JC_AOR Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 1927 are in the studio now. New album should be complete in a few weeks/maybe a month. haven't they been in the studios for about 7 years now? Well yes, they've been saying that for years now, but this time they have actually entered the studio. Any hints as to what this will actually sound like? I have to be honest and say I'd be absolutely stunned if they actually produced something worthwhile. But it would be a pleasant shade of being stunned. I'm not really sure what direction they are heading in with thtis new album, but I can say the two new songs I have heard them play live are excellent. I'd be expecting something a lot more modern sounding than the classic 1927 sound but we shall see. To be honest these guys didn't write any songs that I didn't enjoy. I can play all three of their discs from start to finish and enjoy all of it. I don't know why, I just have a real liking for their sound.

heaven&hell Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 are there any news regarding Sweet F.A's new album ? didn't know they're reuniting again, will check for info There's been rumors about that the last couple of years since they got back together for that unreleased disc but I've heard nothing concrete yet. It would be great to see them do something new for a good label where they'd could get a good production. I saw the revamped line-up last spring in Indy.Even w/only two of the original guys left they sounded great! The rumored new stuff (which im about 99.9% sure will get released this year) im looking forward to,but ill admit i hope the material is worthy of their brand.Id rather have that old line up again but thats the way it goes... Out of curiosity, who were the 2 originals? Steve Delong and James Thorpe (guitar) What's Jon Huffman and Nick Lane up to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sound pretty good, but no mention of an album on their Myspace page. yes, Australian band, probably they're not updating the Myspace anymore ? check out their Facebook : http://www.facebook.com/pages/DIAMOND-EYE/54775351364 you can order the cd from there. btw, this is a live disc, quite strange for a band to release a live disc as their debut, but the full length might be out later this year, or maybe early next year.

jstoyz Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 'Bonrud' have a new album coming out 2011 as well: "The new bonrud single "Bullet in the Back" is the first track to be released from the new bonrud CD which is currently being recorded with Keith Olsen. "Bullet in the Back" is available as an mp3 download from all of your favorite digital retailers. You can purchase "Bullet in the Back" through itunes, amazon, and CD Baby. "Bullet in the Back" was mixed by legendary rock producer Keith Olsen at Pogologo Studio in California. Keith has won six Grammy's and the CD's he has produced have sold over 120,000,000 copies. He has produced CD's for Foreigner, Whitesnake, Sammy Hagar, Night Ranger, Ozzy Osbourne, Rick Springfield, and many more. The track was mastered by Steve Hall who has mastered CD's for Alice In Chains, Rod Stewart, REO, Pat Benatar, Richard Marx, and many others. The sophomore bonrud CD featuring Rick Forsgren on lead vocals will be released in the summer of 2011." Their first album was awesome and from what I can remember it was very highly regarded by the AOR community. Yes, I agree completely, the Bonrud- S/T CD was classy, melodic, and almost, daresay, essential. Great news that another record is on the way !

Oh how I wish that it should sound like "...ish." The grandest Aussie AOR album of 'em all IMO. I think I might marry that CD one day, or at least invite it in for a snuggly 3-way w/m'lady. Yes, I might just do that.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC_AOR Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Wow, nice work on that list! Sure makes me wish I had a better paying job. I can't wait for that Whitesnake Monsters of Rock DVD. Work of Art, Kimball/Jamison, Jeff Paris, Journey, Big Life, 1927 - all very exciting. And Reckless Love - I'm expecting good things from their next album too. GREGG GIUFFRIA - tba (AOR) / Frontiers Records anyone know what this one is going to be like? THE STORM - tba (AOR) / Frontiers Records is this the Chlafant/Rollie band or someone else?

Nightrain Posted April 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I haven't read any more latest news regarding those two, but I guess Giuffria will be in the soft AOR style while The Storm should have been Rolie/Chalfant as both two personnels are still active these days.
