Description

On Fire!, originally released in 1988, is by far the heaviest of all Petra albums with the exception of Jekyll and Hyde.  A true hard rock masterpiece if there ever was one. On Fire! was nominated for a Grammy™ and won a Dove award for their music video. It was also the first album to include their new bassist, Ronnie Cates.  It was PETRA IN THEIR PRIME and deserving of all the awards bestowed on them by the critics and fans.  After This Means War dropped in 1987 with such success, no one would ever go on record saying that Petra would be able to top it. That thought would have been ludicrous.  But the band, engineers, and producers had other plans, forging an entirely new album that would go down as one of the band's all-time great albums, and for most, their absolute favorite.  As much as this album rocks, it also checks all the boxes for a spiritual warfare attack on the kingdom of darkness. Make no mistake about it, this is one album that is a threat to the enemy or anyone that thinks that Petra won't go down fighting. They were absolutely on fire (pun intended). It's a true representation of what a rock album should be. Just one listen and you'll quickly understand why Petra was everyone’s favorite Christian Rock band.   

Remastered from original sources with an 8-page booklet with lyrics in a jewel case. It also comes with a very special flaming LTD collector’s card inside.

    Petra Perfection!

    I wanted it and I bought it! Petra on vinyl- Amazing… Petra on Splatter vinyl - WOW
    Girder was “On Fire” when they made these. Get yours today before they are gone. I had never even heard of Girder until I accidentally ran into their website looking for Petra. They had 5 other Petra records I bought too and they are just as amazing. Unfortunately, the More Power To Ya and the Beat the System special editions were sold out. Thanks Girder for making these and making them top notch!

    By far the most awesome artwork of any of the records I've owned

    This album is incredible and has been a hard to find album on vinyl for years. Girder Music sent it in a protective box, and it was absolutely perfect opening it up. I cranked up my speakers and blasted it in my house upon arrival. The artwork is unbelievable- and a bonus for everything else you get with Girder Music and the quality they bring.

    Now I feel like I need to collect all the other Petra albums from Girder just so I can have their awesome designs in my collection! Girder Music has been such a blessing to our household- bringing back quality music and putting it to quality vinyl! Highly recommend doing business with them!

    Outstanding Quality!

    This album sounds incredible! The drums and keyboards are more defined, and the backing vocals are easier to hear. When I was reading the description for this item, I was afraid that the remastering would change too much, and that it wouldn't sound right. However, I was wrong! It still sounds like "On Fire!". The changes I found don't hinder the listening experience. As I said before, the percussion and keyboards are more pronounced, the backing vocals are easier to hear, and the songs are all the same general volume. This means that you don't have to finish listening to "Mine Field" and crank up the volume so you can hear "First Love". On top of that, it has the quality you can expect vinyl to have 35 years after the album released. I think it's important to remember that this (along with Girder's other vinyl records) comes in mint condition. You won't have to worry about scratches or scuffs, because this has never been played. Much better than treasure hunting on eBay for decent quality and price! Along those same lines, you have no idea how the eBay seller will pack the vinyl. Girder, however, packs them extremely cautiously so that there's no way your vinyl will come damaged. The vinyl is in a box, covered by cardboard, which is inside another box! I 100% recommend this album.
