  Fire Down Under

  • Don't Have It? Get It!
  • Simply one of the greatest albums of the 80s; a true hidden treasure of sorts, and one of my all time favorite bands. Anyone I turned this album onto loved it. Also, on a bit of an odd note, Riot...

  • Good, but no masterpiece
  • "Fire down under" from 1981 is often regarded as Riot's finest. I'm sorry to say, but I don't quite agree, I think both "Rock city" (1977) and "Restless breed" (1982) are slightly better. But that...

  • Riot - Fire Down Under
  • Two out of five stars for the music ONLY! My vinyl transfer sounds better than the CD version. The mix seems to feature a lead hi-hat. Very little low end. A spectrun analysis revealed how bably...

  • this should be a 5 star, not a 4 (people, check your ears)
  • i have been a rocker/metal head for over 30 years, and a drummer for 25, so i think i know a little about what is good or not (in my opinion, of course). this is a 5, if ever a release waranted...

  • Solid Power Metal
  • "Sons of society" is in the same musical vein as Riot's "Inishmore" and "Through the storm" - It's so called Power Metal. The music is usually fast and well performed with great vocals, melodic...

  Inishmore

  • There's still hope for heavy metal thanks to Riot
  • Riot are a band that somehow lived in the shadow of more commercial successful bands like Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Scorpions etc. Ain't that a shame? Cause Riot, led by guitarist Mark Reale were...

  • Solid Power Metal
  • Riot have been around since the late 70's, with main songwriter Mark Reale the sole remnant from that early lineup.

    Opening the booklet for _Inishmore_, I was greeted with a story about the Irish...

  • Great album!!
  • This is a great look at early Riot and a must have for all Riot fans. the remaster returns this release to the prominence it deserves. I think it's far better than Narita but not quite at the level...

  • A solid debut
  • Americans Riot released their debut, "Rock city" in 1977. That was indeed a diverse musical time - hard rockers Kiss were bigger than ever, Disco as a musical genre was very popular, and punk rock...

  • Riot Rocks!
  • An under appreciated band, I think. I do also have the earlier released (but later in time) EP on vinyl. This CD makes for an interesting comparison that EP. The EP versions are more powerful I...

  • Good stuff !
  • Tough to fill Riot's Original Vocalist spot. Rhett (R.I.P) has a good voice thou, and Mark's riffs are vintage RIOT. If you like WASP you will enjoy "Loanshark". "Restless Breed" and "Showdown" are...

  • Guy Speranza Where Are You?
  • I'm a huge fan of Riot WITH their original lead vocalist-Guy Speranza. Without him, Riot is only half as good. Lead guitarist, Mark Reale, is great; but Guy's voice really made the band unique....

  • Get the import!!!!!!!
  • I love this album! Get the import version though. The extra live tracks will make you happy you did. Must have for Riot fans and serious collectors of no nonsense 80's hard rock and metal!

  • Schrafty
  • Born in America is a solid early 80's metal record. It does include some exceptional songs like running from the law, heavy metal machine and the title track, but there are also a few fillers here....
