Interesting....Not sure if I'll be buying this or not though. One hesitation I have is that all the banter will probably be in Swedish just like H.E.A.T's Live At Sweden Rock Festival release and that just annoys me a bit since I don't know what's being said. I know there are subtitles or whatever but still annoys me. I just know I much prefer listening to H.E.A.T'S Live In London release and haven't pulled out the Live at Sweden Rock CD's to listen since the first time through them. If I pick up anything it will probably just be the Blu Ray as I've never been able to see Eclipse live as of yet so it would be nice to check out a show.

Not too bad but probably would be third if I were ranking the 3 tunes out so far. I again like some of the edgier riffage going on in spots. Not quite as tough of a guitar sound as Time For a Miracle but still pretty good. Will be interesting to see if they carry that throughout the album. Personally, I think that's why the debut never really stuck with me....Just wasn't beefy enough or something. Will be keeping eyes on this.

The only comparison to H.E.A.T I can see is sort of in the style of music in that it's kinda 80's inspired melodic rock. I know that's a pretty general statement lol. I get some tiny feelings of the early H.E.A.T albums a little from this but agree H.E.A.T isn't a great comparison. I think for me that One Desire is the comparison that mostly keeps jumping in my head. Parts of W.e.t's debut album is another that this keeps reminding me of for some reason. Either way, excellent release

They must've done some joggling of the order of this release somewhere late in the process. I've got a digital download that has a completely different order than my actual CD. The running order on my digital download has Breakout, Free My Mind, Friends, Give Me all Your Love, Lift Me Up, Lost, Love Of My Life, The One, Madeline, Night After Night, Take Me To Your Heart. And my CD has Love Of My Life, Lost, Friends, Night After Night, Free My Mind, Give Me All Your Love, Lift Me Up, The One, Breakout, Madeline, Take Me To Your Heart. I don't know which one I prefer lol. I like that Lost moved up on the CD version since I feel like that's the best song on the album, but not sure I like that they put Night By Night and Free My Mind right next to each other as they're both kinda similar mid-tempo type songs so I might've split those up a bit. At the end of the day, I guess it doesn't matter much. Either way, digging the CD

Listened to this....Digging it. And agree....I'd say my top 3 songs in some order would be Lost, Lift Me Up and The One. For me, this is an album that picks up steam as it goes. It starts out with 2-3 pretty good tunes but then really picks up steam in the middle. What stands out here to me is the guitar work, keys and overall musicianship.....Just sounds great and is just excellent guitar driven, melodic rock. Not sure who it reminds me of...Maybe some combination of Treat, One Desire, H..E.A.T, Midnite City type stuff. Also kinda reminds me some of the W.e.t debut album style-wise for some reason. Easily among my favorites this year.

Breaking The Silence - H.E.A.T

Hopefully some sort of Live package with a CD/Blu Ray like Pretty Maids did with their recent Japan release. I'd even hazard a guess as to it being the Oct 27, 2019 show in Milan, Italy since it seems like Frontiers often captures those Italian shows....but that's just a blind guess. Either way, I'd probably pick this up if it's a decent package.

Nice surprise! My Amazon order is showing arrival 8/11-8/26 so no telling when it'll show up for me. I'd change it but I used reward points so getting it for nothing....So guess I'll deal. Looking forward to this one though and hopefully will get to listen to it soon online or something.

Pretty much my thoughts.... I liked some of their debut CD....basically 3-4 songs. I don't know about this one. It's okay but not sure it's something I'd run out and buy.

Absolutely terrible. Really wonder why they'd even bother with this.

For me, think that's my favorite Perfect Plan tune I've heard to date. Love the riffs and heavier vibe. Their debut album was decent enough but what I wanted was a bit more edge and this tune adds some.

Easy enough to ignore the threads and I generally try to stay out of it as best I can. What I have seen seems like it's all been respectful but granted I haven't paid very close attention either. I do have to say that the last 3-4 months have probably been the most frustrating time I can remember during my lifetime in terms of what's going on in our world so I surely get the need to vent a bit. And it hasn't helped that there hasn't been much to discuss in terms of music the past few months with few releases, no shows, etc. I haven't been bothered by the discussions though. Easy enough to just head to the AOR/Hard Rock section of the forum

That's how I felt initially. No doubt those first 4 track are the meat of the album. But have to say the second half has grown on me a bit. I kinda like some of the variety going on in that second half. That Lions tune in the middle definitely is a momentum killer though. That song needed to pick up the tempo or something as it moved along. I know they tried to make an epic type tune but for me it just goes nowhere and never really gets off the ground. I like the album a lot overall though. Definitely appreciate the additional effort they put into improving the sound on this over the debut. Heck, I wish Def Leppard would make an album these days that sounds like this

