Set Fire to Flames is a post rock band consisting of fourteen musicians from Montreal , Canada who have released two albums on Alien8 Recordings and FatCat Records .
Both albums were recorded "in states of little or no sleep, in varying states of intoxication and in physical limitation." Their second album was recorded in a cabin in rural Ontario . The tones of the creaking doors and other background noises were not cut out - as usual - but deliberately kept.
Guitarist Mike Moya (also with Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Hrsta ) on the way the band works:
Many of their tracks are very minimalistic, filled with ambient and noise elements and many other non-musical sound effects , united or combined with instrumental music.
The band is often featured as a side project of Godspeed You! Black Emperor and the two musical ensembles share different members.
Since the last album in 2003 there has been calm around Set Fire to Flames . The band has given only one spontaneous live concert in their entire history (1999).
