Nice. Always look forward to new Shinedown. 👍

Video for “ Heaven Tonight”

Me like. I’m getting a bit of a Whitesnake vibe here. 
 

When I saw the title of the thread, I thought “John” was being used to mean a prostitutes customer. A never ending John’s dream would be a dude’s ongoing sexual fantasy. 
 

Anyway, music is strong, vocals are weak. Pass.

Finally! That’s what I’ve been wanting to hear! 
 

If I was a betting man, I’d say that’s a leftover from the Firepower sessions. 

I’m surprised there’s not more of a buzz about these guys here on the board. “Tell Me” and “ Take on Me” (no, those aren’t White Lion and A-Ha cover songs) are both solid AOR/melodic rock songs. The vocals on the verses could use a little more “umph”, but the choruses are quite tasty. 

Love the music here, and then those vocals start. It’s like if King Diamond (who I enjoy listening to when I’m in the right mood) just had his tonsils ripped out and was trying to sing. 
 

John says he is still in Confess as well. 
This was posted on the Confess FB page about an hour ago:

TO CLARIFY SOME STUFF!
 
Yes, i've joined forces with Crashdiet, which feels very exciting indeed. With that being said, I’m still very much a part of confess.
Confess is my high school Rock'n roll band that i sang in for the past 15 years and i have no intentions of leaving or changing that.
We're currently working on new music and hopefully have something new to show you guys pretty soon.

“My Icarian Flight” featuring the one and only ADV 😜

From their FB page

The time has come to enter the next chapter in the CRASHDÏET book of madness.
After much soul-searching, Gabriel has decided to leave the band to focus on other things in life.

We are shaken by his decision, but we respectfully wish him all the best in his future endeavors and thank him for the years he worked with us and his contribution to the last two studio albums.

Taking over the vocal duties will be none other than John Elliot. A good friend and excellent singer from the band Confess! He has the drive and the hunger to lead us into a promising future. 

We also welcome Martin's brother, Michael, as the band's permanent drummer! He has stepped in for Eric on countless shows since 2011 and is a natural fit for us. Now that Peter is back and full of energy, we can proudly announce the lineup of CRASHDÏET in 2024:

John Elliot
Martin Sweet
Peter London
Michael Sweet

See you on the long and winding road!
//CRASHDÏET

After six remarkable years with CRASHDÏET I find myself at the end of this path, times change and it's time for me to change direction towards new challenges. I wanna thank all of you for the love, support, and memories that will forever be kept in the chamber of my pounding heart. I Love u all❤️

Goodbyes are never easy, especially this one. A big thanks to my brothers in Crashdiet for this crazy and wonderful ride! 
We’ve shared a lot of great moments and some not as great as well (Hehe) and I will always be grateful that you gave me this opportunity❤️

 I can assure you that the band will continue to deliver kick-ass shows and release great tunes! Especially with John Elliot behind the mic! Give him a well-deserved welcome and give the guys the support they need through these times of change! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
// Gabriel

First single/video "Man in the Mirror"

This may be a little confusing for fans, as there was already a 3 song EP titled "Fear No Evil"  released back in 2022, and yep, the above song was on it. Not sure why they  didn't just give it a new title?  I suppose "Lion of Judah" and the title track "Fear No Evil" will be on here as well. No track listing available yet that I can find.  Run time is listed as 44 minutes on the Amazon pre-order page.

New video for 'Killer Of The Night'.

 

 

Liked the first single “Silent Winter” just fine, but this, THIS is what I wanna hear from these guys. It’s Dokkenesque material with Girish on vocals.

Yeah, it's been a slow start to 2024 for me as well, with Saxon (excellent!), Russell/Guns (very good IMO), and Revolution Saints (decent, with 2-3 really good tunes) being my only purchases so far (Striker & Notorious are on the way actually), but there are  a few coming up that I'm looking forward to...

Honeymoon Suite - Alive

Blackberry Smoke - Be Right Here

Crazy Lixx - Two Shots at Glory

Art of Anarchy - Let There Be Anarchy

Ace Frehley - 10,000 Volts

Mick Mars - The Other Side of Mars

Judas Priest - Invincible Shield

Bruce Dickinson - The Mandrake Project 

Accept - Humanoid

Stryper and Bon Jovi will have new ones later this year as well. Really looking forward to the Stryper, and I'm sure I'll wind up picking up the new Bon Jovi even if I don't like it myself, as the wife will probably want a copy anyway...
