My Introduction to Christian Rock	Customer Rating:
Cut and Move is the first song I heard from these guys and it was just a clipit on my phone but my intense curiosity was piqued. There are two songs on here that have the same effect on me as Desperate by Decyfer Down. The first is the Rain Song and the second is Cornerstone. Great, great songs. Very powerful songs. My kids are starting to sing along to Rain Song. It's very neat.

awesome	Customer Rating:
This CD was a surprise, and is now one of my favorites! I bought it for the long "Fade Away" and enjoy the whole thing.

Awesome Band	Customer Rating:
Day of Fire Rocks my Socks off! Through their music, they help me to cling to what is true and right and make it through daily life. My shipment from Amazon came fast and in excellent order. I highly recommend this album to anyone who loves good old fashioned Rock and Roll!

Fantastic cd.	Customer Rating:
This is an awesome cd, the music is very inspiring. My favorite song is "Cornerstone" it is a great song. I have seen them live, also, they are great.

Weak at points, but solid Christian rock overall.

Customer Rating:

I went into Day Of Fire's eponymous debut album not really knowing what to expect. I was never a fan of Josh Brown's previous band, Full Devil Jacket; heck, I never actually heard any of their music. All I do know is that the "rock star lifestyle," if you will, that Brown was living while fronting FDJ was ruining his life according to his testimony. The drugs, the alcohol, the promiscuous sex, you name it. After a while this lifestyle caught up to him, and he eventually left FDJ altogether to follow Jesus Christ. Like I said, I have never heard a Full Devil Jacket song, but judging by the faith-inspired lyrics heard in Day Of Fire's music I'd be willing to bet they were more on the negative side. Anyway, onto the actual review of the album. It starts off strong with "Through The Fire," one of the best songs the release has to offer. However, directly after that comes "Detainer," one of the album's three weakest tracks. Matter of fact, the first half of the album follows this "strong song/weak song" pattern, in my opinion. The excellent "Cornerstone" (the first DOF song I heard courtesy of a good friend) is proceeded by the repetitive and not very inspired "Time." Sorry, but the chorus of "do you have the time, do you have the time..." doesn't do much for yours truly. "Fade Away" comes next and once again picks the album up on a positive note, but this doesn't last long as it is followed by "I Am The Door," which although it has a great message has too much of an 80s/arena rock vibe to it, as some other reviewers have mentioned. With the exception of the rather pointless instrumental track "Adrianné" (named after Brown's wife), the second half of this album is better and more consistent. "Rain Song" is my personal favorite of the bunch, and "Jacob's Dream" is equally compelling. "Reap And Sow" is a bit short for my tastes, clocking in at just over two and a half minutes, but it rocks all the way through. The album closes with "To Fly," which although has an intro that sounds eerily similar to that of "I Am The Door" is an overall better song lyrically and musically. So not counting the instrumental, we have ten fairly good, melodic yet gritty rock and roll tracks with Christian themes here, only three of which I don't particularly care for. Not a perfect album but certainly above average, so four stars it is. This album came out in 2004, and I have not yet listened to their 2006 sophomore release "Cut And Move" but I will definitely be picking it up soon. According to the band's MySpace page a third album is in the works but they are currently without a label, so they are looking to fan contributions for support.
