5.0 out of 5 stars Refreshing and moving..., August 27, 2008

It's not often that an album comes out that makes you feel good about things in general. The Tire Fire's new release does just that for me. It's a rare combination of piano driven rock, shredding guitars, and harmonizing vocals that just combine for the perfect sound. "If it makes you feel good, it's alright!" to steal a line from these guys. Thanks for the originality...it's refreshing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Just A Good Rock Band . . ., June 17, 2010

By 

Randy "Randy" (Florida) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Places We Lived (Audio CD)

THE PLACES WE LIVED is a very good album by a band that is quickly becoming one of my favorites. This record has a little something for everyone: some jamband style folk-rock("The Places We Lived"), balls-out Southern Rock("How The Hell Did You Get Back Here?"), Petty-Springsteenish Heartland Rock("Welcome To The Factory") and sentimental love songs("Time With You"). The songs are good, the band is tight, Ed Anderson's voice is big, friendly and pleasant. This is a very nice album; check it out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Back Yard Tire Fire Succeeds at Rocking, May 26, 2009

With catchy guitar riffs, even catchier choruses, and great harmonies in each song, Back Yard Tire Fire delivers an album that simply rocks. They don't try to over-complicate anything, but instead stick to the roots of rock music, utilizing guitars, bass, and drums. However, Ed Anderson will also turn to the piano to give the listener a taste of a more solemn and emotional rock group. Not only will you want to sing along right away, but you will want to be a part of the band. Frankly, these guys make great music if you are in the mood to rock.
