âWe didnât know what was causing the fire, what was feeding the fire,â Undersheriff Stu Nay said. âYou never know, when youâre dealing with airflow and the intensity of the fire where weâre facing a backdraft situation, what weâre running into. (www.msnbc.msn.c..../21107259/)
Next up is one of the best songs of 2004. Labrat (which I have no idea why it is titled that) by Backdraft has a cool old school sample in it with a pounding nu-school bass line and funky drum patterns. (dancemusic.about.com....Tampa4.htm)

The 'Fire' EP takes quite obviously the heavier approach, progressing upon Vheissu 's more volatile, confrontational moments. What ends up as a 22-minute musical result is Thrice's closest effort to a Hydra Head Records release yet in their catalog, strongly reminiscent of the pinnacle eras of acts like Cave In (i.e. the incredibly Jupiter -esque guitar squeals of "Backdraft " and "Burn the Fleet") and Isis ("Burn the Fleet"). Thrice reenforce heated imagery with plenty of lyrical references to flames, burning, generally hot temperatures and such. However, their repetitive use of it actually bogs down the EP a little. After all, frontman Dustin Kensrue seems a bit thin on ideas when he sings " I will see this city burn " in the anthemic "The Arsonist" and " we will burn the fleet " in "Burn the Fleet."
