A fellow trader mate of mine sent this cd to me by mistake when i bought some cds from him and he said to burn a copy before i return it.I desided to give it a spin and i'm enjoying this so much that i'm thinking of buying it from him if it's not promised to anyone else.

 

Just wondering if there's any fans of this band on the board?

Brilliant band. And the reason some of us here are so frustrated with the Rock Sugar release. For your info, Dave, this is the same band that has released the CD under the band name "Rock Sugar" this year, which is essentially an album of poor cover songs. As you have now tasted, if you can record original songs that good, why waste your time dicking around with cover songs?

 

Which is the album you have? 'Disc-Connected'?

You can add me to list of fans...their 'Disc-Connected' release is excellent and I haven't got around to hearing the 'S/T' CD yet....

 

 

The first release is just too cheesy for me but Disconnected is AWESOME!!!!

F**ck,F**ck and bloody F**ck as this cd is promised to someone else but at least i have discovered a gem.The version that my mate has is a Jap press Avalon micy 1030 with one bonus Jap track and this S/T release is a 1997 press.

 

I will burn a cdr and scan the cover as i have been really enjoying this one.

 

I agree Geoff,why piss fart around with bland boring covers when you as a band know that you can write some kick ass material but i guess like alot of bands studio covers and being a live cover band brings in more $.

 

Jess Harnell has a great set of pipes and the band is tight as,get back in the studio and do something original,don't waste the talent you have as i would pick up anything new from this band.

Well seeing as the band are getting more media attention as Rock Sugar than they ever got as Loud & Clear, that gives them a damn good reason to record such a great covers CD.

    • 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")
