It was a beautiful day in Newcastle, the sun was shining on the Riverside, and Fyreon were tearing the place up! As the lead singer Debi pointed out, it's probably the first time Fyreon have played in the daylight and it felt quite strange. Anyway, they had a good turnout for 4 in the afteroon, Fyreon seem to have a cult following of loyal fans.
Fyreon's sound is addictive. Their angry songs are full of genius riffs and amazing drum beats. The exceptional, raw vocals of the frontwoman are terrifyingly brilliant. Watching them interact on stage you can see a band who obviously love what they're doing and have a damn good time doing it.
All of the elements of Fyreon work so well together, it just wouldn't be the same without one of them. Their heavy riffs and infectious bass lines will get stuck in your head.
The crowd chanted the lyrics back to every song, and danced and headbanged along. It's impossible to not headbang at a Fyreon gig. They played an old favourite ' Be Your Name' and had the crowd eating out of their hands.
Fyreon really put on an excellent show. It was certainly a memorable gig for me, and part of a really cool event. They were technically brilliant and played a pretty much flawless set. As a group of musicians they are so talented, and damned entertaining! Get yourself along to a gig, they will blow you away.
Fyreon are playing at Trocaderos, South Shields on the 11th March, don't miss it!
