Band member Ian Berney said ""This Fire" was probably one of the most effortless songs I've ever been part of a writing team for. I'll never forget the night that chorus came out – imagine five guys with one acoustic guitar, singing the song at the top of their lungs and all getting super excited. I like how the lyrics assign responsibility to ourselves for the urban disasters that we’ve created. Live, it’s one of the strongest… 9 times out of 10 we play it last; it just finishes a set with such command - probably a favourite for the whole band."^[2]

Jason Strange from The AU Review said; ""This Fire" is the lead single... and has Ian Kenny's trademark voice and lyrical poetry, picking up nicely from where they left off with the last record. Judging by this, they have another number one album on the way."^[3]
