Description
VINYL w/ DOWNLOAD CARD. Hailing from Birmingham,Alabama,LEE BAINS III & THE GLORY FIRES deconstruct the music of the Deep South,strip it down and reassemble it,to make a righteous ruckus that sits at the vanguard of the vernacular. The title of their debut album comes from Bains mishearing an old hymn as a child. In the soft accents of his elders,There is a balm in Gilead sounded a lot like There is a bomb.The band's combination of rock,punk,soul and country is typical of the sound that comes out of the Quad Cities,an area in North Alabama rich with musical talent going back to the 1960's.- DeadJournalist
