The Library is on Fire. De-evolved start in Kent, Ohio (Steve Five - Singer/Guitarist, born in Ravenna, Ohio. Pete Sustarsic - Drums 'n' Percussion, born in Medina, Ohio), relegated to the Television of New York City by forces other than music (Poetry studies at The New School and a series of paradiddles, the Essence of Brushes). Kept afloat, influenced and inspired by the will and wits of a child of the Commonwealth of Virginia (Mark Shue - Bass Guitar/Singer) and guided by the voices of their Ohio venerables and bright wax jammerz (produced by Todd Tobias, Guided By Voices/Robert Pollard/Circus Devils). Part of a long line of ephemerals, smashed bits of guitars in TLIOFHQ, a show as NIVARNA, photo books of lightning and gemstones, notebooks full of images and presents and candy for the mind. Many new songs fulfilled. Volume is currently an opportunity, siding heavily on the liberal, sliding heavily into libel. The Library is on Fire.

"Brooklyn locals the Library is On Fire's overdue books are dated "1990s indie rock": Their groovy, rockin', subdued tunes seriously vibe Dinosaur Jr. and they do a Guided By Voices cover to boot. Good stuff—if the library weren't already burnt down, all fines would be waved." - The Village Voice
"The loudest acts to brave the unsheltered street performance locations attracted the largest crowds. The Library Is On Fire, a Bushwick three-piece, selected their performance time and location fortuitously. Minutes into their 3 p.m. set outside of Northside Deli, at Bedford Avenue and North 6th Street, the sky was still clear, spectators were gathering, and the amps were turned up to eleven. TLIOF’s paradigmatic blend of guitar/bass/drums, audible from blocks away, was difficult to resist...Dozens of passers-by gratefully applauded TLIOF’s sludgy, agitative rock music. Lead singer/guitarist Steve Five, fairly drenched in sweat from a set in the muggy pre-rain outdoor air, remarked on the band’s luck in choosing an early time slot, as storm clouds gathered overhead. TLIOF’s first full-length, produced by Todd Tobias (Guided by Voices) is due out later this year." - The Greenpoint Gazette
