Great atmosphere and surprisingly dark lyrical themes. Me like.

I think there's a couple of weak tracks, the rest is classic BÖC material.

A classic album and among the best of the band, as many with this material knew the group long ago.

I'd only listened to "Burnin For You". Now I've listened to the whole album. Very enjoyable and, as someone else mentioned, surprisingly dark (and metal!) lyrics

In my opinion, this is BÖC's strongest album and a timeless classic. There's certainly no bad tracks on this album but highlights for me aside the obivous "Burnin For You" would have to be "After Dark" , "Joan Crawford", "Heavy Metal: The Black And Silver" and the title track "Fire Of Unkown Origin". The writing, composition and production on this album is all stellar. What can I say, I love it. You can feel that the band was properly surrounded.
