"...as radio ready as anything that comes out of this city. In fact, it's hard to imagine a label not being able to turn "You Gave Up on Me" into a hit."
Feature // "White Like Fire Comes Back Strong" // Pittsburgh Post Gazette

"...they sure do make heartbreak, feeling lost in life, loneliness, and those darker times sound so damn cool... You'll be captivated by catchy and relatable songwriting, harmononizing pop vocals, stomping drums, hands claps that you'll join in with, wild guitars... lead vocals that make you smile and feel every emotion that he's conveying, high-pitched, growling soulful rock shout... All of the songs are top notch."
Album Review // Crayon Beats // NY and AZ

"The Pittsburgh Rock Outfit White Like Fire gather a hurricane of artists, dancers, college students, photographers, and film professionals for their video to Crimson."
Crimson Video Premiere // PopMatters

"... imagine you’re in a town like Pittsburgh and you start a band that not only fares well locally, but then has a song that’s associated with the Pirates? The guys of White Like Fire don’t have to imagine, because it’s their reality."
Get Enlightened with White Like Fire // Golden Mixtape

"The headliner of the night was quintet White Like Fire, whose stunning harmonies filled the room with palpable pleasure."
The Cut Magazine // Pittsburgh

"“Wait the Night Out,” a polished collection of 6 sophisticated tracks that saw the band grow dramatically with their sound, inspiration and appearance... the EP is a pop masterpiece with a music video to match."
White Like Fire Brings Fire Back To Pittsburgh // Sound Scene Express // Pittsburgh

"It’s soulful, crescendoing, American-style Rock that is that is tempered in the same fires as it’s classic rock ancestors, and quenched with the personality of Appalachia-infused Americana. And when the song overtakes that last peak and reaches it’s full froth, it’s as good and as exciting as anything else within shouting distance of the sub-genre has to offer. The band self-released their Wait the Night Out EP on April 21st, although if they continue to craft songs like this they won’t have to self-release their albums for much longer."
Required Listening // Striker Bill

"Catchy as f*ck tunes with emotional tinges crisping the edges of greatly executed and interesting arrangements. Not emotional in the “emo” sense of the word, emotional in the way that it grabs you and leaves a mark, but you are having fun and smiling while feeling these perhaps slightly deeper and more poignant emotions. Its good man, real good."
Video Review // Red Line Roots // Boston

Video Review // Crayon Beats // NY and AZ

"... an impressive introduction to the band that has the potential to launch them into a higher musical orbit."
Wildy's World // NY

"Wait the Night Out mixes tiny doses of twang into dancy rock songs, reel in Mumford-esque crescendos and even try on some soul revival. Lead vocalist Tyler Clawson has a thick, full-bodied, arena-ready voice that finds the middle ground between Kings of Leon's Caleb Followill and Phosphorescent's Matthew Houck."
Review // Pittsburgh City Paper

"'You Gave Up On Me' is a great example of what they do best... crafting emotionally melodramatic but endearing lyrics inside a song that is building to a really anthemic chorus and amazing third conclusion to the song. It's exciting, it's very tight... honed in on Kings of Leon vibe in their early years... "
