  Jesusfreakhideout.com: Day Of Fire, "Day Of Fire" Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
For anyone who has ever struggled with their faith, the album is encouraging and contains straight-forward messages, especially on songs like "Fade" and "I am the Door." "Rain Song" is a passionate cry for God to bring revival to his people, and is easily one of the best songs on the album.
Their album is well-produced and is reminiscent of the 90s grunge rock era.
Day of Fire’s self-titled album is a strong debut that is sure to perk some ears, but it remains to be seen whether or not the band has staying power.

 No Ripcord Album Review - The Arcade Fire — "Funeral"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Their new album, Funeral, is so fresh and exciting it’s hard to believe they are operating in an old and potentially stale form.
Not only are the songs uniformly excellent, they also show a mastery of the art of controlled dynamics, of tension and release, that most young bands ignore to pursue the catharsis of sustained intensity.
The album starts out on a high note with Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels), a tale of childhood escape and liberation which turns out to be a recurring motif on Funeral.

 * Dusted Reviews - The Arcade Fire *
Hailing from Montreal, the Arcade Fire’s Merge Records debut is impressive, but an excess of praise has been heaped upon the band by tastemakers looking to chew up and spit out the next underground icon.
She’s a fine musical match for her husband, however, and part of the Arcade Fire’s grace is in the contrasting yet complementary styles the two bring to the band.
The interplay with violinist Sarah Neufeld is also lovely; her playing is never ostentatious, and it heightens the emotional impact of the songs.

 The Arcade Fire: Funeral: Pitchfork Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
And so The Arcade Fire asks the question again, but with a crucial distinction: The pain of Win Butler and Régine Chassagne, the enigmatic husband-and-wife songwriting force behind the band, is not merely metaphorical, nor is it defeatist.
The lyrics superficially suggest a theme of middle-class alienation, but avoid literal allusion to a suburban wasteland-- one defining characteristic of the album, in fact, is the all-encompassing scope of its conceptual neighborhoods.
The urban clatter of Butler's adopted hometown of Montreal can be felt in the foreboding streetlights and shadows of "Une Annee Sans Lumiere", while Chassagne's evocative illustration of her homeland (on "Haiti", the country her parents fled in the 1960s) is both distantly exotic and starkly violent, perfectly evoking a nation in turmoil.

 Amazon.com: Music: Funeral   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The heart of the album is the quartet of the songs that share the title "Neighborhood." They take up four of the first five tracks on the album, and each one is utterly splendid in its own way.
The album hardly slows down after that quartet of songs is finished (and for the record, the 3rd cut, "Une Année Sans Lumière," is one of the stronger cuts on the album, and the one that immediately follows the final "Neighborhood" song, "Crown of Love," is another amazingly strong number.
If the album fades at all (and compared to most other recent rock albums, even good ones, it doesn't), it is near the end.

The words of King are sprinkled here and there throughout the album and for the listener it is a time to reflect and think about the legacy of this great man. For he had the courage to speak out in a time that racism was vagrant.
The album proved to be a shock to those fans who had come aboard during the Boy/October/War era as it was nothing at all like the band's first three albums.
It is this album that forever removed the possibility that U2 would be just another guitar band or protest band and paved the way for the landmark 1987 album, The Joshua Tree, which vaulted U2 to the pinnacle of the music world, a place they've inhabited ever since.

 The Music Box: The Strokes - Room on Fire (Album Review)
The NYC band’s second release Room on Fire doesn’t alter the formula one iota from its 2001 debut Is This It — which is pretty good news for fans.
Weighing in at a nimble 33 minutes, Room on Fire is a barrage of straight-up blazing rock reminiscent of a polished version of The Clash or The Ramones.
A hint of reggae creeps into tracks like Automatic Strap and Between Love and Hate, and on Meet Me in the Bathroom, the vocals and instruments show a bit too much reserve where more oomph should have been employed.

I got a lot of letters from people, especially after the album 'Stealing Fire,' and there were a lot of people in the Christian scene who found 'If I had a Rocket Launcher' very difficult.
"1984, when the 'Stealing Fire' album came out, was the beginning of anything happening in the United States for me. 'If I Had a Rocket Launcher' got a lot of radio play.
A lot of the songs on my current album (tentatively titled "Dart to the Heart") were written in hotel rooms and dressing rooms on the last tour so they're written on acoustic guitar because that's what I had at the time.

 CD Baby: NEILLY, O'CONNOR, CHOKAN, MEGA: G-FIRE - from musicdish
By Winthrop Bedford The concept of this diverse album is to assemble four terrific guitar players to demonstrate their creativity by performing in a stylistically diverse array of musical settings—including fusion and rock-based genres to smooth jazz and RandB ballads.
A little background is in order since the guitarists on this album are players who have chosen to work in the income-producing area of the music business—as session players in the studios (TV, film, recordings), and touring with big name pop icons.
This album is superbly produced, features highly professional sounding compositions and arrangements, and both musical and technically awe-inspiring guitar solos and chops, in the fusion and smooth jazz genres.

