Yeah, I dig it. Very 80's Scandi sound. I would definitely like to hear more.

[melodicrockoz]

very promising stuff, wanna hear more

[Nightrain]

great song there, lookin' forward to hear the full album

[The Rocker]

Sounds good. Can't wait to hear more.

[zacharyamelie]

Similar to H.E.A.T (but with a much more pronounced Scandi accent in the vocals) I'm in!!!

 

If it's from Sweden and talked about on here, I'm usually very excited, this is no exception.

[Stefan]

They've signed to Frontiers Records and will be releasing an album later this year.

 

Great song!

I'd definitely have to echo my above comments about it sounding very typically 80's scandi style. Pretty strong accent, but sounds like it'll be pretty good.

 

Sounds like 'Scratch and Bite' / 'Pleasure Principle' era Treat before they became truly magnificent.

Yeah, good song. Not brilliant, especially as there's no guitar solo (just an extra loud bit of the main riff where the solo should be) but I like this more than Treat.

Wow.

 

That's just ridiculous, mate.

Yeah, but James is a bit ridiculous, so it's not out of character. He's been very vocal about his disdain towards Treat.

[glam_junkie]

Saw these guys live recently. Awesome band!

[The Rocker]

Another H.E.A.T style band, I like it!

[embrock]

 

Sounds like a winner! The chorus could be a little stronger imo, but I'm definately gonna buy this album.

Very nice melodic rock. In a perfect world the accent wouldn't be so strong, but it is very good.

I've listened to Treat again and again. The make a good sound, the production is good, they play well, etc, but I just don't hear good songs. I don't get it, it's a real mystery to me how the band are so revered in these pages, as I think the tunes are so unremarkable. Clearly I'm in a very tiny minority here and I don't hate the band or anything, I just don't think they are any better than thousands of other bands out there.

 

I'm happy to accept I'm in the wrong if that helps.

Love it. Have we spent the earlier half of this thread saying how much these guys sound like early HEAT? 'Cause they do.

 

That pre-chorus is the most perfect piece of music sex I've heard in an age!
