After one quick listen, I think "Elegantly Wasted" is my favourite tune, if only for the subject matter. ;}

Good tune.  I almost wish that song had another verse or something though....Feels a little short for some reason even though it's 3 minutes long.  Maybe it's the kind of abrupt ending it has that is making it feel short to me.  Interesting song though.

sounding more like Eclipse than WET to me but that's hardly surprising 

Erik can do no wrong imo. 

Erik can do no different. IMO. It's not terrible but it's just the same as the rest. I'm kind of getting bored of his style. Needs to learn a few new tricks.

Pleased to report that this is more varied.

Probably about half the album is like a more melodic Eclipse, granted.............but that's not a surprise. But there are a few which break it up a bit.

My early favs are not the singles as well which is always nice.

Great job.

I'm not going to try to compare to the previous 2, but looking at what's scheduled to be released this year I'd be amazed if this doesn't make top 5.

Some great albums yet to come in 2018.

difficult to know where this would have placed last year. There was some awesome stuff last year. Top 10 for sure, but top 5 not so sure.

Listened to it tonight and I was not disappointed.  My favorite tracks at the moment are "Burn", "Elegantly Wasted" and "Dangerous".  While it might end up in my top 5 this year, I initially feel it is a notch or two below their prior releases, with Rise Up still being my favorite.

Can't see how this will be topped. Best album from start to finish that I have heard for several years. 

I predict that Vega, to be released shortly, will topple it already.

I also think it's quite good. Definitely not too Eclipse-ish. Vocals aside, I actually hear a lot more of JSS in this album than I feel like I've heard in the first two. He sounds like more than just the voice this time. Could be wrong, but it's the vibe I get. 

Good, strong album, and I'm looking forward to more listens.

Really enjoying this,its one of those albums that just goes by and before you know is over,love Elegantly Wasted.

I agree with Geoff though that Vega could topple it,from the 2 tracks they have released so far its heading in the right direction.

This gets better every spin. 

Vega will of course be awesome as it always is but for me I suspect NFO will topple it.

But only a madman would predict anything other than top 5. it's great all the way through....a rare thing these days.

Really is great all the way through. 

Quite a collection of music in their three albums....Really cover just about everything in the spectrum between AOR and melodic hard rock and they do it all really well. 

I don't know if it'll be my favorite album this year....I do really, really like Shiraz Lane....but both are basically perfect IMO and really couldn't ask for more.

And still some fantastic stuff coming with Maverick, Station and Midnite City :)

I'm just glad we're getting such awesome new music to listen to :headbanger:

    • 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")
