As with all the band's work, Kramer once again handles the production, the perfect person to bring out Galaxie 500's particular approach. The combination of his continued use of reverb and the sudden, dramatic shifts in the music - never exploding, just delivering enough of a change - makes for fine results. Released October 20, 1989. On Fire Tracklist. Blue Thunder Lyrics. Fire and the whole place cleared out in no time. The maid of honor even broke her ankle in two places after being shoved down the altar by the always overly zealous justice of the peace. Well, the ankle was pretty bad and the maid of honor had to be shot, and exactly one week later the entire block burned to the ground. Album 1989 13 Songs. On Fire Galaxie 500.

On Fire was the second studio album by American indie band Galaxie 500, released in 1989 on Rough Trade Records. Produced by Mark Kramer and recorded at Noise New York. Galaxie 500 didn't last long. They formed in Boston in 1986, released three albums between 1988 and 1990, got great notices in the press especially the UK, and then dissolved. Following their breakup, after which lead singer and guitarist Dean Wareham went on to Luna and the rhythm section of Damon Krukowski and Naomi Yang formed Magic Hour and Damon and Naomi, Galaxie 500 albums went out of print. Krukowski bought the master tapes in an auction, the albums were gathered with bonus material in a box set by Rykodisc in 1996 and then reissued separately. Today might be the best song-by-song album of Galaxie 500's three. Genre: Slowcore. It's a perfect album to play in the background while studying or when you're on the go. The flow is great, the songs open up nicely and the guitar solo's feel like honey. I would describe it best as a sweet sunday afternoon record. My main problem is that a lot of songs sound the same, and it's pretty forgettable for the most part. But tracks like Blue Thunder and Decomposing Trees really surprised me, and they keep making me come back to this album. read more. Galaxie 500 formed in 1987, when grunge was becoming a major factor in the US music scene. But the sound these three Harvard graduates produced was completely at odds with the fuzzed-up power of their peers. Even on their finest hour, On Fire, Galaxie 500s music is subtle and slow burning. It doesnt reveal its secrets immediately. The groups stripped-down sound invites inevitable comparisons with The Velvet Underground, particularly their self-titled third album. Released in 1989, On Fire is the groups second album. With the help of producer Kramer, the songs sound slightly distanced, which has the effect of drawing in the listener to meet them halfway
