...FireHouse ROCKS...this album is great..these guys are one of the early 90's best rock bands...Party On Dudes!!!

A respectable record, given the sub-par efforts of their last few CD's. But the awful rap tune has got to go! Better than "3," "Good Acoustics" and "Category 5," but still nowhere close to the first two CD's.

I agree it's better than "Category 5", which didn't rock much at all (and had lame production). It's definitely not as good as "3", which kicked serious ass! The first two are still the standard, but "3" is a quality CD.

Pretty spare effort by Firehouse: only "Don't Fade on Me" bears the melodic trademarks of albums past. This band needs to listen to their first 2 albums again.

By no stretch of the imagination is this a back-to-signature-sound record by FireHouse. What the hell is wrong with these guys? They release two fantastic albums (their self-titled debut and 'Hold Your Fire') and ever since then have been releasing--for the most part--a load of horse shit! And koogles, while I may not always agree with your opinions (particularly on 'Eyes'), I couldn't agree more with you on your view on FireHouse. As for the "rap-tune"--I agree with Don. That has got to a gag.

FireHouse has to come out with something a hell of a lot better than this for me to regain faith in the band. The first two albums were great, why the hell can't any of their other material measure up? The creativity is not here and obviously the motivation to make a great album seems to have been gone for the last ten years. Leverty is a fantastic guitarist (one of my favorites) and C.J.'s voice is instantly recognisable, etc., etc.--but when the hell will FH make a good cd again, if ever!!?!?

I like this one, I think is better than cat. n.5. They are come back to do what they do better, hard rock. I like songs like Unbelieveble(my fav is so funny)and Call of the night(this one rocks), The Dark is a strange rap metal tune but I like the lyric.

T.P.-- Regarding the production on O2...... Whether you and I liked the album or not, aside, you would have to agree that the production on this one sucks. Where's Keith Olsen or Tom Werman when you need them?

Maybe you are right Dokken6008. But, you know, I was so glad they come back to hard rock, after 2 cd pop rock oriented, that I don't care that much about the production. After listening War to end all wars from Malmsteen, all the others cds seem to have a top producer to me, ahahahahahha.
|
From: dokken6008 |
Date: June 20, 2002 at 2:48 |
Good point--I heard about Malmsteen's latest and the production was said to have sucked big time. Maybe I should buy that cd and everything will sound crystal-clear top-noth to me, too. Have a nice day--SEE YOU ROUND, T.P...

I think it's pretty decent. There are a couple really good songs on it. Not their best effort ( in comparison to the 1st & 2nd albums ), but not too bad. It is a little bit of a diffrent sound than the old Firehouse, but you can still tell it is them ( although I do like the old stuff slightly better )But with all the alternaCRAP that came out the last few years, this is refreshing for 2000. In my opinion, it's worth checking out, not a bad album at all.

This is a pretty solid album. They put some more hard rock elements in that their previous albums were missing. Why isn't the 3rd track "The Dark" listed above? I know its nobody's favorite, but it still needs to be listed.

A solid album if you take a good listen to it. my no means back to the first three cd standard but still a solid 7.5. Don't believe the rating on this, some one person rated this thing to give it a terrible rating. A 1.15 it does not deserve.

After a couple of softer albums and despite the sometimes varied style of the album, the majority of it does the job of recapturing the long time fans wishes of a classic rocking Firehouse record, while a few tracks try something new. With this album the band should keep everyone happy and maintain their strong fan base.

Doesn't go quite as far as bringing the RAWK all the way back, but comes damn close in spots. Despite that, the songwriting is still top notch and Leverty can hang with the best of them on the guitar.

From: METAL FAN 1 |

"Don't Fade On Me" is the best song on here. The best Leverty guitar solo on this album is in this song. The whole album is a fantastic effort!!!!!!!!!!!

Sad news, everyone! I just learned the other day that Bruce Waibel, our beloved bass player on this album, has passed away on September 2,2003. I'd like to dedicate the song "Jumpin'" to the memory of Bruce, as this song is what the music is really all about!! I haven't found out how he died, but when I do; I will share the information with you all. Bruce, your fans miss you. R.I.P. brother!!!

