Fire, the debut album by Detroit’s Electric Six exploded onto the scene in 2003 and broke dancefloors everywhere. Containing the hit singles “Danger! High Voltage!” with rumored backing vocals by Jack White, and the iconic “Gay Bar”, the album celebrates its 21st anniversary this year.
21 years ago, Fire, the debut album by Detroit’s Electric Six was granted Gold Record status after the band exploded onto the scene and broke dancefloors everywhere. Yet no one knows who they were, what they were doing or what the hell that was all about. Only one thing is certain: the 2003 release contained hit singles “Danger! High Voltage!” with rumored backing vocals by Jack White, and the iconic “Gay Bar” which was an instant classic.
On February 28th, 2025 we will celebrate the 21st anniversary of Fire’s release, with an expansive limited-edition investigation into their strange legend. The multi-format box set contains the original album (remastered), a LP containing 15 rarities & unreleased tracks, a DVD of suggestive video evidence, a bonus CD with even more bonus tracks, an exhausting 40-page investigative summary booklet and piles of declassified additional evidence.
"Electric Six are "The rock equivalent of a duty-bound pack of Wild West outlaws who've spent the last 25 years on Mars and are now returning to right the musical wrongs of us puny Earth creatures." - THE DETROIT METRO TIMES
