THE VIRGINMARYS – THE HOUSE BEYOND THE FIRES

Since breaking through with their debut album, ‘King of Conflict’ in 2013, The Virginmarys have spent a decade earning themselves a hardcore fanbase with stunning albums and intense live shows.

Even whilst transitioning from a trio to a duo, the band has proven themselves time and again and have shown themselves as artists that just do not miss. Every release to this point has been a bombastic rock n roll explosion and now they are back again with their latest album, ‘The House Beyond The Fires’.

So, is now the time that the band miss?

Spoiler alert – no!

Of course not, the string of tracks previewed either live or as a single had probably indicated that fans anyway, but to put it in black and white – this is The Virginmarys at their very best yet again.

There’s an impassioned ferocity that runs throughout these eleven songs as the duo provide a scathing commentary on the state of the world. There is a fire that burns in both the sonic onslaught and the frank lyricism on this commanding record. The fast pace makes for a blistering collection which needs to be played loud and ideally heard live!

All of the previously unheard tracks, ‘White Knuckle Riding’, ‘My Nettle’, ‘Dance To The City’ and ‘Urban Seagull’ are single quality and there genuinely isn’t a bad moment within any of the thirty-nine gloriously rambunctious minutes.

Their dedicated fanbase must feel like they are in on some powerful secret, because it’s truly unfathomable how this band isn’t absolutely massive!
