With rapid-fire drumming that's machine-gun fast and fantastic guitarwork, Eyes on Fire have cultivated tight heavy metal riffs with a nod to prog-rock that will keep your head banging from start to finish. These talented players can shred with the best of them, making for a thoroughly enjoyable effort. Starting off with the sound of a pretty old record melting away into aggressive guitar, "The Outcome is Murder" has a pounding beat that will knock your socks off. "Riddle" starts off slowly and builds into a furious crescendo, while "Hollow" is straight-up Slipnot-esque thrash.
Vocalist Sahar Montalvo alternates between singing and demonic screaming, which fits the music perfectly. The core of "Eyes on Fire" is more metal than prog, so there's no 8-minute guitar solos here - and that's fine by me. The biggest pitfall of progressive song structures is the tendency to drag, but Eyes on Fire know just how far they can develop their melodies before losing the listener's attention; and that takes some skill. If you're a fan of metal, don't miss this band. - Indie-music.com/Beeb Ashcroft

Bio
Welcome to your glimpse into the world of Eyes On Fire. We’d like thank you for paying enough attention to our band that you’ve become interested in what we have to say about ourselves. This is the part where we convince you that were awesome and show you our tough guy promo pic. It’s a good shot though, right?
So, we’re Eyes On Fire…we’re a metal band from Indianapolis. Our mission is to play music all year and meet cool people and make some money. We write heavy music with melodic hooks because we love to throw down but we like having girls at our shows too. People say we remind them of Bullet For My Valentine. I guess we can take that as complimentary, those dudes rip, but there’s elements of all styles of metal in our mix. None of us really like ALL of the same music, there’s a variety in the influence.
Since we started this back in 09 we’ve played a bunch of shows just about anywhere we could go in a weekend and be back for work on Monday and shared stages with some of our favorite bands, put out some killer tunes, dropped a video, made some awesome friends and it’s been amazing. It’s far from over though, the project evolves daily and new music continues to flow. Come catch an EOF live show and you’ll get why we do this.
