Intro

One of the forgotten bands of its time. The Fireworks Factory were formed from the ashes of Ambition in Glass, who in 1982 release a 12" single on Rough Trade Records, tracks included When Allison When & And It Rains, produced by Colin Richardson (The Chameleons). 

The Firework's had a broad range of influences from The Cure, The Cult, The Sisters, The Mission to Echo and The Bunnymen who many would say sounded alike.

The band enjoyed much Radio Airplay in Ireland on Capital Radio and RTE's Dave Fanning show. 

In 1986 The band recorded a Three track Demo entitled "Under Glass" which was produced by Paul Thomas (Engineer on U2's Boy Album) and Jacknife Lee (who now produces REM, U2, The Killers). 

In 1987 the band nearly signed to EMI Records based on "Some Strange Days" but after some re recordings of songs with EMI in London, nothing was released and no deal was signed, the band split up in early 1988 and left some wonderful music behind them but where back Alive 'N Kicking.
