MODERN HEARTS

Vinyl LP version. San Francisco trio, The Trophy Fire return with a brand new album, Modern Hearts. Recorded in Fremont and Oakland during breaks between two national tours with Dredg, the album is broadly dynamic and fluid, as the band continues their tradition of powerful-up tempo guitar and synth driven songs alongside much more delicate and intimate tracks. While repeatedly criss crossing America, singer Ben Flanagan finished writing the lyrics for the album; lyrics that speak deeply, poignantly and emotively about the pressures, absurdity and beauty of the zeitgeist of our modern state and the challenges and the hopes of living in modern culture. The Trophy Fire are poised to head back out on the road all over again throughout fall into spring and summer 2012.
