the bigger Cure vibes you get. Mixing rock and dream pop with a gothic aesthetic, The Nightmares truly feel like they are patenting their signature sound on this magnificent second album.
So, if you are looking for a release from the modern world and a record that you can get lost in whilst finding that solace then look no further than, ‘Fire In Heaven’.
