Flaming Fire is a metaphysical arts collective and rock band.

Other projects include live performance, film, comics and the Flaming Fire Illustrated Bible (described as the largest illustrated Bible in the world).

The band is currently on prominent avant rock label Silly Bird Records, home to bands like Autobody and the Irving Klaw Trio. Their projects and music have been featured in prominent news/music publications such as "The New York Times", "Arthur Magazine", "The New Yorker", "Vice Magazine", "The Boston Globe", "Venus Magazine", "The Omaha World Herald", "The Omaha Reader", The "Lincoln Journal Star", Blastitude, Dead Angel, Mick Mercer's The Mick and "Baltimore City Paper".

The group features cartoonist Lauren Weinstein on lead vocals with Patrick Hambrecht, the band songwriter. Their music is commonly described as a mix of psych folk, noise music and pop music, similar to other New Weird America artists, but with a more aggressive, transgressive bent, akin to bands like Psychic TV. The group's prior incarnation, Rock Rock Chicken Pox, featured Dame Darcy and members of Laddio Bolocko.

The band has three albums; "Get Old and Die with Flaming Fire," "Songs From the Shining Temple" and When The High Bell Rings. Their music has been featured on various compilations, including WFMU's "Tunes From the Toxic Terrain" and Psycho-O-Path Records' "Space is No Place, NYC: Noise from the Underground".
