Gunner(formerly Gunner Sixx) - Desire

[heaven&hell]

Not sure if there's a thread on these guys or not but they released a disc in 2011 on Retrospect and it appears that they've dropped the Sixx from their name and are now just Gunner. This is a pretty damn good Glam Hard Rock cd with more of a Metal type vocalist that makes them kind of unique.

Yeah, I thought the debut was a real nice hard rock disc - showed a heap of promise. But the vocals were definitely the weak link. Hoping the new CD is a bit more polished and the vocals better. I do certainly look forward to it as they're a good band.

His voice took me by surprise too as it would fit more in a band like Banshee.

Obviously I dig these guys too , some real promise with them. These guys and watchmen are the top 2 bands in Argentina in my opinion.

Are they still on your label?

We are discussing the second album but they really wanted too much upfront to record it.

I'm just curious but what does a band like that need to record an album these days?

[Retrospect Records]

About 10 grand. 1,000 per song.

About 10 grand. 1,000 per song.

 

I would assume that this dollar amount doesn't include any publishing costs, but just straight studio, engineering, production costs and then factor in pressing costs as well?

[Retrospect Records]

yes. Costs me about $800-900 to press 1,000 discs , depending on inserts.
