Probably the best album about vampires is Creeper's latest Sanguivore (2023). It's like a gock, punk, metal band doing Jim Steinman and I love it (except for a couple of songs). A concept album telling the love story of 2 vampires. Cry To Heaven - great rocker The Ballad of Spook & Mercy - like an evil nursery rhyme Lovers Led Astray - Cool rocker Teenage Sacrifice - Another cool rocker More Than Death - One of my favourite ballads of 2023 If you dig those songs their last EP American Noir (2021) is similar stylistically and well worth checking out. Their output before that is not really for me.

What about the follow up Holter - Vlad The Impaler? Jorn is out but same vibe, band (dude from Wig Wam) and very good, but falls a bit short of Swing of Death.

Ken rubs me the wrong way before this lip sync shit. Just found him creepy... mainly with the hot chicks singing on his channel. In terms of the lip sync issue. That Pegasus video is pretty damning and that guy presents it all in a very scientific and methodical manner - not someone out to get him. Ken's response video comes across as smug, defensive and patronising. Also, we get to hear that same fkn note he sings in every video he does. Good luck to him and to everyone else. They'll get lots of views and life goes on and tbh I could give less of a shit... except I find him creepy and he lip syncs sometimes.

Unfortunately have lost interest in this band since Urban Breed left

Hey Cap, if you get stuck and really want these CDs I can sort you out. I am in Melbourne. Purchase and shipping from bandcamp to me is (in $AU) $48.39 for BOTH CDs (39.39 + 9 shipping). I can mail it to you as a large letter (needs to be thin so cases removed, repackaged into sleeves and cardboard either side) well protected in an envelope for $14.30. That's the actual shipping cost for a large letter up to 500 grams. Even better there is a prepaid envelope I could purchase up to 250g which should be OK for $11.75. So pretty much ~AU $60 all up. The Dangerous Curves costs at Bandcamp are spot on - but they're parcel prices due to thickness. Looks like they've added $1.40 for envelope cost.

Anyone in Oz been able to pick this one up? Davy's store doesn't ship to Australia

Devastating news but to my ears the last couple of albums, whilst good lost the magic of the first few... So the band probably needed a shake up anyway? I hope the band grab a new singer and release a new album under a different name... That's always my preference when a key member leaves. Sure the band name might lose momentum but the fans know what's going on (is there a general music public anymore that will be left in the cold?) and it also leave the door open for a reformation if it when the time is right.

Wow, not sure what's worse, the song or the clip. Both are like a parody.

Loved their debut album from 2018 but it didn't get much love round these parts. Loving this new song. New album coming out on Frontiers on March 15th.

I'll check it out but have no expectations, haven't liked an album by them since These Days... although there is the odd cracker of a song.

I've gone off Robbie the past few albums but interested to hear your thoughts on this one.

Sounds Ok. Anyone else pick it up and have thoughts after living with it for a while?

I do like this band, especially the Young and Dangerous album. Singer is great

Life has been pretty busy and it's hard to find time for this hobby but when I find myself jumping around sites and channels..kind of like scrolling through movies on a streaming channel without finding what I want. So any good webpages or blog sites besides here? Any good YouTube channels? Anything else? Any good apps? I stopped visiting melodicrock.com years ago, really miss aorheaven (just to peruse catalog and new releases and newsletter). Some sites like sleazeroxx I find you only need to visit a few times a year. In regards to YouTube sometimes I really enjoy shit on there busy most of the time it's a bit wordy and long. Snyder is ok I guess but I do find him mildly irritating. I like sea of tranquility but the music range covered might be a bit too broad for me personally. I find both channels have too much content. Its amazing that they can pump it out. However, there's kots more misses than hits in terms of topics for me. I find I have to scroll their list of vids for something interesting or watch tidbits of a video to get a bit I want (and suffer through heaps of ads in the process).

Never been a huge fan of the band and last few albums have been pretty shit. Funnily and I don't know why but I'm kinda looking forward to this one.
