Claude says:Courrier's 2011 debut A Violent Flame arrived in your world for a brief, intense week in June 2012 — indie pop-rock with enough melodic muscle to stick around. You caught "Begging You Alive" and "How Long," songs that probably felt like they were written for those specific restless nights, then moved on, but the record's lean hooks and earnest urgency stayed somewhere in the back of your mind.
