The Nights - s/t

[Stefan]

 

Press release:

BREAKING NEWS: Frontiers Music Srl is pleased to announce the signing of an extremely promising melodic rock band from Finland, THE NIGHTS.

The Nights was formed in the summer of 2015 by Sami Hyde (vocals) and Ilkka Wirtanen (guitar). Both Sami and Ilkka have successful careers in music, in Finland and abroad. Sami has been a singer for many acts and projects, including the Tony Mills Band (SHY, TNT) in 2008 which also included Geoff Nichols (Black Sabbath) on keyboards and Neil Hibbs (SHY) on guitar. He has also written songs for many artists, including The Magnificent ("If It Takes All Night", "Lost", and "Drive"). Ilkka Wirtanen is best known for his work as a producer with international acts like glam metal band Reckless Love, for whom he has produced four albums and co-written many of their popular songs, including "Hot" and "Night On Fire". He has also produced several other rock bands (Baton Rogue Morgue, Hellcity Punks) and worked as a mixer for international acts (S.E.X. Department).

THE NIGHTS was formed because Sami and Ilkka felt a common need to write songs that "make you feel good and also give tribute to our everlasting heroes in music, for example TNT and Yngwie Malmsteen. Frontiers interest was piqued by their songs featuring a superb mixture of classic pop melodies and modern melodic rock/metal production and the band was signed!

I like it too but the production sounds a bit thin. Sounds like the drumming was programmed instead of real drums.

I thought that too. Still a great track!

[Stefan]

Another good one. The drum sound is still pretty thin like I mentioned in the previous post.

 

[Delbert]

The track "Juliette" has much more "energy" than the first track posted and sparks my interest in this band more so than it was after hearing the first track "Welcome To The Show"!!

[Mr.AOR]

Yep sounds cool,will check it out.

[Stefan]

[Invisible_man]

[Stefan]
