Hi everybody, my band (Ricky Shindig) just released a cover version of Journey's Separate Ways. Before we were Ricky Shindig, three of us were in a cover band together. As a little "turn back time" we decided to record a cover song while we slowly start working on some new material. We chose 'Separate Ways' because this song is an essential part of every Ricky Shindig party and one of the catchiest songs ever written. We are looking forward to hearing any kind of feedback

Sad to hear, I really liked his voice in this genre. Elvenking is not really my cup of tea.

I really like this album - not every song on it but there are some surprisingly catchy melodies all over. Personally I think the singer adds great energy to the mix. It reminds me of the earlier Bai Bang ("closer to you")

I really liked their debut. Last album was okay musicwise but the new singer sounded as if he had never listened to rock music before. This new album has a few good songs but also too many uninteresting hooks. There are moments where I think, the vocalist sounds much better than on the last album and then there are moments as in "Sold your soul" (if I remember correctly) where he's completely out of time in the first verse and just doesn't sound cool. On top of that he can't say "th". That makes me kinda nervous

The song is about the band's early days and they're wearing wigs looking like their hair back then. The drummer is the only one who wasn't there from the start so they just made him look a bit younger (with the cap). I really like the band and the song and I think this is one of the best bands Germany has to offer. Though their songs are never surprising.

I think it's the other way around. Still it's a very hooky album. I often thought a song doesn't necessarily have to end at 3:00 minutes. The endings are too abrupt sometimes.

Last summer we won a slot as the opening act for a well known german Schlager-singer. Yesterday we released a reworked song from our debut album "The Hungry Kind" together with a video from that concert. It was an unforgettable experience and considering that the audience was not there for rock music, it worked out quite well. We are always thankful for feedback

It was the dangerous curves album, not exactly pink, though... Thank you very much

Nope, sadly not....

Hi all! For quite a while I'm searching for an album. I sadly forgot the bandname and the album title. I think it was released 2 or 3 years ago (?) The genre was Melodic Hard Rock and I think the cover was pink with a beach theming or somehow I connected them with a beach... I couldn't find them in the Frontiers records catalogue (it was not Cruzh's Tropical Thunder). I know that there was a thread about them here but as I don't remember their name, I cannot find anything. I know it's not a lot information but does anybody have an idea?

I really don't like the singer. He is lacking some coolness. It sometimes sounds forced/too high for him, in one of the previews he was absolutely out of time. His english pronounciation doesn't sound great (I'm not a native speaker myself but I can't stand a d-sound instead of a th) Their sound and songwriting is pretty good. Loved the first album.

I love "around the world in a day". I think it's a surprising idea to have 3 different choruses in one song. "Come and get it" seems to be the weakest song in my opinion. Especially because the vocals aren't always in time (that was a huge problem on the last album. This time I could hear it in only a few songs). "I belong to you" is another song that I love. It's just a very plain good mood song but with nice melodies and choirs. I like that they always have songs that are very different from the usual AOR stuff. The first three songs are very good also. This album, to me, is better than their last one. Zenith is still my favourite. I don't think they ever play live. I ansolutely don't understand their strategy.

This is lacking some power and depth. For example some choirs in the chorus would add some width.

Is this the worst location for a video like that they could get? Looks like the drummer's living room. Music sounds pretty cheap in my opinion.

They don't even have a facebook account. I think they could be bigger than they are. I usually really their music and the singer is great. Looking forward to it.
