Captain Howdy

Downloaded a digital copy from Amazon and already played it a few times. Really like it. Hopefully it will lead to a full album. Here is some of the info he posted on Instagram Hi everyone!♥️🥁🥁🥁🥁 I've thought about writing this post A LOT! There are so many people I want to thank for making this moment happen. This is deifinitely my number 1 moment of my career as a musician, composer, producer and a SINGER. My virginity is lost now in so many ways, haha... 😃 The list of people involved in my career is way too long to deal in one post, so I will write more about that later on... For now I just want to say that this is my vision of Rock n' Roll. This is how I see the world at the moment. My partners in crime on this song are @jalleverne and @ollianthonanttila . We lit up the darkness! 👏🏼 my 6 year old demo was totally reborn! @jykasirainen / @countryjyka played amazing bass tracks and sang some killer backing vocals. He also recorded my drumming at MAXX FACTORY studio, @mikkoanterolahtonen played hell of a guitar tracks as he always does. And me and Olli A. Did the rest, at his studio and at my place. You guys are a goup of extremely good people with good energy, talent and passion for music. Thank you guys♥️ This means a lot to me. I hope you can all feel it. This story will go on!👏🏼 For now, Dance Thru Darkness! 💥

Hessu is on vocals. By all accounts this was a demo he did six years ago, but has finally re-recorded the full version. Certainly has a Reckless Love vibe to it.

Erik announced on FB today: Erik Grönwall Pre-order of my biography is now available in Swedish! I will sign this bad boy when you pre-order. Get it here: https://www.adlibris.com/.../signerad-power---musiken... Sure there will be an English version at some point

While I hate Eminem this is the only song of his I have in my random playlist

And it makes sense that Dino is with the band as vocally he is often compared to a cross between Cov and Dio.

Sure he is a member of Whitesnake at the moment

Yeah, as someone who went through similar to him a year later, I fully support his decision. I will always be under the docs as well, but I think I have one big benefit over Erik in that my stem cell transplant used my own cells, where as I believe he had donor cells which probably means he might have to take immune suppressents which I don't. And even considering all that, I still have to be very careful which is why I no longer work full time, and even if I get slightly ill I am supposed to get checked out. Can't imagine the stress he has put his system under by touring.

I think Lzzy has the right chops as a temp replacement as her cover of Slave proves, but I can't see a lot of female vocalists being able to pull off a lot of their stuff due to how varied it is. Maybe it's time to bite the bullet and reunite with Seb and Rob for one last hurrah.... yeah, I am delusional, I know.

He did a Q&A a little while ago where he said moving to the USA was not gonna happen due to needing to be home in Sweden for healthcare, something he would not be able to afford in the USA, so realistically speaking it was always going to be difficult for him to stay with them long term with regards to touring. Recording is easy enough remotely, but you can't tour remotely. He shot his shot, and got to spend time as a member of one of his fave bands, so nobody can begrudge him that.

Not only that, but how can anybody actually like that shit and post it intentionally for other "fans"?

Ah, funny you should mention that Keel cover, Alexx Michael of Shameless posted a cover of that song yesterday by a female artist that is absolutely atrocious. I was trying for the life of me to remember who did the original as all I could remember was LA Guns did a cover of it. I beg forgivness for posting this, but its so horrible that I think everyone needs to hear it

This is one of those weird ones where an artist went an entirely different route musically. Rose Tattoo released the album Beats from a single drum in 1986 which was a total change from their AC/DC style rock sound to a smoother, more AOR/pop rock sound. The album was re-released three years later as an Angry Anderson solo album after this song was famously used in 1988 as the wedding song in Aussie soap opera, Neighbours and actually scored Angry a huge hit in the UK singles chart.

The video or the lyrics @whiplash1972wrote?

That's quite a common thing to do when a song, in the rare instances it is done, that the artist mentions themselves. Also when artists change pronouns. (Can you imagine a male artist singing "When i saw him standing there" ) One of the most obvious is Fight for your right by the Beastie Boys. The line "Ah mom you're just jealous wer'e the Beastie Boys". Teenage Casket Company change it to TCC, Ballbreaker change it to Ballbreaker Boys but my fave is Trixter who change it to "Ah mom you're just jealous cause daddy likes boys"

My neighbours knocked on my door at 3am this morning, which I thought was a bit inconsiderate. Luckily I was already awake playing Invincible shield at full volume.
