History & Biography
Flames is an Athens-based thrash band formed in 1984 by Chris Kirk. Chris' brother Andy was also a permanent fixture within the band. Made In Hell was recorded using a drum machine. An EP called Live In Slaughter House was issued in 1987 by FM Records. These Greek thrashers acquired a new singer in 1988.

The band was put on ice for a few years with Chris trekking back and forth between Greece and Germany. The band was reportedly rehearsing for a new album in 2002. It seemed to be setting Germany on fire. An album emerged in 2022. It was called Resurgence. The line-up was singer and guitarist Thomas Trampouras, guitarist Chris Lee, bassist Andy Kirk and drummer Nick "Yngve" Samios. The drummer was just a drum stool-for-hire. The band was booked for The Abyss Festival in Sweden in 2022. There was a gig in Greece in 2023. 2024 brought bookings at Golden R. Festival and Old Grave Fest. This was the band's 40th anniversary.
