|

full transcripts of reviews are available from us, by request.

| PIVOTAL RAGE | www |
"Fireland’s sound isn’t far removed from some of the early 80’s British metal A.K.A. The New Wave Of British Heavy Metal, but with current production values, the songs are rock solid with bigger hooks and melodies." -
Ruben Mosqueda
|
| THOUGHTS OF METAL | www |
"...a first album filled with qualitative Heavy Metal that should get them far, because there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that this is one of the bands that can give Heavy Metal (the pure kind) the boost to be as present (again) as all those Death and Black Metal bands nowadays." -
Tim Vervaeke
|
| BELFAST METALHEADS REUNITED | www |
"Fireland have created that rare beast – a metal album that stands aside heavy metal classics, but has a fresh Northern Ireland inspired twist." -
Jonathan Traynor
|
| METAL.DE | www |
"Es werden immer wieder gekonnte Melodiebögen ausgepackt und das Riffing klingt sehr harmonisch. Die Gitarren führen die Hooklines, die in gelungene Refrains münden.
Andrew Baxters Stimme hat einen angenehmen melodischen Klang, der die gesanglichen Höhepunkte gut ausreizt." -
Steve

| LIVE4METAL | www |
"The genre of heavy metal encompasses many bands, and I found it difficult to name one whom I would directly compare with Fireland, in fact I found my search taking me further into the realms of classic rock, and still feel that the band have managed a unique sound, whilst displaying many influences." -
Steve
|
| VAMPSTER.COM | www |
"FIRELAND geben mit ihrem Debüt jedenfalls eine sehr gute Visitenkarte ab, klingen durch und durch professionell und überzeugen mit starken Arrangements und schlüssigen Songaufbauten." -
Ulle
|
| METAL EXPRESS | www |
"...the music will appeal to a broad audience, as it is timeless and well done, sailing roughly in the wake of bands like Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Thin Lizzy.

|

|
| BACON MUSIC | www |
"... already dubbed the New Wave Of Irish Heavy Metal in some quarters, the foot tappin,’ Guiness raising metal that Fireland create buzzes with ultra heavy ferocity and melodious vocal hooks... A classic debut E.P, From The Ashes promises much not only for Fireland’s future recordings, but rock and heavy metal in general." -
James Allman
Rating: 5/5
|
| METAL RULES | www |
"... gibt es auch hier eine unglaublich geile Gitarrenarbeit zu bewundern. Mehr Feeling geht nicht ! Diese EP macht wieder einmal deutlich was für klasse Bands ein fast unbeachtetes Dasein fristen, während die 98. durchschnittliche italienische Power-Metal Band einen Plattendeal bekommt. Hier bekommt man zwanzig Minuten melodischen Heavy Metal geboten, der jeden einzelnen Cent wert ist." -
Holger
|
| WEST SIDE DAVE | www |
"... a blistering 4 track affair that gives a nod to the old school glory daze of Maiden and Dio as well as the more current Euro Metal mavens. Crunching riffs, galloping rhythms and soaring melodies are the order of the day here... The only bad thing I can say about the album is there are only 4 songs!" -
Dave
Rating: Thumbs waaaaayy up!
|
| METAL OBSERVER | www |
"... a nice mix of straight up old school Heavy Metal in the vein of MAIDEN and PRIEST yet with a delicious modern tinge mostly caused by the beefy rhythm production and thrash, like ICED EARTH and METALLICA, leanings... In fact almost everything about this sounds very professional, from the very clear production and the obvious talent in the musicianship to the CD packaging and print quality." -
Niall
Rating: 7/10

| METAL IRELAND | www |
"Twin guitar heavy metal, nothing more and nothing less is what is on offer here... this is invigorating music for a beer fuelled night of metal mayhem on the tiles, and doubtless they will impress many a gig goer." -
Ciaran Tracey
|
| ROCK AND A HARD PLACE | www |
"The songs are epic in nature and dark, without being depressing. There's more story-telling than pissing and moaning. Overall, the four songs are a great start for the band and considering this is just a demo for the band you have to take notice of things to come for Fireland." -
|
| THE TEMPLE OF METAL | www |
"Barely I receive some work from Ireland. But today was my lucky day because I received a promo package from this country. When I put this EP into my cd player I didn't expected to hear such good music as the music coming from it! For sure i believe that the band will have future because they know who to work and for sure soon we will hear some good news from them. All the fans of heavy metal should buy this EP, it worth all the money that you will spent for it." -
Antonis Maglaras
|
| SCREAM MAGAZINE | www |
"Der geile Einstieg mit dem Kracher COMPUTERISED GODS zeigt schon den Weg auf, der sich durch alle vier Songs windet: hervorragender melodischer Metal mit starken, richtig fetten Riffs und packenden Leads
(Translation: The brilliant opener COMPUTERISED GODS shows the way winding through all four songs: high-class melodic Heavy Metal with strong and fat riffs and gripping leads)" -
Bernhard
Rating: 5.5/6

| MELODIC HARD ROCK TODAY | www |
"Fireland is one of the bands who are taking very good care of the classic metal genre on a way I like with a very natural sound... Fireland sounds tight in every direction, but what I like especially good about the band is the twin guitarplaying by Steve and Marc." -
Arne Asbolmo
|
| METAL IRELAND | www |
"...the band are ready to start the gigging run again with a new energy. Much of that energy comes, as ever, from singer Tommy Daly... No stranger to the rest of the lineup, he is also no stranger to quality vocal: he always did have a definitive note of both The Cult and Danzig in his throat, and today it was aired with great aplomb... Fireland have invested in good gear and are reaping the rewards, with the guitars in particular literally caressing the ears with sweet hard rock vintage greatness. Their tightness helped this immensely, and instrumentally the band were absolutely impeccable." -

| BACON MUSIC | www |
"The set, compromising of all the numbers from their From The Ashes E.P (plus previously unheard numbers The Redeemer and Leave You Standing), is simply scorching – think Maiden, Metallica and Dio, couple it with the occasional commercial appeal of Van Halen or early Bon Jovi and you’re halfway there - all adding to a sound that is passionately and authentically Fireland’s own. Buzzing with plenty of live energy and stage presence..." -
James Allman

"Suffice to say that those who managed to arrive half-way through the set had fists pumping and horns in the air." -
