Fire Records

Fire Records is an independent record label headquartered in London, England, UK. Founded in the mid 80s, Fire Records has been a prominent force in the music industry for decades. They have released early records from Pulp, Teenage Fanclub, Spacemen 3, Blue Aeroplanes, and many other influential artists. In the early 90s, the label was home to notable acts such as Neutral Milk Hotel, The Lemonheads, Built to Spill, and Urge Overkill.With a rich history of discovering talent and nurturing their careers, Fire Records remains dedicated to supporting groundbreaking musicians across various genres. Their diverse roster showcases both established names and emerging talents who push boundaries and challenge conventions.

Hater was an American rock supergroup that formed in Seattle, Washington in 1993. The band emerged as a side project led by Soundgarden bassist Ben Shepherd. Other members included Soundgarden drummer Matt Cameron, guitarist John McBain (formerly of Monster Magnet and later part of Wellwater Conspiracy with Cameron and Shepherd), bassist John Waterman for the self-titled album, Devilhead vocalist Brian Wood, brother of Mother Love Bone vocalist Andrew Wood, and Alan Davis on bass for The 2nd.

Hater's music is characterized by their unique blend of rock influences, delivering powerful performances that captivate audiences. With their self-titled album and subsequent releases, they showcased their exceptional talent and creative prowess.

If you enjoy the sounds of artists such as Vero, Lightning In A Twilight Hour, Night Palace, or Tallies, then Hater's music will surely resonate with you. Their captivating melodies and emotive lyrics make them a must-listen for fans of alternative rock.

Effortless and assured, the Scandi quartet drift eloquently into well-structured and stunning melodies. 

Resolute in their sound, Siesta is the perfect soundtrack for that summer romance and the inevitable break up. Heartbreak has never sounded so sweet!. Produced by Joakim Lindberg (Yast and Hey Elbow) at Studio Sickan within old railway sheds outside of Malmö Sweden. Hater tackle their personal experiences of life, love and relationships yet through their shared songwriting there's a togetherness. Synth pop earworm It’s So Easy contrasts the slower paced I Wish I Gave You More Time Because I Love You that blends beautiful sweeping sax from Inge Petersson Lindback. Hater boast Marr-esque guitars and vocals reminiscent of fellow Swedes and The Concretes whilst having the pop sensibilities of The Chills, Alvvays, Snail Mail and Makthaverskan.

Could you tell us a little about how the band came together?

We formed two and a half years ago, we knew each other from playing in a different band before. When that band broke up we had a rehearsal space and we wanted to play pop + it turned out Caroline is a great singer - it kind of clicked from day one with that set up.

And you're all from Malmö - what's the music scene like there and has it helped shaped your sound?

Caroline Adam and me (Lukas) are from Lund but we’ve been living I Malmö for a couple of years now, Måns is from Malmö. The vibe in Malmö is very nice and easy going, it’s encouraging to start playing music here.

Could you tell us a little bit about writing the album and who your influences were?

We wrote this album over a longer period of time than with You Tried, everyone came with song ideas and we let the ideas evolve together. We all have different influences and we’re very open to that and everyone’s different ideas.

How are you enjoying your tour of Europe? Is there anywhere you've particularly loved/are really looking forward to playing in?

We’re starting the tour this Tuesday (23th of October). We love touring even though this is only our second headline tour. There’s a lot of great memories from different places, every stop has it’s charm and vibe. My parents are flying to Paris to watch us play, that’s going to be fun.

What can we expect next from the band?

We’re playing live quite a bit but after that I think we’re all very keen to write new songs! Maybe a quick single, an EP or even an album.
