About this episode

Ian hosts a long-overdue conversation with the band Light The Fire, discussing their evolution, songwriting, and experiences in the music scene.

After what felt like nearly a decade, Light The Fire finally joins me on Ian's Untitled Scene Show 🤘 Seth, Andrew, and Blake stop by for a long-overdue conversation that somehow manages to be equal parts Scene history lesson, therapy session, and fun hangout. We dive into the band's evolution from the early days through lineup changes, the unexpected way Seth ended up stepping into the frontman role, and how what could have been a disaster actually became the version of Light The Fire fans know today. We also get into ‘Death Won't Be The End Of Me’ (Parts 1 and 2), its long journey through pandemic delays, independent releases, recording with Beau Burchell of Saosin, and how the entire album slowly transformed into something much bigger than originally planned. We also talk about songwriting, blending melodic hardcore and metalcore influences, collaborating as a full unit, the emotional weight behind some of the material, and why some songs hit a little harder than others. Along the way, we get into old school Scene energy, touring stories, features with Mike from No Bragging Rights and Sean from Decayer, shots on stage, and maybe even expose some secrets the band had been…
