無名英雄, an album by Fire EX. on Spotify
October 19, 2020: Stand Up Like A Taiwanese by Fire EX.
Fire EX. is a really cool band! Not only do they make good music, they also supported the Sunflower Student Movement and even wrote a song for them, “Island’s Sunrise”, which became an unofficial anthem for the movement. You can read more about how that happened here and read more about the aftermath of the initial movement here. You can also read these two reviews of Stand Up Like A Taiwanese, both of which go into detail about the process behind the album and the political messaging within it, or you can just go straight to listening to the album itself. Enjoy!
