Second batch of listening (and not sure if I can go much further, for I will be away for a couple of days...):

Raff: A bit of nostalgia... Back in '83 (or maybe '84) when I went out to buy my first vinyl, in the record store I hesitated (and thus listened) between two albums. One was a Judas Priest album. I was quite influenced by a couple of friends who were very much into hard rock, so I heard a lot of all that throughout the 80s and early 90s. Regarding Judas Priest, I think it was a subsequent album I listened to in that record store... If I had chosen it, it probably (also) would have been to nag my parents a bit, but I finally walked out with 90125 (and the rest is history, as they say). Great to hear this again, and I prefer this one over Riot, but in the end The Cult is my prefered one. All three are probably a bit too straightforward for me nowadays, but not unpleasant.
Manuel de Falla, and now for something completely different. Very famous piece of music, but I wouldn't have been able to stick a name to it. I actually know this from one of Carlos Saura's dance films... Typical early 20th century piece to my ears - nice.

nick_h_nz: Five the Hierophant's Fire From Frozen Cloud starts of with a very beautiful introduction, a bit middle eastern tinged thanks to the alto-sax (?). Then the heavy guitar wall sets in to overtake this. The song alternates between these two and mixes them in an interesting way. I'm not fan of this djent-like guitar style (not at all), but this is an interesting kind of jazz metal - intriguing.

Lewian: Fireworks with Debussy and Stravinsky. Beforehand I would say I prefer Stravinsky... Upon listening I'd say... I prefer Stravinsky. Also because I prefer orchestral/symphonic works over solo instrumentals. But it is deceptively romantic for a Stravinsky piece (I guess it's an early work?). Funny that both have a quite similar structure, although Str. ends (of course) with a bang.

Cristi: Pro Musica, "baroque" rock? No, sounds rather straightforward, typical 70s rock to me. Nice, but not much more than that. Sfinx sound very prog-pop to me. Very interesting (late 70s/early 80s?). Some typical instrumentation and that sequenced synth makes it a dated sounding work, but very good to hear. With Semnal M we are in more hard rock/rock 'n roll territory; nothing very original, but it sounds great - solid playing and nice vocal harmonies. Ioan Gyuri Pascu sounds more like a pastiche on hard rock, a bit showing of, with quirky changes of rhythm and mixing of styles. Not much fan of his vocal explorations, but this is fun thing to discover. My choice would be Sfinx, though.

Hiram: Mana Mana, well, this sounds like some kind of Finish grunge? The solo guitar work is quite interesting, but for the rest this is not really my thing. A couple of months ago I saw an intersting documentary about ZZ top. They always remained for me the excentric top 40 band, but their solid hard edged blues rock is always good to hear. Regarding Meat Puppets, this does not convince me, neither regarding the playing nor - and especially - the singing. Scooter: they're in a hurry indeed, but this completely passes me by... I'll stick with ZZ top.

Nick: Mikko Joensuu  “House of Fire”  Begins with warbly keys and synthy bubbly sounds.  The tension builds as the general sound is repeated, lovely ambient piece, it is becoming clear by the first 3 minutes.  Sparkly notes start to alter the piece gradually (sparks?).  Ooooh, here come some guitars, or looped something similar on synths, not sure.  Little accent weeeegleeeees go spinning out and flashes of plucky keyboards (if that makes any sense, you’ll get used to my “technical terms,” when describing music, Nick, lol).  Vocals come in about halfway through, and yes, it does sound a bit like guitar underpinning the vocal, which is very lysergic and spooky at once. Some percussive elements are now added. Whirlies and tinklies close the offering, with a fadeout of what reminds me of bending a saw and hearing the whooshing noise that makes.  Very eerie piece for the most part, as you can probably guess, I also quite enjoy this one.   Yama Warashi “Set Fire to the Village”  Here we have some pops and thunks, then some keyboards and a female intones and singsongs her way about in the music, which is mostly electronic in feel.  Being so much shorter, there is less to say than the previous.  I liked some of the musical elements, not as much her particular kind of voice.  The Veils “Sit Down By The Fire”  Here is a more traditional sort of tune, singer has a clear voice and the sound is a bit Waterboys-ish (who I almost brought to this poll) to my ear.  Pil & Bue “Fire”  Wailing guitar and metallic percussion, then lots of sustained feedback, with some bass very quiet in the background.  Sounds as if it’s recorded in a warehouse.  Wailing female lead enters the scene and the sound scales back to percussion and that sustained feedback again.  More regular guitar builds the tension next, percussion remaining spot on and complex.  Two voices now intertwine, more emphatically, as the band plays on.  

