Fruitz, an alternative rock band from Dublin, are kick-starting their 2024 releases with distinct new single ‘Man On Fire’. Carefully crafted at just over three minutes with refreshing indie rock, this new track has seen the band evolve. They dive deeper into the genre following their previous 2023 release ‘Visions Of You’.
Opening with an attention-grabbing drum fill that quickly morphs into a carrying beat, ‘Man On Fire’ radiates creativity and originality. Soft shoegaze-y inspired vocals
create an instant nostalgic indie feel to ‘Man On Fire’ with the groovy chorus giving way to a stronger, polished delivery from frontman James Keegan.
This single stays consistent throughout, including instrumentals that have rhythmic, rich guitar with hazy psychedelic tones. A fitting fade out closes the track, complimentary to the slow fade in and build up at the beginning adding an impressive cohesiveness.
Clearly a statement release from the duo, ‘Man On Fire’ captures a distinctly indie sound. Fans of ‘The Wombats’ and ‘The Sherlocks’ are bound to enjoy this fresh and charming track from Fruitz. I look forward to more captivating music and seeing where this vision takes them further through the year.
Listen to ‘Man On Fire’, out now!
