        			Galaxie 500 began to play beyond the Boston limits and their stock rose, especially in the UK where Today wasreceived enthusiastically. In the summer of 1989, the band re-entered Kramer&#x92;s studio to record their second album,On Fire, and its companion EP, the UK-only release Blue Thunder, both for Rough Trade. The critical acclaim for these recordings was deafening. Sounds described the album as &quot;utter magnificence,&quot; Melody Maker called it &quot;astunning collection of daydream pop,&quot; even Rolling Stone gave it 3&#xBD; stars.The world was beating its head on Galaxie&#x92;s door; the On Fire/Blue Thunder pairing expanded effortlessly on theband&#x92;s exquisite base. The plaintive threads of the Galaxie 500 sound had been pulled tighter by the technicalproficiency that had enveloped these ex-amateurs, and unlike so many others, technique had sharpened their instinctsrather than masked them. Playing with flash is superfluous, when you have the moxie to cover Red Crayola&#x92;s &quot;VictoryGarden&quot; and Joy Division&#x92;s &quot;Ceremony,&quot; making both of them over in your own image. With the release of On Fire/Blue Thunder, Galaxie 500 took their playing to a whole new level.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great album
  

*by R***H on September 17, 2019*









  
  
    Love this album, and that I was able to get it on vinyl! Even though it's a reprint, it's been tricky to find copies of. Glad I was able to find it here, and with quick shipping!
  


### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Lo-fi Mellow Punk
  

*by M***R on November 9, 2013*









  
  
    Discovered this band from watching 120 Minutes on MTV 20+ years ago.  The song "Blue Thunder" captured my attention, with the rest of the album holding up equally as well.  Light punk, not overproduced, with a singer that's not quite always on key (like The Flaming Lips) but still has a distinctive voice with a subtle beauty.
  


### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A Canonical Indie-Rock Album
  

*by B***N on May 14, 2017*









  
  
    This album rocks. One of my all-time favorites. Even in the age of digital musical, On Fire deserves to be listened to from beginning to end; with the sound of the needle hitting the vinyl and manually flipping to Side B and all. If you're waffling between buying this now or saving the money for something else, you're already beyond the point at which you should have just clicked the Buy Now button.
