The Flaming Tsunamis were the youthful leaders of a local ska-punk revival that rose when the corpse of the regional ska scene was hardly cold. But in just a few short years, they’ve grown, and so has their initial audience and their sound, so that they’ve become something altogether heavier, darker, artier. Abstracted farther and farther from their original template, the Tsunamis’ skankin’ breaks surprise when they do show up, embedded as they are in progressive hardcore and metalcore mayhem. The fruits of their labor, of creative restlessness and years of heavy touring, are evident in their most recent full-length, last year’s punishing, politicized, dynamically schizoid Fear Everything (Kill Normal Records), and in their live show, in which they’re a freaky machine of energy and precision.
Went to a ska fest in Denver that had the Aquabats, Voodoo Glow Skulls, Mustard Plug and more. I saw more Flaming Tsunamis t-shirts than t-shirts for any other ska band. Including the Aquabats... crazy, I know. Nice to see you guys getting some recognition. Denver loves you.
