From the musical union of Mike and Diane Isbister comes the volcanic new single, “Fire” – the latest, Junetime release from Canadian husband-wife rock band D2UR. Soaked in undeniable warmth, daggered with magnificent beats and enlivened by soft imprints of jazz fusion, this is a song you can send down the sun to before dancing the night away; where lo-fi bliss meets the powerhouse spirit of psychedelia in all its experimental glory.
With glassy guitars steeped in amberous sunset tones, red hot, searing solos breathing fresh life into the embers of ‘80s rock, and a saxophone trailing radiant melodies through the piece, “Fire” is simply enlivening, packed with authentic drive and fierce, bold beauty ready to end your night on the right note.
D2UR have called this single “one of the band’s most adventurous and emotive tracks to date,” and we’re totally picking up on that vibe. Rare, genre-crossing elements flicker like stunning blue licks through the burning flames of rock, the single refusing to settle wholly in any one genre but weaving the best loose threads from each musical sphere into a new and unique force.

It certainly is a “bold step forward in the band’s evolution,” as D2UR share, with a lyrical message to match: “Fire” is all about “reaching for the stars,” sparking the flames of ambition within yourself and chasing your highest aspirations to completion, no matter the odds stacked against you. And the end result is completely epic: a song ready to soundtrack your summer with its powerhouse atmosphere and phoenix-like lyrical inspirations. Our verdict: Recommended.
