This is the first album since TNT reunited in 1996. Tony looks like a Mexican mafia, doesn't he? :) This album was very controversial among the fans. Some people hoped Firefly to be a catchy hard pop album like Intuition and they were disappointed at TNT with the '90s flavor on Firefly. Some songs are kinda like alternative rock, but TNT is still TNT whenever it is. All the songs have TNT feelings and they are still good melody makers.

Yutaka's Favorites
The first half of this album is awesome! Firefly has a very cool riff and Ronni explodes during the solo. Angels Ride has a good rhythm and Tripping is very melodic. Daisy Jayne is so catchy and the solo with tapping trills are awesome. If you are a guitar player, you gotta love the intro to Somebody Told You. The guitar solo is really cool too. I really love melodic Month Of Sundays. I don't care what people say, but I love Only The Thief. Who can write and play a song like that except TNT?
