Vancouver BC’s Flowers & Fire play sleek, powerful and brooding goth-tinged post-punk with nods to the Chameleons/Death Cult.

Silk varnish sleeve, two tracks remastered from their demo
Please note: only a few copies of this will be available until I can reach the band, who vanished after I paid for test pressings, so don’t ask for wholesale (those few I had already promised copies to will get theirs)
