Recorded in Toronto, the songs were originally released as a self-titled EP (2004/Down Peninsula Audio) that included the plodding and punchy “Lift Off Message” and five other gritty blasts of Afghan Whigs-meets-the Replacements-meets-My Bloody Valentine-influenced noise. In 2006, The Holy Fire joined The Militia Group roster, with future plans to add a full-length to their catalogue of recordings-- which now consists of two rousing EP’s. The Holy Fire’s latest, and overwhelmingly unopposed EP In the Name of the World will be nationally released on February 21st via The Militia Group. In the Name of the World was produced by Flaming Lips bassist Michael Ivins. The Holy Fire have recently toured with The Constantines, and have also played with fellow enigmatic indie rockers Mclusky and TV On The Radio.
