  5. Here's some more info I gathered from internet sources: Always fronted by riotous singer / songwriter Kory Clarke, WARRIOR SOUL are releasing today "Back On The Lash", their new studio album. While nobody can really blame Clarke for dropping out of the fight every few years to mop up the blood and give his embattled liver a brief respite from further punishment, now is probably the most crucial moment this band have ever had. He always warned about a fascist, warmongering USA, and now he’s got one. If rock ’n’ roll’s angriest man was ever gonna rally the troops and bring truth to power, the time is now. So this better be some album. And it is.Perhaps the most focused blast-cannon of steely-eyed sleazy-metal since WARRIOR SOUL 91’s Drugs, God And The New Republic, "Back On The Lash" is not a political screed by any means, it is simply and inexorably rock as f@ck. Heavier than a hammer to the skull. Sleazier than Times Square in the summer of ‘77. Badder than ol’ King Kong. Meaner than a junkyard dog. I think that’s the trick here: hook the kids with the hard stuff and then recruit ‘em for ongoing culture war.The title track, which comes complete with the opening line: “last night’s hard to remember, but I am sure I was a smash” hides it’s message that it is tricky to adjust to real life from the road with its nihilistic thought “crash, crash, let’s get smashed.” 'I Get Fucked Up' would in other hands be something a little airheaded, but here, with Clarke sneering that he drinks to avoid 'the fascist 9/11 lies' (he also wages war on the “biggest dicks on Wall St” and “Country Club assholes”) it is clear that it is a little more than just another punky rock song. It is that too, of course, but that’s always been the way with the best of Clarke’s work – 'The Wasteland' in 1991 was a wonderful example of this – and there are many more. The mid-paced 'Further Decay' is a chance for reflection, a warning of the perils elsewhere in the lyrics perhaps, that said, 'Thrill Seeker' is everything you’d want and more. As snotty as you like, it sees everyone dropping E’s and “sleeping with whores” as often as they please. 'Going Broke' has a kind of Sabbath vibe about it. The insistent urgency, the fuzzy licks. It just ensures there are no let ups here. 'Black Out' is another strong cut here, almost an updated version of Love / Hate’s classic “Blackout In The Red Room.” One of the best, though, is 'I Got The Rock'. Clarke gives his war stories from the road – and in the way he delivers them would make Lemmy proud as he sips on a JD from wherever he is. Like the last song here says, “that’s how we roll.”“Back On The Lash” is the best WARRIOR SOUL record in Lord knows how long. It is the best thing Kory Clarke has been involved in since the Space Age Playboys record in 1994. It is also why we would respectfully suggest that he’s wrong on the second point. You can save rock 'n roll. If records like this exist, that is.

  11. http://sleazeroxx.com/tnt-announce-new-lead-vocalist-baol-bardot-bulsara/ TNT announce new lead vocalist Baol Bardot Bulsara Norwegian heavy metal rockers TNT have announced their new and fourth lead vocalist will be Spain based singer Baol Bardot Bulsara. TNT‘s previous lead vocalists as per Wikipedia consist of Dag Ingebrigtsen (1982–1984, 2008, 2012), Tony Harnell (1984–1992, 1996–2006, 2012, 2013–2015, 2016-2017) and Tony Mills (2006-2013). Bulsara is replacing Harnell who left TNT for the third time back in October 2017. The following message was posted in part on TNT‘s Facebook page yesterday: “This will be a new chapter for TNT and we wish Baol Bardot Bulsarawelcome as our new singer. A big thank you to all the people that welcomed him in Oslo Spektrum on Wednesday and for supporting us. We look forward to a new year with gigs and a new album coming up soon!” Balsara‘s “Biography” on his Facebook page states in part (with Google translation from Spanish to English and slight edits): “The idea of forming a rock band was always present, but never materialized; in those times bassists and drummers were scarce and we always lacked one of the two (or both). So I used to go in and out of bands already made, for not being still. One day (although it was night, and in a heavy gambling den, to make matters worse) I read on a wall that singers were sought for the choral ensemble of Jesus Christ Superstar, and, without having heard a musical in my life, I went to the casting. And they go and catch me. And not only that, but they make me cover all the papers that occur to them (except María Magdalena, I still have not understood why …). The fact is that I fell in love with that work, and it was around this time, Around the age of 20, when without even thinking about it, I began to take the performing arts seriously…. Since then, from different formations and tours, the tribute band Led Zeppelin, No Quarter Band, has been a constant until recently. Then, the musical We Will Rock You, by Queen, ‘Il Divo‘ 4ever, Once Upon a Time the Musical, The Jungle Book, Teparatres, Forever King Of Pop, The Spirit of Broadway, RENT, Those Crazy Ghosts, Rawckett….” TNT performing “Everyone’s A Star” with singer Baol Bardot Bulsara at Oslo Spectrum on November 22, 2017:
  12. Here's a pretty good article on Mr. Trunk: http://thegreatsouthernbrainfart.com/?p=1214
  13. Oh, we in the US know Trunk very well. He's the absolute worst representation of Hard Rock and Metal as a host. He's the ultimate know-nothing who thinks he knows it all. And the biggest POSER in the US by far.