Cristi:  Pro Musica  “Poarta de foc”  Drumbeats begin this one, with a hooky repetitive lead guitar lick.  Male vocalist .  Like the complexity here, the embellishments and the time changes.  I couldn’t find the lyrics in English, but really do enjoy what they are doing musically.  Sounds 70’s ish to me, an era of which I am fond.  The mix is a little odd, but may be live?  Ah yes, so the applause would indicate.  Cool track.  Sfinx “Focuri viii”  Keyboards to the fore here and some wailing-type guitar.  Soft male vocals with blipping keys continuing on in the front of the mix.  Symphonic, floaty feel, again, no English lyrics to help me along, but I’ll take your word for it that it’s fire related.  That bubbly keyboard continues with lead guitar in the center.    Semnal M “O roată de foc”  ZZ Top style guitar, then chorused vocals proceed with a very basic rock feel and structure. This sounds again like 70’s and no English lyrics can I find, but they were good at what they did.  Organ lead in the middle.    Ioan Gyrui Pascu “Tara arde si babele se piaptan”  Heavy guitars, drums and organ, then a wonkly little keyboard break.  Sort of a sarcastic sounding talky vocal, I like the guys voice when he sings, however.  The keyboards sometimes sound vaguely Middle Eastern.  I like your first one the best, here.  

Hiram:  Mana Mana “Totuus Palaa” Sustained guitar, then very heavy drums, makes me think very heavy psych.  Can’t tell what he’s singing about, but I’ll go with your translated title.  Could be song of the day, here in the US.  ZZ Top “Master of Sparks”  Now this I am very familiar with (a surprise fave band of my husband), and funny I mentioned them earlier.  This is typical ZZ Top fare, they are perfect at what they do.  Meat Puppets “Lake of Fire”  Fairly heavy here, also and a bit alt/punkish, perhaps.  Vocalist has a quavery voice, mostly in one tone, actually kinda reminds me of Ray Davies (who uses a bit more range).  Sometimes the guitar has elements of heavy psych.  Scooter “Fire”  Driving and thrashy high-energy, also toys with disco and rap.  Someone give these guys some speed!  😉 

Tancos:  Scriabin: "Flammes sombres"  Solo piano avant garde-ish piece (and I want that pianists’s dress.  I looked up the composer, who had synesthesia, apparently….so you are not far off with “psychedelia,” as a descriptive!  Ended a bit abruptly, but it was quite varied and not at all what I expected from your intro.  Another by Scribin, Vladimir Horowitz plays “Vers la flamme” Begins very quietly and ominously.  There are some frilly flourishes from time to time.  This is very haunting and beautiful so far (halfway).  The intensity v e r y gradually builds and flourishes become more frequent as the sound seems to suggest flames beginning to gain in size and strength.   A nice roaring end comes to pass.  Sister Irene O’ Connor “Fire”  Haunting voice, which becomes a bit elfin with dancing electronic keyboards.  Hard to describe this in any way but whimsical and with a feeling of elemental enchantment, perhaps these are little fire elves.  Which is pretty amusing, as it’s a Catholic nun, who might not approve of little fiery sprites. 

Logan:  Mandy More “If Not By Fire”  Here is a piece, much more in your face than the one we just left, offered up by Tancos.  Sort of a hippie-ish sounding singer/songwriter woman with a very angular, nasal  sort of quality to her voice.  Some electronics are going on here, the song is a bit of a march in feel, as well, the production is a bit muddy, but I think it’s intentional here.  The keyboards sound a bit like jaw harp through an effect.  Mandingo “Black Fire”  Quiet finger-pats on a drum and the sound of a guerro-like instrument, joined quickly by bass.  Flutes (or on keys, a flutes effect) come along, with a definitely African sort of sound and bird whistles join in with wah wah Shaft-style guitar.  I could see this being a tv show soundtrack from the time, perhaps a companion to “Daktari,” which I brought very early to these polls.  Horn section and gong from side to side in separation cuts into the song and an even more jungle-esque feel with wailing organ and lots and lots of percussion, plus horn section, a really groovy bit here.  They couldn’t resist using that gong one last time.  Franco Micalizzi “Fire in the Garage”  This is obviously a soundtrack, from the poster on the video.  Ominous, hope the place doesn’t blow!  The piece becomes a bit edgy and atonal, with flutes, soft percussion, and orchestra reaching a slow fever crescendo and a sudden end.  Harumi “Fire By The River”  Pretty shimmery organ opens this up, percussion joins quite quickly, then Japanes-y guitar, very western-sounding female vocalist.  This sounds much like studio production of the sort used with Tim Buckley’s “Goodbye and Hello,” era.  Farfisa and vibes intertwine with his (corrected, I misidentified it as, "her") light vocal.  Very early 70’s ish sound to it, which is certainly not a negative, to me.  This is the most fetching one you’ve brought this time. 

If we're talking burning boats, two come to mind --

CSN's  'Wooden Ships',  a sublime classic of the folk-rock era that may not necessarily be about ships on fire.   And of course '80s viking classic 'Now Your Ships Are Burned' from Yngwie's Rising Force album.
