Retrospect Records

Recommended Posts

Retrospect Records is extremely excited to announce that Ron Keel and Defcon will be touring together starting in March 2007. These will be Defcon's first live dates in 15 years! Hopefully this will coincide with the brand new Defcon album as well as the official Retrospect release of the first ever Keel DVD.

 

Shows are already booked in Ohio and Michigan and some dates will include other Retrospect artists like Herazz , Weapons , Stit and Oney. I hope we make it to your town!

 

Question to all Defcon fans....what songs would you like to hear live?

 

Yes I will be playing keyboards for both Ron Keel and Defcon - woohoo!

 

2007 will be an even bigger year for Retrospect Records as we already have over 30 releases scheduled for January / February and so much more in store.

 

OFFICIAL KEEL / DEFCON DATES WILL BE POSTED SOON SO KEEP YOUR EYES PEELED!

 

 

Happy Holidaze and thanks to everyone who supported Retrospect and made us the largest re-issue label in the world!

    • No official release yet so don't know when exactly the album is supposed to come out but I'm assuming it's this year. I'm sure you're all brimming with excitement.
    • I posed him that exact question on his discord page as to what his future plans are.... He said he plans to relax for a bit, do his You Tube thing, keep writing new music and then will decide how to release that music.  He said as of now he's thinking he'll either do a solo thing or form his own band.  He didn't say this but I'd sort of envision a Daughtry type "band" where he kind of puts a band behind his name. So essentially, I think you're right on with his plans.  Ultimately, I think like you say, the control is a big part of it.  I think he wants to be able to operate on his own schedule to maintain his health and family obligations. It'll be interesting to see what sound the new material takes on.  It would seem logical to think it would be rock/melodic rock of some sort since that's really the type of music he's built his following with but he certainly has shown he can dabble anywhere from AOR to metal.
    • Glad I got to see them with Erik in front. All the best to him, definitely looking forward to his future outings when he is fully recovered. Would be cool to see him form his own band, where he could take control, and play around in different genres, from full on metal, to soothing AOR, the guy is so versatile.
    • Remedy - Crying Heart. One I've just seen thanks to the Iridium channel.  From the upcoming album. It's a Killer.     
    • Let's not forget Benny Hill. What a Magnificent show that was.    
    • Yeah... I dunno about that. It would be too cringe. Who knows? If I'm high enough, I might submit a video. 
    • Yep great track and if you fancy being in the video for "The Feeling" nows your chance.  
    • I'm proud to say that I had this single when I was a mere 8 years old. KISS were big down here then. Norman Gunston is Iconic for Aussies of my vintage.  The face ln the bottom left says it all. Hilarious.     
    • All in all, this is a great story. Erik played a brilliant, well received, albeit short cameo with one of our favourite bands.  It was a win, win, win. A win for us, a win for Skid Row (the album certainly put them back on the map) and a win for Erik, adding this to his already impressive resume. The fact that it was so amicable with both parties is also great to see.
    • I really like this album - not every song on it but there are some surprisingly catchy melodies all over. Personally I think the singer adds great energy to the mix. It reminds me of the earlier Bai Bang ("closer to you")
