  1. Maybe it's because I've heard GnR a couple thousand times by now, but I much prefer "Fall to Pieces" by Velvet Revolver over "Sweet Child o Mine" at this point in my life.
  2. I'll have to investigate that Durbin. I'd count Striker and Mick Mars among the best metal releases as well now that I think about it.
  3. I wasn’t thrilled with the singles as they came out, other than “The Serpent and the King”, but I’ll be damned if they haven’t grown on me while listening to them as part of the cohesive package that is “Invincible Shield”. I broke down and picked up the Target exclusive to get the three bonus tracks, and I enjoy them too. Overall, a damn fine addition to the JP discography. Is it better than “Firepower“? I’m not there yet, but time will tell. 🤔 This one and Saxon have set the bar pretty high for metal this year. 👍
  4. Evidently, Tichy has joined up with Gene Simmons' solo band, and the Daisies replaced him with Tommy Clufetos who'd helped them out before. Be interesting to see how much more there is to the story....
  5. Been listening to this one on and off since Friday, and must say I'm VERY impressed. This is easily his best solo release in my opinion, and is much more melodic than his work with Creed. This one might just be this years equivalent to Godsmack for me personally i.e. late 90s musicians going in a more melodic direction and it working quite well!
  6. First, I'd recommend starting a YouTube page, uploading your songs there, and hash tagging some similar bands in your description to possibly draw in some new listeners. Second, set up a Bandcamp page. People will be able to listen to and purchase your album there. Third, and this is nitpicky, but you seem to be presenting yourself as melodic rock, when you're closer in sound to classic metal; perhaps look at getting your disc into the hands of people who regularly do metal reviews. Not saying that some folks here might not appreciate your music, but you may be going after the wrong target audience, Just my opinion there...
  7. From the Newman FB page: Newman are very excited to reveal the artwork and the release date for their new album "Colour In Sound". The UK Melodic Rock band was formed back in 1997 by Steve Newman and quickly gained a great reputation after releasing their debut, and subsequent "One Step Closer" albums. A string of high quality releases have ensued throughout the last 20 years insuring a strong and loyal following. Highly respected by fans and fellow musicians alike, this new album will add to the bands great legacy and underline the reason why Newman are considered to be one of the UK's top Melodic Rock artists. The new studio album (Newman's 14th) will be released through AOR BLVD Records on May 24th. A new single and video will be released in the coming weeks, watch this space for further news.
  8. New track "If These Walls Could Talk" featuring Dorothy
  9. So you know what ADV was being paid for his work at Frontiers? Referring to the “pittance of money on offer” implies that you do and feel that it’s an inadequate amount for the tasks performed.
  10. BON JOVI announce: “FOREVER out June 7, available now for pre-order To celebrate, our new song LEGENDARY is out now. #BonJoviForever ❤️🗡️” Tracklist: 1. Legendary 2. We Made It Look Easy 3. Living Proof 4. Waves 5. Seeds 6. Kiss The Bride 7. The People's House 8. Walls of Jericho 9. I Wrote You A Song 10. Living In Paradise 11. My First Guitar 12. Hollow Man
  11. Once again, AI is amazing and kinda scary at the same time. It is pretty surreal to listen and imagine “what if” Bon hadn’t died.
  12. The James Bond Chord @heavyharmonies One of your faves gets a mention around the 5:40 mark.
