Chain Of Flowers is a post-punk band hailing from Cardiff, United Kingdom. With their unique blend of atmospheric melodies and raw energy, they have captivated audiences worldwide. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Death Index, The Flex, and Merchandise, Chain Of Flowers has carved out their own distinct sound in the music industry.
Known for their intense live performances and thought-provoking lyrics, *Chain Of Flowers* has become a force to be reckoned with in the post-punk scene. Their music resonates with listeners on a deep emotional level, tackling themes of love, loss, and existentialism.
With an extensive discography that includes albums such as "Death Bells" and "Body of Light," *Chain Of Flowers* continues to push boundaries and explore new sonic territories. Their evocative soundscapes combined with powerful vocals create an immersive experience for fans.

Cardiff's Chain of Flowers return to Alter with their first new material since 2015's self-titled debut album. A double A sided single, Let Your Light In and Flesh, Blood and Bone are two tracks which see the band moving beyond the dense shoegaze sonics of their debut, bringing forward a more spacious and streamlined sound that emphasises the powerful urgency of their live performances. Despite 'Let Your Light In' offering a more optimistic tone to what fans of their debut may be used to, the charismatic guitar hooks, hazy vocals and fist-to-the-horizon anthemic qualities of the group are no less present. On this new found optimism, vocalist Josh explains: "Relationships of all kinds keep this world moving. We live in times of profound darkness, though I somehow find myself lucky enough to be surrounded by people that pour some light and inspiration back in to my life and this is not to be taken for granted. This song is an ode to love and companionship around the world, a gratuitous nod to the better aspects of the human race. A thank you for being you." Flesh, Blood and Bone on the other side appears to follow a darker and more pensive path at first with Josh singing at his most baritone and ominous. However when the chorus hits with its searing synthesiser melody, a switch is flipped. Musically it channels perfectly the bombastic new wave ambition of early Simple Minds, alongside the dramatic post-punk melancholy of the Chameleons. With this, Chain of Flowers are evidently making an effort to find a light within the darkness of the world and their own collective souls
