I was looking for a thread to bump this song and this one was open and I was all like wtf more appropriate thread on earth is there for this song than this thread? Probably my favourite song from the last decade.

 

 

 

I havent heard the White Lion song - is that their one good track

You serious? 'Pride' and 'Main Attraction' have some absolutely first class tunes from that era. Killer stuff.

I have of course heard that White Lion track and yes it must be their best song. Prob a 9/10.

 

My God though the rest of that Main Attraction album is a right average snoozefest. I doubt it would crack 70% as a complete album.

 

Just an FYI, original version of "Broke Heart" was on their "Fight To Survive" disc, which is actually their first album.

 

 

Musically pretty good but vocally pretty weak....Christian is a shadow of his former self.

Agreed! Almost as bad as Issa's vocals.

 

Imagine those 2 doing a duet!!

 

Ugh..... I'd rather not!!

Another dreary song putting the IT world to rights.

 

Zzzzzz

Really? I don't think it sounds like Great White but it's not a bad tune.

I was really hoping that maybe-just-maybe Jon would speak with Richie about a 1987 / 2017 Slippery When Wet 30-year reunion world tour and play SWW front-to-back, plus a greatest hits medley like so many other bands have done the past few years.

 

Could have been great. Could have given their "old" fans one last chance to relive past glory. Could have never happened and I don't think it ever will.

 

They really were awesome back then.

Yes they were. Those first 4 discs were pretty damn good to excellent.

What a waste!

 

 

I just spent the past 75 minutes listening to the New Year's Eve show at Tokyo Dome 1988.

 

What an absolutely awesome band they were once upon a time.

 

yep.

 

A musical and live force in the 80s.

 

Their gig at Hammy Odeon London on SWW tour still resides in my top 10 gigs ever. Purely awesome. 5th row centre as well.

 

 

Saw them open for RATT in either 1984 or 1985, then twice for SWW in 1987 and twice for NJ in 1989. Every single show was awesome!

 

Now-a-days I wouldn't go to a Bon Jovi gig without Richie if I had free front-row seats.

 

"Now-a-days I wouldn't go to a Bon Jovi gig"

I would have left it at that.....

 

Anybody but fucking Shitsburgh.

Typical Ravonettes fanboy...

 

 

Shut up and do what you do best.....

post a shitload of bands only you like!

Anybody but fucking Shitsburgh.

This sounds like an awesome band!!

FRONTBACK - Heart Of A Lion (2017)

Text from Internet Sources

Swedish rockers FRONTBACK are releasing today their new album entitled "Heart Of A Lion", the follow up from the band's catchy debut featured here on the blog when appeared.

The new record continues with the band's appealing brand of melodic upbeat melodic hard rock which at places borders on retro '80s pop rock with a simply killer guitarist in Axel Graneskog.

Female Anlo Front, the band's lead singer, put muscle in every track here and along with the crunchy and heavier guitars make this album a must check for every serious female-fronted hard rock fan out there.

The first three songs, the poppy (yet powerful) "All The Way For Fame", the melodic rocker "Dead Man On The Road" and the hard rocking "Honest" are some cool samples of Frontback's music versatility: kickin', catchy and with the necessary melody enough to make you stand up and turn the volume on.

Other cuts such as "On And On" add more groove to the proceedings while in "Destiny" we are dealing with a killer and more commercial melodic hard rock tune.

Frontback's second album "Heart Of A Lion" is a fine piece of pure and old-school melodic / hard that is really enjoyable from start to finish. There's 10 strong songs, solid musicianship, and while production could be better, the band delivers a truly feel-good vibe all over.

So, if you love upbeat and in-your-face female fronted heavy rock stuff, then "Heart Of A Lion" is a release that you have to check out.

01 - All the Way for Fame
02 - Dead Man on the Road
03 - Honest
04 - Rival Sons
05 - On and On
06 - Liar

I'm glad Atlanta beat Seattle! Still don't like Pete Carroll.

Looks like New England will move on.

Hoping for Green bay to beat Dallas tomorrow afternoon.

Hoping for Kansas City to beat Pittsburgh tomorrow night.

Welcome aboard!!

I hate rock with rap but love old school rap with rock, if that makes sense.

Sounds pretty fucking killer to these ears!!

 

 

 

 

yeah that's one great song , wish the whole album had been like that , 3 quarters of it was garbage

I really enjoy it...its a good fun album.

 

This and Destiny are the best songs...although theres nothing i would really skip.

You wouldn't skip those rap songs? Those are the two that are INSTANT skip for me.

 

RAP is CRAP

Are u talking Pretty Boy Swagger??

 

That song ruuuuuulz.

 

 

The two rap-ish songs both have great choruses... I like them both. This 'Zoo' song does sound quite good too.

 

I can't get to the choruses! Soon as that rap shit starts in the verses, it's a SKIP.

Here's a cool old video clip of the Baltimore band Vaudeville doing the song "Never Say Goodbye"

Hey Kyrpet,

Look what I just got from the band:

Musically pretty good but vocally pretty weak....Christian is a shadow of his former self.

Agreed! Almost as bad as Issa's vocals.

RAP is CRAP

Jap bonus - excellent. This would probably elevate the album into my top 10

 

Christ, this song is better than half the album!

Pretty good.

But I want some rockers!!

Average song...

Very average.

They suck like poop!

+1

 

The best of the 3 so far (which wouldn't be hard imho) but still no interest in this album at all from me,pity cause I always had a spot for Great White...but this aint Great White for me

Sounds more like GW than the other version.

 

By far!!
