Flaming Fire joins with Ex Gratia Recordings for 2008 compilation and new album in 2009!


Flaming Fire's "Gun Through A Razor" has been included in the awesome new compilation "Specialisation is for Insects" from punk label, Ex Gratia Recordings, and is planning to release a full length vinyl album with the Ex Gratia folks next year in winter 2009/spring 2010, followed by our first visit to the U.K. (Guess we better get passports.) The compilation features other stellar bands Batrider, Ten City Nation, Doomed Bird of Providence, A-Line, Handsum Pete, Chenko, Rude Mechanicals, The Electric Brains, anarchistwood, and Distant Neighbor.

Ex Gratia Recordings is the brainchild of Emma and Paul Blackwood AKA Punkvert, and is styled on the philosophy of some of our favorite labels. They say: "Ex Gratia has been influenced by the predominantly punk record labels of the 70's such as Alternative Tentacles, SST, Crass Records etc. (though with a wider music policy) and sells its releases through gigs, the internet and a small selection of independent record shops across the UK. Newest project is the Specialisation is for Insects compilation going out 21st November 2008. We are a non-exclusive label. We are not part of the world of signing the souls of musicians or their work."
