History

Day of Fire's lead singer, Josh Brown, was formerly the vocalist for Full Devil Jacket. Signed to Island/Def Jam Records, Full Devil Jacket enjoyed a successful, though short, career. They made one album and one EP, and toured with Nickelback and Creed. In 2000, while in Full Devil Jacket, Brown nearly died of a heroin overdose but was able to recover through a drug rehabilitation program. While recording the second Full Devil Jacket album he decided to leave the music industry. Several years later, he started Day of Fire, and signed to an imprint of Sony Music.

Day of Fire's 2004 self-titled debut album featured hits like "Cornerstone" and "Detainer". The album was produced by Scott Humphrey, who has also worked with Metallica and Rob Zombie. It won a Dove Award for Rock Album of the Year and was also nominated for a Grammy Award.

Their second album, called Cut & Move, was released on June 6, 2006. "Run", a track from Cut & Move, was the theme song for WWE Unforgiven 2006. Other hit songs from the album include "Love", "Hole In My Hand", and "Frustrating".

In the fall of 2006, Day of Fire supported Pillar on their "Days of the Reckoning Tour". The tour lasted from October to November of 2006 and also featured the rock/metal bands The Showdown and Decyfer Down.

In early 2007, Day of Fire announced they were no longer signed to Essential Records, but that they had made plans to record a new album sometime in 2008.

Throughout 2008 and 2009 Day of Fire toured with the band Daughtry and has since written a few songs with Chris Daughtry to be on their next record.

Day of Fire recorded an album independently using financial support from fans in late 2008.

In early 2009, Day of Fire announced they had signed a Record Deal with Razor and Tie Records and will be putting out a record in the early 2010. They are gearing up to release a new single to Active Rock Radio in fall 2009.
