Earth, Strange Ranger has left you. Amorphous in their designs of alternative rock and experimental electronic departures of physical matter, the Philly four-piece are fully engulfed by their own desires to be of a sensation beyond what they’ve already created with “She’s On Fire”, the second single from their newly-announced album, Pure Music. Vocalist and guitarist Isaac Eiger, vocalist and synthesist Fiona Woodman, bassist Nathan Tucker, and drummer Fred Nixon form as one bond of electricity that burns to its hottest point, metaphorically doubling as the embodiment of a common perception we have in this lifetime: That enlightenment is a due given, eventually. The source of ignition is surely there, with its early chemical reaction – an arpeggio synthesis of cosmic energy feeding its way through human synapses and accordant post-punk guitars – converges to create one galaxy brain realization upon reaching climax. Though, it’s not what it seemed. “I would have thought the rhythm of the club might lead me somewhere,” Eiger and Woodman’s breaths press their way together. It’s a new level, but only one that begets the knowledge that there will always been another one to come.