 Nevada - Pictures In The Fire Album Review   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The last album of rarities from Michael Dunford, Annie Haslam and others at the time of its release in early 1997 was thought to be the definitive collection of unreleased material.
Mike confirmed that Nevada "had a whole album recorded," but "the tapes were lost in a flood." He didn't elaborate further but a moment of silence followed as we all realised that a piece of the artists' history wouldn't be shared with their fans.
Listeners familiar with both will find those on the new album to be slower and perhaps closer to demo quality in the lushness of their production and dynamic range.

Fronted by the husband-and-wife team of Win Butler and Régine Chassagne, the group's emotional assault -- rendered even more poignant by the dedications to recently departed family members contained in the liner notes -- is brave, empowering, and dusted with something that many of that genre's angst-fueled acts desperately lack: an element of danger.

 The Arcade Fire Funeral Album Review - SoundsXP
Whilst the extreme emotional catharsis on display here, with piano, strings and guitar all adding bombastic backing, is frequently breathtaking any listener would be forgiven for feeling that this technique of needing to ram pain so far down their throat is, at times, excessive.
That said, the latter half of this album represents something truly sensational, with the epic violin-drenched beauty of Crown of Love and the emotive masterstroke of Rebellion (Lies) being seminal pieces of work.
So, while at times the Arcade Fire have chronicled their subjects with almost breathtaking lyrical and musical scope, this album is held back from true greatness by forsaking the subtlety which lets us, the listener, fill in the blanks with our own personal need for catharsis through music.

 Eyeball Kid - The Strokes - Room on Fire - Album Review
‘Room On Fire’ is The Strokes’ follow-up to their brilliant debut, ‘Is This It?’ and according to lead singer and songwriter Julian Casablancas it was born out of fear of failure and of releasing a song that sucks.
There are certainly no terrible songs on the album, and it’s by no means a failure, but neither is it especially good.
Where ‘Is This It?’ had a ferocious pace and songs like squatters that got into your head and stayed there, ‘Room On Fire’ is more an evening by the fire squatted where the only thing that’s infectious is yawning.

 "Trial By Fire" Album Review -- USPFC's On-Line Album Review: Trial By Fire
There are positive points and negative points to everything in life, and Journey's reunion album, "Trial By Fire," is no exception.
Track fourteen, "Trial By Fire," is a pretty good title track for this album; although, even though it's good, because of the ballads that precede it, it seems watered down by now.
The only thing going for it is that it has some jazzy guitar on the "Trial By Fire track," the beginning of the album rocks you into the mood, and it's a nice farewell to frontman, Steve Perry's, twenty-year Journey with the group.

 Mclusky The Difference Between You And Me Is That I’m Not On Fire Album Review - SoundsXP
Mclusky’s third album is an example of the new brutalism, a place where fierce bass lines and spiky guitar riffs batter you into submission while a softer moment allows you to reflect on the effectiveness of the beating.
When this album is tough it’s fearsome: ‘Slay!’ is a scary ride, leaping from noise to quiet to an ear-shredding explosion of guitars and chanting.
Mclusky quite possibly suffer by being too smart and playful to be accepted as hard rock and too heavy and in your face to be taken to the hearts of the pop kids.

 LAUNCH, Music on Yahoo! - Weezer - 'Maladroit'
Three albums in seven years hardly qualifies as a hectic work-rate but Weezer's 'quality over quantity' approach has done them no harm.
Even though the album's title might set the odd alarm bell ringing, it's not a major course for concern.
If the 'Green' album was a slap around the face as a reminder of how great this band can be, then 'Maladroit' shoves ice cubes down your pants and sets fire to your hair.

 System 7 - The Fire Album: Reviews, Track Listing, Audio Clips, and more ||| Music.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
To begin with, Hillage frankly deserves at least some credit just for his ability to openly embrace newer music without ever sounding like a dilettante, while most of his progressive peers from the '70s acted as if neither disco nor punk had ever happened, much less everything after that.
That said, the promising title Fire rarely gets you up and moving on your feet; for all the solid beats throughout, it's a politer dance album, more meditative than punchy -- one reason why history hasn't remembered it so well.
At its best, though, it's still good stuff: The collaborations with May, "Mysterious Traveller," and "Overview," are unsurprisingly the best on the album; while neither May's nor Hillage's stated mutual worship of George Clinton [+] is apparent, the beats and grooves are among the best here.
