Still Obsessed with Songs About Fire


After hearing the Charlotte Hatherley was leaving Ash to focus on her solo career, I was a bit worried about the path the rest of the band would take. Would they revert back to their pre-1997 punk-metal ways? Who would sing and play back-up on "A Life Less Ordinary" when they perform it live? Whose breasts could I stare at the rest of the time?

Fortunately, Ash proved they could still handle the melodies like champs. The trio have just released an infectious pop piece entitled "I Started a Fire" with a full-length album expected later this year. I have a feeling it's going to be nothing short of The Shit (in the good sense).
