If you’ve been sleeping on Atlanta’s rising rock monsters The Fire We Breathe, it’s time to wake up—and maybe brace yourself a little. The band just dropped a music video for their latest single, “Playing With Fire,” and yeah, the title isn’t just for show. This thing burns.
From the first note, “Playing With Fire” hits with the kind of energy that feels both gritty and grounded—like a bar fight with heart. The track has crunchy guitar riffs, groove-heavy basslines, and drums that don’t ask for permission. It’s loud, it’s tight, and it’s got soul.
The band, which formed in 2023, comprises four seasoned players. Lead vocalist and guitarist Alan Williams brings the kind of vocal power that sounds equally at home over an arena PA or a dive bar stage. Guitarist Eric Anderson shreds with precision while locking in harmonies, and bassist Trey Pittman lays down thick, punchy rhythms alongside drummer William Shaw, who hits like he’s mad at the kit—in the best possible way.
According to the band, “Playing With Fire” isn’t just about pushing the tempo or turning up the amps—it’s about the connection between bandmates and the decision to let go of whatever’s behind you. It’s a song about living now, burning bright, and not looking back.
The video itself leans into that energy hard. It’s raw, showing the band doing what they do best—throwing down with zero pretension and maximum conviction. It’s the kind of visual that makes you want to see them live, sweat flying, crowd shouting, amps cranked.
Whether you're a die-hard rock fan or just into music that makes your pulse jump, The Fire We Breathe has something to say—and they’re saying it loud.
