Fire of Love is the raw, powerful debut from blues-punk pioneers The Gun Club. Formed in 1979, the band fused Delta blues, rockabilly, and ’60s garage with amplified intensity. Released in 1981 on Ruby Records, this classic album features the lineup with Ward Dotson on guitar and The Bags’ rhythm section. Highlights include the energetic opener “Sex Beat” and Pierce’s iconic love anthem “She’s Like Heroin to Me.”
