“Eyes Like Fire” feels like cut-throat rock and roll in every which way. The hard-hitting and thumping piece from The Starkillers paints a picture that’s seductive, dark, and brooding all at once. With a heavy and pulsating guitar riff that’s undercut by lyrics that feel slightly obsessive and lustful, the song has you picturing that elusive girl that cuts through the crowd as you gaze into the darkness of a cluttered event in a club or under the night sky. With a thunderous and powerful arrangement that crashes down with such verve and passion, you can feel the relentlessness of every ounce in the arrangement here. At the final minute, a scintillating electric guitar solo also finds itself running through in the background, just adding to the overall fury of the piece.
Absolutely electrifying and wholly energising, “Eyes Like Fire” is alternative rock revitalised with fire and flames.
