Description

What do you do if your band spends half a decade morphing from hungry Perth unknowns into indie darlings before, finally, it gets its name up in lights? Well if you're Birds Of Tokyo you burn it down and you start all over again.

Eventually you return with a new album called “March Fires” … a cohesive and ambitious work that reflects a combustible year. “We made a conscious choice to just put a match to everything we'd done before so that we could create something that felt fresh and exciting for us. Hopefully people who like the band will feel the same way when they hear it”, explains the group's guitarist, Adam Spark.

At the simplest level the album's title reflects the happy coincidence that the recording of these luminous songs commenced initially in March 2012 and the album will be released on March 1, 2013. More fundamentally it refers to a northern hemisphere phenomena in which forests typically burn off early in spring … a natural cycle of regeneration. The album title also hints more obliquely at deeper communal themes that run through this piece of work; a piece of work which undeniably reflects the year in which it was made.
