  1. This song should get a video and/or single treatment IMO!
  2. German hard rockers THE NEW ROSES (The New Roses) are back! On October 04, 2024, they will release their brand new studio album "Attracted To Danger"! Today you can get a first glimpse by checking out the first advance single "When You Fall In Love". Listen here: "Attracted To Danger" tracklist: 01. When You Fall In Love 02. Natural Born Vagabonds 03. Attracted To Danger 04. Four Wheels 05. Bring The Thunder 06. This Heart 07. Hold Me Up (feat. Gill Montgomery) 08. Spirit Of A Rebel 09. Rockin' In The Free World 10. Whiskey In The Backseat https://www.facebook.com/share/p/mkyKm9uJQhGkhujP/
  3. Not much has been said about this one. Anybody checking it out? Absolutely loving this album. I had super high expectations which often leads to a let down but they still delivered. I'm having a hard time deciding if I like this album or Not The End of the Road more but I think as of now I might give a tiny edge to the new one. And that's some high praise as Not The End of the Road might've been my favorite album over the past 5 years or so. That could be because of the excitement of a new album though so we'll see what happens after more time listening. I think the difference for me is this new one has a better pace and kind of keeps the momentum going right up until the last track when it eases in for a landing with the ballad. Whereas Not The End of The Road had Good Life with the guest vocals and Gone for Good that both sort of broke up the momentum a bit in that album before also ending with a ballad. Either way, both fantastic albums. They've had quite a run with their past few albums and for me are doing catchy melodic hard rock as well as anybody right now.
  4. Nice! I was very lukewarm on part I but so far have liked all 3 songs from Part 2.
  5. Got my Japan CD a couple days early. Every bit as good as I was hoping for! Couple little detours with songs like Iconic and Not A Wise Man but I even like those songs for a little variety. The rest is basically full of bangers like the singles so far. Hard picking stand out tracks as almost all are standouts Maverick had my top spot for a couple weeks but no more!
  6. Liked the previous couple songs but Nervous misses the mark for me. I feel like it needed to pick up and explode a bit in the middle but it never does.
  7. As we approach the midpoint of the year this week, I'd say my top 5 as of now would be: 1) Maverick 2) Collateral 3) Nestor 4) Sebastian Bach 5) Judas Priest I'm really enjoying Maverick and feel like that's far and away been my favorite so far this year . I'd say Collateral has been my clear #2. But I feel like my other spots could probably all be interchanged depending on my mood. We'll see what the 2nd half brings. I'm pretty sure Kissin' Dynamite is going to slide in there somewhere
  8. New tune sounds good! These guys have been quiet for awhile so hopefully more new stuff and an album is on the way.
  9. Kind of my thoughts too. He just sang on End Machine and now tossing him on something else. And still working on new music in main band. This sounds ok but it's a probably pass for me as I've grown weary of these kinds of projects.
  10. I see them both in my spotify?! Remixes sound good and better than originals to me!
  11. Fantastic album imo! Not sure yet where it'll rank in their discography but can already say for certain I like it way more than their last album. And it definitely has a chance to be my favorite release of theirs. Need to see how it settles and let the excitement of a new album wear off a bit. Heavy, melodic, catchy....some nice variety in songs....and the overall sound/mix really sounds great and is enhancing these songs for me. Listen to this on some good speakers or headphones! I'd say my early highlights are Puppet Show, Sweet Surrender, Daywalker, Evenfall, Bloody Mary & Time. I dig the callback stuff going on in Daywalker....harkens back a little bit to Paint By Numbers IMO. Easily my favorite album so far this year. We'll see if Kissin Dynamite can top it in a couple weeks!
  12. There's some stuff on that album I do like a lot.....Cold Star Dancer (the song) is probably my 2nd favorite song they've done behind Got It Bad. I also really like Kiss of Fire, Goodbye and Seize the Day. I've just struggled getting into some of the other songs on it for some reason though. I think maybe it was maybe missing some catchy/memorable choruses in spots. I did like the slightly more modern and heavier, bass-driven direction they started going in on that album with many songs and seems like that's the direction this new album will go based upon the songs so far. Well see. Really looking forward to this and Kissin' Dynamite in the near future!
  13. Really looking forward to this album dropping this week! Have loved the 3 singles so far. I kind of feel like this band sort of peaked for me with Big Red album. Then Cold Star Dancer, while still pretty decent, was a little bit of a step down from what had come before it and Ethereality was a further step down. Don't get me wrong, both of those albums still had some good moments but songs and/or weaker production/mix kind of put those albums well behind the first two for me. Based upon the 3 new songs so far though and the snippet of Puppet Show I've heard on their FB page, it's sounding to me like they might have dialed things in and gotten back on track with this new one. And this time the production does sound great and is standing out as a positive to me. Have seen a few reviews and all have been pretty good so far. Here's one....
  14. I agree. Ultimately, I think bands become sort of what they "really" want to become and move toward the "mean" so to speak. Leppard always said that they wanted to be like Queen in that they weren't constrained by having to make certain types of songs. It was probably that desire to go outside the box that allowed Pyromania and Hysteria to happen in the first place. And it's probably what's caused them to jump around with different style songs throughout the years. I think it would've happened that way regardless. Who knows though. Maybe Steve would've influenced things a little bit as his Led Zep and Jimmy Page influences might've trickled in more. And who knows what could've happened if Mutt stuck around for a couple more albums too....he was probably the most important piece in the puzzle. They were already changing lanes though even with Steve and Mutt in the fold. I think they've still shown they're capable of doing more classic sounding stuff if they want to with songs like Promises, Paper Sun, Dangerous, Take What You Want, etc being a few examples. Either way, I'm just happy they've kept it going for nearly 50 years. It has to be tough staying inspired and coming up with new song ideas for that long so that's kind of why I think the course they took would've naturally happened either way.
  15. Excellent! I dig these guys! Heavy, melodic, hooks...good stuff. Have liked all their recent tunes.
