Lake Over Fire

Lake Over Fire is a Maine-based hyper chaotic queer post-punk quartet weaving sneaky doomsday disco tunes for lovers, fighters, psychiatry patients, weirdos, and absurdists. Drawing their name and inspiration from the 49th hexagram of the I Ching which symbolizes alchemical change, the group is hard at work exploring the sublimation of pain and rage into ecstasy and liberation. Through screeching guitars, asymmetrical drums, and mesmeric basslines erupt glittering melodies and hauntingly playful vocal acrobatics. The group's live set presents a bombastic, super-unleaded-plus, smooth roller coaster ride creating and cutting the tension with deft and sadistic control. The group has performed with such renowned acts as TheWorst, Gymshorts, Leggy, Bait Bag, Carissa Johnson and Tetchy. Described as "pulpy and garish while rocking absolutely hard" by Robb Donker Curtius of American Pancake, as well as "like The Cramps on bath salts" by a satisfied fan outside of a recent concert, the band finds it a great honor to welcome all sorts into their catharsis.
