This interview was
done originally for Stay Heavy magazine in 2014 when I was lucky to get singer Paul
Mario Day and guitarists Martin Bushell and Jeff Summers to answer my
questions. A few (un)necessary words. I firstly heard Wildfire back in 2002
when I got my hands on re-issues of their albums “Brute Force and Ignorance”
and “Summer Lightning”. I was intrigued by a sticker “Featuring ex-Iron Maiden
singer”. Everything related to Maiden gave me goose bumps those days. Needless
to say I immediately fell in love with their music! What an amazing voice! What
incredible harmonies and guitar leads! So much passion in every song! Oh, man!
It’s a real shame that Wildfire remained obscure and never made it bigger while
they were active. So here is the story of how the fire was lit and burned out.
