The 2018 single "I Invented Fire" finds Meteor Airlines in a moment of defiant self-assertion. This was a standalone single released between their second and third albums.
- "I Invented Fire" was recorded at Starstruck Studios with producer Alan Moulder. The single was the band's first release on the independent label Meteor Records. It reached number 42 on the UK Indie Chart.
- The single was a departure from the band's earlier, more melodic sound, incorporating heavier guitar riffs and a more aggressive vocal style. It was a one-off collaboration with electronic artist DJ Shadow, who provided a beat for the track.
- The track was noted for its controversial lyrics, which some critics deemed to be overly nationalistic. The band defended the song, stating it was a commentary on the UK's political climate at the time.
