Autumn Fires charge forward with “Gone By June,” a punchy pop-punk anthem taken from their EP ‘BLOOM.,’ which is out now via Marshall Records. The Milton Keynes and North London quintet continue building momentum after winning Kerrang! Radio’s ‘The Deal’ competition and landing a coveted slot at Download Festival.
“Gone By June” moves with bright guitars, driving drums, and a chorus built for packed club floors. The track channels the melodic urgency of modern pop-punk while leaning into the high-energy spirit that shaped the band’s early influences. The song lands with infectious hooks and emotional bite.
“For ‘Gone By June’, we wanted to write a song that got every fan up on their feet jumping and moving,” the group explains. “The vision in our head was our fans crowd-surfing and moshing.” The recording also features a playful studio moment with bassist Neil Dowd delivering the opening voice clip.
Autumn Fires formed during the pandemic after vocalist Charlotte Haimes and guitarist Callum Skea began building a new project together. Guitarist Luca Testa, bassist Neil Dowd, and drummer Daryl Humphries soon joined, forming a lineup shaped by shared roots in alternative music and live performance.
Produced by Grammy and Mercury Prize nominated producer Romesh Dodangoda, ‘BLOOM.’ captures the band’s bright melodic instincts and energetic songwriting. “Gone By June” stands as a bold statement from a group bringing fresh momentum to modern pop-punk.
