Texas seems to be a hot zone for producing some great-sounding rock bands. Fire From The Gods hails from Austin, Texas, and recently dropped its sophomore album, "American Sun."
The band has been touring non-stop over the past three years since the release of its debut "Narrative." "American Sun" lyrically hits on society as a whole hiding behind social media to push agendas and not relating in person to the world around us. The album has some bounce driven by its rhythms. The riffs are solid and each song's chorus stands out.
There is some diversity on the album too, featuring some hiphop-style rhythms and even some reggae infusion on the song "They Don't Like It" featuring Sonny from P.O.D.
Fire From The Gods deliver an album that will hook you in and is easy to listen to. There's no sophomore slump with "American Sun."
