In recent years the art of heavy metal singing has been reduced to one sustained guttural yowl, so when a metal singer like Kyle Thomas comes along with a more melodic but equally fierce take--think a Southern Bruce Dickinson--there should be cause for much rejoicing in the metal community. OPEN FIRE is Thomas's first record with Southern metal stalwarts Alabama Thunderpussy, and with chops like these--ripping open tunes like "The Beggar," "The Cleansing," and "Whiskey War"--one hopes it will not be a short-lived tenure. And, oh yeah, the band shreds.

Audio Mixer: Ian Whalen.

Alabama Thunderpussy: Mike Bryant (bass guitar); Bryan Cox (drums); Erik Larson, Ryan Lake, Kyle Thomas.

Personnel: Kyle Thomas (vocals); Erik Larson, Ryan Lake (guitar); Bryan Cox (drums); Hormel Flansuego (percussion).

Rolling Stone (p.74) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Guitarist Ryan Lake can shred with the best, often navigating thick Sabbath-y soup but also noodling, lengthy, bluesy solos worthy of the Allman Brothers..."
Kerrang (Magazine) (p.47) - "ATP as a whole reign victorious, finally finding a vocalist strong enough to complement their sheer brute force."

5 stars Metal Is Back! Southern Style!
I have a few Alabama Thunderpussy cds. I like Fulton Hill and Staring At the Divine...but they're not my favorite. It always felt like something was missing. They seem to change singers too much. It's like Spinal Tap or something. But with Open Fire the wheel has spun in the right direction. With new singer Kyle Thomas they seem more focused and much more metal. My favorite bands are Maiden,Priest,Grand Magus,Electric Wizard,Black Sabbath... and I'll be honest as I listened to this cd I thought back to the first time I heard Number of the Beast by Maiden. Cool riffs,intrusting lyrics,good vocals....well its all there. I'm not saying they sound like Iron Maiden but they have that strong song structure...with a southern vibe...its weird it almost sounds like the music could have been recorded in the 80's...I mean that in a good way... at one point while I was listening to the cd I said to my girlfriend "damn! listen to that solo...who the hell is that guy?!!" Yes it's that good....Go buy it today!
