Sounds better than the last Tigertailz album

This one sounds interesting, a few different influences in the music.  Still on the fence, but the more I listen to the tracks the more I enjoy them.

Dee's last solo album had some solid tunes on it, but this new track isn't doing anything for me

They're having a merch blowout sale (including the physical copy) on their homepage.

I just ordered the CD.

Thanks for sharing the info Stefan

I listened to this during my workday today and thought it sounded pretty good, my initial favorites are Star, Get It On, and Falling Away.  I'll give it another spin over the weekend. 

Another solid tune from this group.  I think they were scheduled to perform at MRF Scandanavia this weekend.

First album was pretty good, but this new song isn't doing much for me

Sounds different than I expected, but not bad.  For what it's worth, Ted said on his site that this isn't a solo album, more of a side project.  A follow up to his last solo release, Beyond The Fade, should be out next year though.

I agree with Geoff on the two stand out tracks "Stay Away From the Dark" and "This Love Will Last Forever".  The rest isn't bad, but also isn't very memorable.  Decent AOR album with a slight funk/R&B flavor on a few tracks.

This new track is catchy and has far more of a pop feel than the songs I've heard.  I recall them being heavier and more theatrical with a much darker lyrical theme like Mercyful Fate/King Diamond.   

Projects with multiple singers can be inconsistent and that is the case with this one.  Most of the songs are pretty good, but as Mr.AOR mentioned, it would have been better had Dennis Ward sung on all tracks. 

Good tune

New lyric video for a previously unreleased track from Into the Great Unknown sessions

New video

Kane Roberts posted a few updates on his FB page over the last few days regarding his new album.  Unfortunately, no release date is mentioned...

I have no more tracks to do on this CD for Frontiers but I wanted to see the progress on our first mix....Def keeping my fingers off the tracks now. Resisting the temptation to re-sing this or re-play that. Plan A is to deliver the Masters to Frontiers before the 26th.  I'm getting CD graphics and credits lined up as well. Keep you all posted.

Glad to see another positive comment for this one.  The album hasn't gotten much attention here, but I think it is worth checking out as well.

Wow! That's impressive. Well done mate.

Thanks, this is one of the few places I can use my recollections about 80's & 90's hard rock.  If I can help someone out a bit all the better.

I assume you haven't seen many of these types of bands then, mate? Because I understand your line or reason here, but without exception, each one of these types of bands match their album production with their live sound... and this even includes outdoor festivals... but is noticeably present indoors. It's 2018 and shit can and should sound amazing, both on album and live. 

While I agree with your overall premise about quality studio productions, I'm with Glen on a band like Blessthefall not being able to reproduce their sound live.  Just about everything has an artificial aspect to it on the studio recording.  I am not saying they sound bad live it just isn't going to sound like the album even if they pump in some additional sound and effects.   

That song would be "Back To You" by the band Tour De Force off their album World on Fire

New video...catchy tune, but moves the bar even further from the early material and that raw, heavier sound

Gave this a try, first couple tracks in and I thought it had potential.  However,  starting with track 4 things got a bit patchy for me.  Thankfully, the last two tracks salvaged things. So,  I figure I can make a solid EP with the tracks I enjoyed.
