Any Miracle – Sweet Fire
2 min read
Any Miracle, the darkwave trio hailing from the greater Mainz area in Germany, emerges in 2022 as torchbearers of Gothic culture and post-punk. Their track “Sweet Fire” pays homage to the 1990s goth scene, blending its atmospheric essence with a surprising twist of groovy drum beats, creating an almost dance-like orchestration. “Sweet Fire” invites listeners into a sonic world dripping with nostalgia for the heyday of gothic rock. The band adeptly captures the moody, dark ambiance that defined the 1990s goth scene. The brooding guitar work and haunting synth lines conjure up visions of dimly lit clubs and swaying crowds dressed in black. One intriguing aspect of the track is its incorporation of groovy drum beats in the background. This unexpected addition infuses an element of movement and danceability into the otherwise somber atmosphere. It’s an interesting juxtaposition that sets “Sweet Fire” apart from typical goth rock tracks and might attract a broader audience. However, “Sweet Fire” falls somewhat short in terms of vocal production. While clean vocals can work well in the gothic rock genre, there’s room for additional effects or a touch of reverb to enhance the overall mysterious atmosphere. This, of course, is a matter of personal preference, and some listeners may appreciate the clarity and directness of the vocals. “Sweet Fire” by Any Miracle offers a glimpse into the revival of gothic rock, drawing inspiration from the 1990s goth scene. The track successfully captures the dark, atmospheric essence of the genre and adds a unique layer of grooviness through its drum beats. Overall, “Sweet Fire” is a promising piece that demonstrates Any Miracle’s commitment to keeping the gothic flame alive and evolving.
