Cougar Microbes Top Albums of 2012: Kick Up The Fire – Money Men

Money-Men-Cover

Kick Up The Fire are one of those band’s that gets better with every listen. Having delighted us with their fiery 2010 self titled EP they returned in 2012 with an noticeable increase in focus and self determination.

Money Men‘ may seem as a little short clocking in at just over 12 minutes but the flipside is that each hook and melody feels absolutely essential to the South East London gang’s sound adopting a “all killer, no filler” mantra.

In October we wrote that “Kick Up The Fire succeeded in birthing their grittiest set of tracks to date while simultaneously releasing their most outwardly pop release“. This statement still rings true and ‘Money Men‘ demands repeat visits.
