Friendly Fires

Indie rock
Indie rockPunk rock

Friendly Fires is a Indie rock and Punk rock act. Their sound grew out of Au Revoir Simone, Simian Mobile Disco, Black Kids, Azari & III and Tiga. Those roots explain a lot about how Friendly Fires arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Does It Offend You, Yeah?, Miami Horror, Miike Snow, The Rapture and The Futureheads, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into The Phenomenal Handclap Band, Azari & III, White Lies, Glasvegas and The Soft Pack, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 31 connections around Friendly Fires, reaching back through Au Revoir Simone and forward to The Phenomenal Handclap Band.
