Overview In just over a year since their debut release, Day of Fire has accomplished many things most new artists only dream of. They won a Dove award, were nominated for a Grammy, toured in front of over 500,000 in the U.S as well as Europe, and made appearances on CNN and 700 Club. When you ask lead singer Joshua Brown what he?s learned from all this, it?s not about the awards or places they?ve traveled, but the people they?ve met. ?I want to show people the love of God in action, loving people for who they are.?
On their sophomore release the band reaches out through song on topics such as addiction, abuse and abandonment and offers hope in the love of God. ?This album is about identifying with the pain and insecurity that we all feel as people and finding hope in the love that is far greater than anything we have ever experienced,? says Joshua Brown. ?I realize we are all in a desperate and constant need of the love of God.? It?s this passion for connecting with people and encouraging them that sets Day of Fire apart.

This cd is a good cd and I would recommend buying it. I have been a Day of Fire fan since they first came out and I cannot decide weather I like this cd or the old one better. The first one was definatly more catchy but this album is better and more complex musicly. It is good but slightly differant than the older album. It is heavier than their old one but not by too much. Their live show really brought this album to life for me so I would recommend seeing them live every oppertunity you get.
A fresh, harder take than Debut Nov 9, 2006
First, I loved the first album, but it seemed a little jumpy to me for some reason...great album but it seemed like the syle kept changing. Cut and Move however is simply a straight rock album through and through. I can remember the first time I heard 'Love', the riff was a hook and it immediately got my blood pumping...from there on this CD had my attention.
There are a few erks though, some songs like 'when the light' seem drawn out. And the songs get a little to repititous at times, sticking to the same Verse chorus Verse bridge chorus out formula. As a musician I know how easy it is to fall into this trap but the songs are so fast and intense it really doens't bog it down that much. Another thing that kind of dissapoints me is that lyrically it isn't as Christian as the first. Sure songs like "Hole in my Hand" and "Reborn" are dead giveaways, but I'm just one of those kinds of people who are starving for more 'bold in the word' bands like Disciple.
Some people don't like 'too much spiritualness' in bands but that is what really makes a good Christian band to me. Overall, the CD is a fast, adrenaline pumping rock album and would recommend it to anyone.
Breath of fresh air Nov 4, 2006
I have a 200-song playlist on my MP3 player that randomly plays tunes from various bands including Day of Fire, Decyfer Down, RED, and DecembeRadio. As the player churned through the list, some song would come on, and I'd say "wow, that's a great song. who does it?" I'd glance at the artist name, and every time, it was Day of Fire. A great band, and great in concert too.
Just A Good, Solid Rock Album Oct 16, 2006
Despite being constantly labeled as a Christian act and as the band of ex-Full Devil Jacket frontman, Josh Brown, many people forget one important thing about Day Of Fire: They simply rock. An engaging voice, meaningful lyrics and accomplished musicianship are what these guys are all about, and their second album, despite being a bit of a departure from the debut, demonstrates this beautifully.
Sounds Like:
The Good: - The production is tight and Josh's voice is as prominant as ever. - All ten tracks are worth a listen. - The album doesn't just appeal to Christians (just ask me!).
The Bad: - It's kinda short. - As is the case with many Christian bands, the lyrics can get a bit too preachy at moments.
Hits: "Hole In My Hand" "Love" "Run" and "Wake Me."
Misses: "Reborn," closing out the album on a rather awkward note.
Future: I think this album is just as good as it's predecessor, so it shouldn't alienate too many fans.
Personally: I don't care to mix religion with music, but Day Of Fire do it well so who am I to criticize? I wish they would get more radioplay, as they are one of the more interesting "new" rocks bands.
Best Listened To When: You realize Full Devil Jacket are gone forever.
Not as good as their first album. Sep 16, 2006
The album lacks in variety, many of the tracks are repetitive and the whole album is 32 minutes. Though I wouldn't own this album unless there were some good songs: Especially "Wake Me" and "When The Light". If you want to listen to Day Of Fire, get their first album.
