Vagabond Bones

 

Hung Over But Still Hanging In

 

 

 

HELIX: Two New Songs Available For Streaming - Oct. 11, 2009

 

Canadian hard rockers HELIX will release their new album, "Vagabond Bones", in Canada on November 17 via Universal/Fontana. Singer Brian Vollmer has been collaborating with Sean Kelly (CRASH KELLY) on material for the CD, which was mixed by engineer Aaron Murray.

 

Two songs from the album — "Vagabond Bones" and "Hung Over But Still Hanging In" — are available for streaming in the YouTube clips below. Vollmer says, "The soundtrack for 'Hung Over' [in the YouTube clip below] is not the finished master track. The mastered version is the one that has Russ 'Killer Dwarf' Russell singing a duet with me on the track."

 

"Vagabond Bones" tentative track listing (not final sequence):

 

01. The Animal Inside (Won't Be Denied)

02. Go Hard or Go Home

03. Vagabond Bones

04. Monday Morning Meltdown

05. When The Bitter's Got The Better Of You

06. Hung Over But Still Hanging In

07. Best Mistake I Never Made

08. Make 'Em Dance

09. Jack It Up

 

Vollmer's track-by-track description of "Vagabond Bones" can be found on the band's official web site.

The track "Vagabond Bones" is classic sounding Helix. The video was pretty darn funny too with the dancing skeleton. The second track didn't do much for me. But it's definitely piqued my interest to hear the rest of the album.

You can listen to the whole thing on www.planethelix.com The song "Best Mistake I Never Made" is just awesome! The rest of the album is solid. I'd think about picking it up in a trade or something someday, but I still haven't rushed out to buy it.

Thanks Chris. I think you told me that already but I keep forgetting to check out samples. :anon:

Like their last few releases I have no interest in picking this up. The band just can't come anywhere close to what they had in the 80's/early 90's which is very unfortunate. I just haven't liked any of their recent stuff. That being said, I would be the first in line to a show if they ever get anywhere near my neck of the woods.

I think you should rethink this Rick. I have this album and it's worth picking up. And we will take in a Helix concert together, yes, yes we will :beerbang:

      Yeah its pretty good,was expecting a few melodic rock numbers though(maybe just based on the Whitesnake link)...and I  ain't a fan of the hardcore screaming he does in a few tracks

      Atack - Nine Lives

      By Stefan · Posted

      Album out November 24th. From Escape Music: Atack’s founder member and lead guitarist Keith Atack has a long pedigree in the rock music scene. He grew up during the sixties and was influenced from an early age by bands like The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Yardbirds and then on to Jimmy Page and Ritchie Blackmore. He has also toured with many pop acts like Bonnie Tyler, Rick Astley and many others. He has a rock / funk / soul style as well as a jazz and blues influence.  He is joined by band members that also have strong roots in the rock scene such as Bob Richards on drums who has rubbed shoulders with members of bands like Iron Maiden, Survivor, Asia and Shy. Bassist Chris Childs is well respected and is the bass player with UK stalwarts “Thunder/Lonerider/Tyketto”, he is an ideal addition to the line-up along with seasoned vocalist Lee Small (Shy/Phenomena/Lionheart and many more). Finishing off the quintet is Nick Foley whose keyboard prowess is ever present throughout the album. The sound of the Hammond for which he is known gives the whole album a feel of Deep Purple and Rainbow with a true classic British Rock sound. “Nine Lives” is an exciting addition to the escape music roster and available in limited edition vinyl and CD formats, something very much to look forward to. CD tracklist: 01 Dead Man’s Boots (5:25)  02 Nine Lives (4:36)  03 The Seven Seas (5:27)  04 Remember or forget (5:11)  05 Like a twister blowing through (4:26)  06 New Addiction (4:22)  07Stone cold (3:26)  08 Poison Water (4:31)  09 This house (4:42)  10 The end of the world (4:30) 11 Lie to me Bonus track for the CD

      i've seen their name mentioned somewhere before but never heard them. This is a good mix of mellow clean vocal and heavy and i really like 'From The Inside' especially out of these 2. This is definitely more of the sort of stuff I am listening to nowadays compared to the soft and fluffy of yore, so will defo check out more.