Firehouse has finally gotten back to it's roots (sort of) with their new release Prime Time. The title track is addicting with it's catchy chorus and, most importantly, it rocks. Another plus is that there is only one ballad on the cd, which is subpar at best. Leverty actually sings on three of the songs. They rock, but with the change in vocals, it loses the Firehouse feel. All that being said, the new cd is a real nice step in the right direction.

Actually Perry was fired. Apparently there was some bad blood between him and Bill Leverty.

Do these guys ever release a bad album? Not yet. The sound here is a bit darker and the production is a bit fuzzy, but as usual the songwriting steals he show. Firehouse does delve into a new age sound with The Dark, which is terrible, so hopefully that is out of their system. Highlights here include I'd Rather Be Makin' Love, and the last 3 tracks, Unbelievable, Loving You Is Paradise and Call Of The Night, which may have the best hook they ever wrote. 7.5/10

Sorry Kip, going to have to disagree again. Whilst I love Firehouse, I think this album is horrible! 'Call of the night' is a killer hard rock track, but IMO the rest is a tragedy. Have there ever been worse lyrics than 'Jumpin' or 'In the dark', or, to be honest, the majority of this album? Firehouse were never lyrical geniuses, but never this bad. Awesome band, awful release. I really dislike this album. Bad hard rock.

I don't understand how someone who is a fan of all, or at least most of their previous ballads couldn't be a fan of the 2 ballads here - Unbelievable and Lovin You Is Paradise. To me, they fit right in with their older stuff. And if you're wondering why I like I'd Rather Be Makin' Love... It's the LYRICS!! Dude, that song is me to a T. Great party/date song and it brings back some great memories of me and my ex in a parked car... I'll stop there...

This album doesn't start for me until track 5! The first four tracks are a waste of time! But i must admit, the rest of the album is pretty darn good! Sure, not as good as their first 3 albums, but still very solid! Call Of The Night is a fantastic closer! One of their better tunes of their career so far! I'm In Love This Time, What You Can Do and Unbelievable are all good hard rock songs, and Loving You Is Paradise isn't a too bad ballad! 7.5/10.....

From: John |
Date: October 9, 2004 at 9:53 |
Aussie, I agree that it's a 'hard' listen, but don't discount 'Take It Off' without listening at high volumes. I think this record gets slagged unfairly. It's not the S/T record, but it's not nearly as bad as everyone says. Solid 7.5/10.

This is better than a couple of their previous efforts, but it still doesn't compare to the first two releases. They have a few more rocking tunes here. I'd like to see them come full circle back to where they started. I haven't heard the latest release (Prime Time) but I hope it's a step up for them.

LISTEN TO ME FOR ONES IN YOUR LIFE. This is a very very good album. I think this must be their best since their classic first two albums. Songs like DONīT FADE ON ME or the very heavy metal(yes, melodic metal) CALL OF THE NIGHT are ultra cool. Very good songs and riffs and with great melodies like always. One of my fave FIREHOUSE album. A real must have release for any melodic hard rock fan that still love the late 80s beginning of the 90s.

TEMAS CON RIFFS HARDROCKEROS PERO CUYOS COROS NO ACABAN DE DESPEGAR ("JUMPIN", "TAKE IT OFF"), MELODIAS FORZADAS. ENCONTRAMOS BUENAS CANCIONES: "UNBELIEVABLE", "CALL OF THE NIGHT"(DE LA MANUFACTURA DEL MEJOR FIREHOUSE), EL CACHONDEA DE "IīD RATHER BE MAKIN LOVE", Y OTRA HERMOSA BALADA "LOVIN YOU IS PARADISE", UN TRABAJO LLENO DE ALTIBAJOS... AH, EVITENSE LA MOLESTIA DE ESCUCHAR "THE DARK", ESPANTOSA!

When the band released this perfectly-acceptable-but-nothing-special album, it was finally time to accept the lamentable fact that the hard rocking inferno of greatness Firehouse had proven themselves to be on their first two CDs was now little more than a dying ember. There is still some evidence on this release that the band could really rock the house if they so chose, but for the most part this is pretty uninspired stuff. Nothing terrible, mind you, but the kind of bland hard rock that makes you go "oh no" instead of "oh yeah!"

This is softer than their first two releases and is similar to Firehouse 3 in its style. It's a good album. I like Unbelievable the best I think.
