House of Artifacts – Fire On The Mountain

Limited edition of 500 hand-numbered 7″ vinyl records pressed at Gotta Groove in Ohio. House of Artifacts make their debut with the song “Fire on the Mountain,” specially mixed in two parts (digitally it’s one continuous piece) for this 7″ single release! Exploring themes of dissatisfaction and the unrealistic pursuit of perfection, “Fire on the Mountain” attempts to make sense of the fantasies people tell themselves through lush instrumentation and a song structure that changes as abruptly as ones own life often does. The first parts urgent acoustic guitar and driving backbeat creates a sense of anxiety. This differs from the second parts more melancholic and reflective tone – shaped by softer vocals, glockenspiel, and Mellotron flutes.
