Quest For Fire w/ guests Quest For Fire w/ guestsUpon the inevitable demise of Canada’s most beloved garage rock underdogs, The Deadly Snakes, of which Andrew and Chad were core members, Quest For Fire began to prepare for their great unveiling before Toronto’s unwary rock scene. Mike, however, was knee deep in the production of the gargantuan third full length from his band Cursed, of which he’d been a member of since its inception in 2001. They started things off slowly if not loudly. On a hot August night in 2007 the band made their first appearance at ‘the Boat’, one of Toronto’s most cherished dive bars located in Kensington Market. Escorted to and from the show in a friends suped-up 1960’s black hearse, Quest For Fire had simply stated that, like old man Death himself, they were not taking any prisoners. From that point on word spread like, well, wild fire. They quickly became the city's most sought-after and mysterious new bands. Show offers came flooding in to open for high profile acts such as Black Mountain, Ladyhawk, Eric’s Trip, Attack In Black, and Pride Tiger at their Halloween hell-raiser at the Horseshoe Tavern. Their thunderous sonic blitzkrieg was a little much for the Montreal Police Department to handle, however, resulting in their debut at the Pop Festival getting shut down, fortunately not before having already delivered a jaw-dropping and mind altering performance.
