With their latest release, The Flesh proves themselves as a force to be reckoned with, putting a dark, moody spin on glam. From start to finish, Firetower offers a train of steady, stylish music that roars and keeps on track. Songs like "The Truant" and the album's title track sound like songs that could be playing in a smoke-filled noir nightclub in an unknown town. There's a mystery to The Flesh that is hard to describe: like they're building to a sinister twist ending that never shows up.