This is out in Japan....gave it a listen. First 4 songs instant ear candy......great stuff and exactly what I want from these guys. For me it takes a dip with the title track Lions....that one just not doing much at all for me and could see myself skipping that one going forward. Second half not too bad....Need to give it more of a listen. Not quite as instant as the first 3-4 songs and the title track kinda swayed my attention but still sounding pretty good. Lots of Def Leppard vibes in this with harmonies and riffs....almost feels like the best album Def Leppard never made or something lol. Really though, I wish Steve Brown would work with the Leppard guys on their new music.....This is the way I want a Def Leppard album to sound. Also have to say the production definitely sounds much better than the debut so thumbs up on that.

Bon Jovi - Wild Is The Wind was the first to pop in my head also....One of my favorite Bon Jovi songs....should've been a bigger tune. Warrant Mr Rainmaker also high on my list. Great tune. Def Leppard - Scar is another....Probably the best tune on the X album that got totally ignored. And for a more current choice, Def Leppard - Wings Of An Angel. Probably my favorite song on their last album that didn't get any single treatment and hasn't been played live.

Just thought I'd bump this as I've been listening to this EP and really digging it. The closest comparison of something recent in my head that this reminds me of is the Black Swan album. But for me, this is better than that....Just feels more melodic and catchy to my ears. My favorite tune is probably Daze Of Delirium...melodic goodness All is excellent though

Truth on that second sentence! I have to say that after repeated listens this tune is really growing on me. In listening to the samples also, it sounds like this tune and maybe Free My Mind are the closest things to ballads on the album....And they're closer to more mid-tempoish songs IMO. Not that I have anything against ballads but kinda nice sometimes having an album without any. Already know I'm going to dig this album after these 2 tunes and the samples.

Felt the same initially. But the more I listen, the more I like it. I dig the over the top production....has kind of a Def Leppard feel to it. It's kinda different than anything on the recent album and I can see why it was left off as Rise is a better tune and has the same sort of message. Nice surprise getting some new music from them. And even a somewhat average tune from them is better than a lot of other bands best IMO.....But I know i'm a fanboy

My thought too. Not a bad tune but after hearing samples, there are definitely many better ones on the album. Agree...guitar work is what makes this one. Still think ill enjoy this album.

New tune!

Pretty good tune that seems to fall in line with the debut album. Eyes on this but IDK if it'll be a purchase for me or not.

I'll check it out but TBH the first album didn't age very well for me. I liked it at first but put it away fairly quickly and never had much desire to listen to it after putting it on the shelf. Did have a few good tunes though. I think I'm more interested in Arctic Rain than this...

Saw on Facebook that the band was to have a new album titled Actions That Have Consequences out July 31st but they've left the label they signed with. I also saw they're now planning to release it independently. Enjoyed the first album and looking forward to the next. A post on Facebook said it should be out earlier than 7/31 at least in digital form. Not sure about the plan for physical CD's. Just thought I'd start a thread for it. Dear all, we're sad to announce that our July release Dave Friday Band - Actions That Have Consequences won't be released and that the band informed us about cancellation of their agreement with us today almost 1 month after it's release date (funny they cancelled it via message here yesterday afternoon although they posted about the release 12hours prior now and cancelation email 3 hours after their announcement of release through us [FIGURE OUT]). Furthermore we won't have any further collaboration with the band nor it's members in the future. Our Best Regards, Lions Pride Music. www.tiny.cc/lionspridemusic

Only really three releases so far that I'd even rank in my top 10....So I guess it's only a top 3 for me to this point. And that's pretty sad considering 2 of them are only EP's. HEAT - HEAT II Shiraz Lane - Vibration EP Wicked Smile - Delirium EP For me it's been the worst 6 months in a long time for new releases. I don't know if I'm just grumpy from everything that's gone on the past few months or what but just not much exciting me and hasn't been much coming out. I've tried a lot of what's mentioned but nothing else has really grabbed me. I did like bits of Black Swan and almost bought that one but guess I didn't quite like it enough. I expected to love One Desire but it was a big letdown for me. I've spent most of the past few months really diving into and rediscovering older releases that I haven't listened to in a long time. Expecting things to pick up in the second half of the year though beginning with Tokyo Motor Fist in a couple weeks. Also looking forward to Arctic Rain, Maverick, maybe Midnite City and Shiraz Lane in the fall. And hopefully we see some other surprises as a result of bands having a lot more time on their hands during this Covid business.
