THE FLAMING STARS are a garage band. That's garage as in loud guitars, valve amps, cheap electric organ and trashcan drums. They play live in the studio, live on the radio and live on stage. Formed in December 1994, they have regularly filled venues such as The Garage, and the LA2, and venues around the country, as well as playing sell-out tours around Europe and in Japan.

Always prolific, THE FALMING STARS recorded sessions for John Peel on Radio 1 and Sean Hughes on GLR, followed by the release of the double CD album of their 6 John Peel Sessions in 2000 and then in hot pursuit, album "A Walk On The Wired Side" and 7" "You Don't Always Want What You Get" in 2001. Favourites of multi-million selling Japanese band Thee Michelle Gun Elephant, THE FLAMING STARS are playing the London Underworld in June with tours of Scandinavia and the USA planned for this year as well. Phew!!!

Vinyl Japan now present this 7" double A sided single featuring highlight tracks from their last 2 studio albums, "A Walk On The Wired Side" and "Pathway" Their sound has a caustic sophistication, constantly fighting with the deep-down sleaze 'n' roll which has become their trademark, and heralds a new era in the STARS' career, that will keep fans trembling with anticipation with every spine-quivering twang. If you get a chance to see them, they come highly recommended live as well as on record. If not, turn the light down low, take a swig of Jack Daniels from the bottle, then site back, close your eyes and enjoy The Flaming stars.
