About Me

Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor - Hot Comments - Image Hosting

BABYLON FIRE WAS FORMED IN MANCHESTER IN 2007 BY BASS PLAYER RYK SWILLO, LEAD GUITARISTS RISHI MEHTA & WILL REECE, DRUMMER MARK COOPER & LEAD VOCALIST MARK D. THEY IMMEDIATELY SET ABOUT WRITING & RECORDING ORIGINAL MATERIAL & DEVELOPING THE BLUEPRINT FOR WHAT WOULD BECOME THE BABYLON FIRE SOUND.
THE PLAN WAS SIMPLE, WRITE SONGS THAT WERE DYNAMIC, POWERFUL & HEAVY BUT THAT ALSO HAD A DEFINITE EMPHASIS ON MELODY. RATHER THAN BE PART OF ANY PARTICULAR TREND OR SCENE THEY CHOSE TO DRAW INSPIRATION FROM THEIR MANY INFLUENCES YET STILL MAINTAIN A STRONG IDENTITY OF THEIR OWN.
WITH A PASSION, DRIVE & UNBRIDLED DETERMINATION TO TAKE ON THE WORLD'S STAGE, THE BAND TOOK TO THE ROAD IN MARCH 2008 WHERE THEY INTEND TO STAY, HONING THEIR STAGECRAFT & PICKING UP DEDICATED FOLLOWERS ALONG THE WAY.
THE RECEPTION THE BAND HAS RECEIVED FROM AUDIENCES SO FAR HAS BEEN OVERWHELMING & THROUGH SHEER HARD WORK, RELENTLESS TOURING & WORLD CLASS SONGWRITING THEY INTEND TO ESTABLISH BABYLON FIRE ON THE SCENE AMONGST THE VERY BEST THAT BRITAIN HAS TO OFFER.

OUR COMPLETE FOCUS IS ON WRITING GREAT SONGS WITH AN EMPHASIS ON LIGHT & SHADE & WHILST OUR INFLUENCES CAN BE HEARD IN OUR MUSIC WE SOUND LIKE NO ONE BAND IN PARTICULAR BUT RATHER A FUSION OF EVERYTHING WE LOVE ABOUT ROCK & METAL MUSIC.
