Except 'Point Blank', which outclasses it... just slightly.
err, by a decent way for me :-)
That will always spark a debate tho.
Then I'll go ahead and throw a log in...Knock Out was just as good as both. Outside of those three, the other releases are good but never lived up to those again.
I thought "Knock Out" was pretty hopeless at the time, but it amazingly then turned out to be their last decent album IMO. "Fireworks" is THE classic IMO, though it verged on AOR at times so I understand those who prefer the harder rockin' approach of "Point Blank". I think I bought the "Strike X" album (which sucked) so I will never buy any of their albums again (unless they do a "Fireworks 2"!)....
Fireworks is the ultimate Bonfire classic for me. Bonfire claims they are going back to that style with the Branded album. When I first heard the three songs I started to believe that Bonfire have made the best album since Fireworks since these songs were really good. But stardard of the songs that follows wasn't as good as the first three but it is still an enjoyable album. One of the best they have done in a long time.
