BACKYARD TIRE FIRE

"Instead of being just another collection of guitar driven, middle of the road rock music full of stolen riffs from some of the worst excesses of the 1970's, these guys know how to write and arrange songs and understand what melody means."
- Richard Marcus - BlogCritics.org
"The bluesy piano romps are just as good as the rock anthems -- lovelorn with yearning nostalgia but coupled with straight-up Southern-fried noise -- Highly recommended."
- Can You See The Sunset
"Take everything you love about Patterson Hood’s emotional grit, The Old 97s classic barnburner footstompers, and the spirit Whiskeytown had when Ryan still had something to prove, and you’ve already got a good sense of what the band is about: It’s Midwestern Americana at it’s slice-of-hard-life best."
- Berkeley Place
"Backyard Tire Fire's exposed new sounds and ideas and shaped a record that is completely different from anything we've heard from them before...they've grown more than should be possible a few short months since they were offering up a collection of acoustic ditties."
- Hero Hill
"Note to the World, if your tired of the same refurbished, drivel that continually makes the air waves, this is your door way to walk through the mundane and into the vividness of raw but polished Americana. There are ordinary story tellers who write lyrics and then their are master narrators, who make you believe what they are saying like you were there with them when they wrote the song."
