International Dust

A widescreen, synth-powered anthem about class, inequality and access to creativity, Given Power is the latest single by eclectic London art-pop ensemble Firestations.

It’s the latest taste of the band’s fifth album, International Dust. The album marks a return to Firestations’ full five-piece format, after a journey into stripped-back alt-folk territory on last year’s Many White Horses.

It represents another significant step up for a consistently creative band who have reinvented themselves yet again, with an album that feels bigger and fuller on the surface than ever before, yet with deeper, even more thought-provoking foundations beneath.
