False London I “Flames”

​This week we have a crush on the debut single “Flames” from Sydney pop band False London. A fierce reflection of what is to come from the band, this track is a feel-good, thoughtfully constructed song from their forthcoming EP - to be expected later this year. 

False London were bound together through the necessity of lockdown, but soon turned into a passion project for the four-piece. Evident in their music, False London has been nurtured into an impressive exhibition of instrumental talent and careful crafting. With an entrance as grand and established as “Flames”, it’s hard to believe that the outfit are newcomers in the industry. 

“I wrote ‘Flames’ coming out of a situationship where it always felt the other person had one foot in and one foot out at all time,” says lead vocalist Brent Martin of False London. “We were caught in this dance where neither one of us wanted to be the one who cared the most and by the end of it we were both just exhausted. So the track is kind of the last stand, so to speak. It's putting all the cards on the table, for better or worse, and saying "Let's cut the bullshit. If we're going down, let's go down hard."
 
“I wrote the original demo in one sitting, just strumming on my guitar and the words came together organically - which isn't always that easy,” says vocalist Brent Martin. “When we got to the studio we polished it up a bit but it's largely the same song as the demo, which I think means I got it right the first time right?”

We can't wait to see what False London have in store for us next!
