Screens
“On Screens, Forest Fire boasts a new lineup and a new sound that exchanges homespun indie-folk for cascading synthesizers and prominent, jaunty bass lines. Gone is leader Mark Thresher’s Walkmen-like caterwauling; here he whispers his electro-fuzz vocals in a way that’s closer to Mark Linkous.”
Staring at the X
“When Forest Fire released their 2008 debut, the band seemed to exist somewhere just outside the hype machine. Three years later, the digital landscape feels more cluttered and complicated, but the Brooklyn indie rock quartet still has a rogue streak.”
