JohnHMar 14, 20108Not a massive departure from their first album but just sounds better in every way. It's never going to be groundbreaking but it's a supremely listenable and enjoyable 37-odd minutes. The closer 'Colours Fade' is one of my favourite tracks from 2010 so far.

Sep 14, 20117There's definitely an improve in this second album: Laura-Mary's guitar sounds more clear and neat and Steven keeps on beating that drums hard enough to transmit all his anger. The songs, in my opinion are more aggressive, but still they will be in your mind all day long.

Mar 3, 201180Blood Red Shoes still rocks out on most tracks, all riled up and restless, keeping the rhythms chunky and choppy on standouts like the defiantly-played and shouted "Light It Up," the revved-up guitar and drums of "Don't Ask," and the guitar jags and slamming drums on "Keeping It Close."

Dec 14, 201074In its best moments, Fire Like This strikes a balance between heartfelt and heavy. Blood Red Shoes may be squat-hall sized, but they are arena-equipped.
