Lee Bains III And The Glory Fires learned to construct music in the churches of their childhoods, then learned to destroy it in the punk clubs of their subsequent youths. With strong influences running the gamut from country and roots to punk and power pop, this distinctly Southern, soulful, inspired music is a force to be reckoned with. Pulled together by Bains as he returned to his home of Birmingham after a stint in Tuscaloosa institution the Dexateens, The Glory Fires match the passionate frontman with intense urgency and musical prowess. Their debut album (and titular single, featured here), was inspired by the mishearing of a line from an old hymn - as "There is a balm in Gilead," became a bomb, ready to blow up any minute. /// Featured song: "There is a Bomb in Gilead" /// The debut album, There is a Bomb in Gilead, is available now from Alive Naturalsound Records. /// Complete radio broadcast and playlist: http://b-t-r.co/THof5y /// Official website: http://thegloryfires.com/ /// Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/thegloryfires /// Twitter: @thegloryfires
