Six friends from Southern NH / Northern MA that get together to make music. Occasionally, in front of people.
Some of them used to be The Nicaea Room (Rifkin, Hiort, Garrett). One of them used to be in My Little Radio (Twohig). Add some new guys from Skylight Escape and Ready Messenger (O'Brien, Couture, respectively), a penchant for catchy melodies, and some aggressive guitars, and you get Highfire Skyline.
"...great originality, while maintaining a familiar catchy sound that had the entire audience bobbing their head and shaking their hips.... Every song was gripping.... if they’re playing near you, and you’re into This Providence, The Audition, or The Receiving end of Sirens, check this epic pop punk sextet out, they’re a good time for sure."
- Nick Grieco / PlaygroundBoston.com
"Hailing from a land where hardcore and nu-metal seem to prevail, Highfire Skyline seems like an anomalous gem in a pool of watered down, tired licks. Highfire Skyline is an onslaught of high energy rock, with angular pop hooks and a soaring vocal floating high above the chaos, oblivious to the bar line, yet tightly woven into the fabric of the music. The harmonies are lush and unconventional and the band sounds like a blazing firestorm of guitar texture and wizardry. If you only listen to one CD all year, you really need to get out more. This band is truly amazing. Check it!"
- Joel Simches / The Noise/Boston
"Storming out of New England and ready to take the music world by the proverbial reins, Highfire Skyline is powerful, yet not overpowering—no easy feat to accomplish! Chugging along with ill riffs and emotionally-charged lyrics, they manage to strategically ride the thin musical line between bands like Hot Water Music and Thursday. Flourishes of punk and hardcore shine through yet make way for a much more melodic sound, rife with clever hooks and stellar harmonies! Check out “My Low Plateau,” and see why this band is about to explode on the scene!"
