I too would like to express my fondness for that particular Scorpions album... whenever I get round to turning in my best of 2007 list to Detritus e-zine, it'll be at the top of my list as well...

 

Where's Blue Charvel's picks? Quit slackin' Pete!! :angry:

Cool lists, guys. I always enjoy seeing them… even if they’re wrong. :P

 

Amazed to see The Poodles rate so high… that one really, really disappointed me personally. To each their own, though. I finally picked up a copy of the Scorpions CD yesterday so I can get a full 100% proper listen when that one arrives. It's definitely a good disc.

Due to my new daughter, I had little chance to really check out alot of the new material out there. I've heard tracks here and there, but I would never rate an album based on 1-2 tracks, so therefore, I didn't include them. Maybe this year I'll get more listening in. :whistle:

That CIRCUS MAXIMUS is a good pic in Dan's list, underrated disc that one. Surprised no-one really rated the TED POLEY or the WILDKARD CD's, two of the best AOR albums of last year IMO....

Backed about Ted Poley. Still my fave HH-related album of the year and surprised to see it not acknowledged as much as I feel it should be. Still amazed by how high The Poodles album rates in so many lists. Stunned, I should say. :)

I was quite shocked to see a Kid Rock CD rated that high. Maybe when the new Candlebox disc comes out, that could be rated as high as well? :whistle:

I never heard the Kid Rock one... kind of interested to hear how it could possibly have rated that high. :)

 

Well, <ahem> because it's a really good CD. :christmas:

 

If the record label doesn't have "All Summer Long" out as a single come about May, they're nuts, as that's one of the catchiest songs I've heard in the last few years. :tumbsup:

Hmmm considering all the love that the latest Scorpions release is getting maybe I need to rethink my original decision to not pick it up. I wasn't impressed by some samples I heard and wrote it off as crap but maybe I'll pick it up and give it a proper listen.......before I write it off as crap :lol:

I was disappointed in the latest Scorpions disc. I'd read that it was a return to form and it starts off that way but about halfway through gets way too acoustic and ballad-heavy for my ears. It's definitely not up to the level of Virgin Killer, Taken By Force or Blackout IMO.

It's just my opinion but I really felt like they did a great job of modernizing their sound but still staying close enough to the Melodic Rock sound that we all love.

    • Also, the chick on the album art looks hot.
    • Holy crap, this sounds awesome! I can't wait for the release!
    • EP, first release is sold out, band not interested getting re pressed, and the album through bandcamp. If on Facebook, they answer very quickly to you enquires.
    • Michael Sweet  A new album is coming. This song represents the heavy side. There is a more melodic side and even a poppier side to this album. The best is yet to come. I can’t wait for you all to hear it. Against all odds, we’ve fought the fight and we’ve finished the race. We are blessed. September can’t come fast enough   Why release this as the first song if there are better songs to come? Surely if you think there are better songs on the album, you release them first to hook people into buying it.  
    • 'Lost City' sampler:    
    • New song 'Power Of The Beast'.    
    • Gotta admit it is better than some of the shit he has put out in recent years (well not that recent) but I just really don't think this style of music suits his vocal style. What he did with Maiden was fantastic, and some of his solo projects from the 80s have some real gems, but once he tried going "modern" it really falls apart, I know he is disabled these days, and more than likely is sitting down in the video, but it also looks like he is having to read the lyrics to the song during filming, which is kinda off putting. Paul isn't a bad guy, but he has made some dumb fucking decisions over the years. All that said, if it appeals to people and he can make some money out of it, more power to him.
    • Paul Di'Anno's Warhorse announce that their self-titled debut album will be released worldwide on July 19th Paul Di'Anno speaking about his new album, "Paul Di'Anno's Warhorse is my first studio project after many years of being away from the studio and not performing. I remember when we announced that we were recording an album in Croatia with completely unknown musicians, many were shocked and no one knew in which direction we would go. Warhorse exudes pure energy and reflects everything I went through while recording the album." Track Listing: 1. Warhorse 2.Get Get Ready 3. Go 4. Stop The War 5. The Doubt Within 6. Here Comes The Night 7. Tequila m 8. Forever Bound 9. Precious 10. Going Home https://pauldianno.co.uk/warhorse/ Watch debut single: Here Comes The Night      
    • 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
