I'm not sure how I feel about this. I'll welcome new music from them, no doubt, but they're catalogue is so good, they don't need to release anymore. But, if that's what the boys wanna do, more power to them. I guess I'll be hearing some new stuff next time I see them.

That is cool, especially the DVD for us West Coasters who won't get an opportunity to see them in the flesh.

 

And in regards to the new material effort, I can't fathom the band releasing anything bad. I for one hope they go WAY back and revisit the S/T Cool Kids era style...

Great news! I had been hoping they would decide on doing a new album. I'd also love to see them do something with the Thundergorund demos. There were some very good songs in that group.

You may just get an updated version of a song or two from the "Thunderground demos".... Steve wrote a bunch of those songs and Donnie didn't wanna release stuff that he didn't have a hand in writting. Some pretty good stuff on that one.

Now that the cat is out of the bag it will be interesting to see if they play any of the songs that will be on the new release when I see them a few times within the next couple months. I know Funny Money has been writting "new songs" for a couple years... I just hope that they don't use those songs for the KIX release.

I think these guys are fully capable of making a great KIX record without Donnie Purnell. What do you think Dave? Donnie pretty much wrote 95% of their songs correct? Donnie and outside writers I mean.

That's why I started its own thread. So far, no HHers have confirmed. But my brothers and I are booked.

so still no matters resolved with Donnie at all after all these years, Dave ?

well lookin' forward to this, but if this is in the same style as Fuse/Wire, that's heaven

 

Not sure that there is an effort by either side as far as resolving differences.

I think KIX can release something as good or better than most bands from the era that are still putting new stuff out. It might not be a "Midnight Dynamite" (my fav.) but I would bet it will sound like KIX and be a pretty strong release. I'm 100% sure it will sound like KIX.

 

As far as Donnie writting most of the songs goes... not sure that is totally true.. but Donnies name does appears by the songs in the liner notes.

What do you think the odds are that some of the new-album tracks may be polished up versions of stuff from the vaults? Y'know, like some of the songs from the "Thunderground" bootleg?

Answered that question on page one of the thread...... :whistle:

 

I think one or two might come from the "Thuderground Demo". Steve wrote a bunch of those songs so I'd say the chance is pretty good.

^^ Oh yeah. Duh. Missed that. :homer:

 

Anywhoo, I'm so stoked about this news that I just updated my HubPages article about Kix with info about the new live disc and studio album. Have a look y'all. (Yes, I'm shamelessly pimping for page views. Haha)

haven't read the news again, but is this KIX live DVD taken from the M3 festival live show recently ?

 

No .... This Live CD and DVD have been in the works for a couple of years now. The show is from a place called "Ramshead Live" in Baltimore.

I remember being there when they recorded the show... but I can't remember exactly when it was.

      WFT - Washington Football Team new name is... ???

      By CMGiordano · Posted

      I hope they bring the Redskins name back, personally. Not that I care about especially care about football, but because I worked with a super chill Native American guy who has a DIEHARD Redskins fan. I once asked him, "Hey Andy, uh, isn't that name like, offensive to your people?" I'll never forget the look he gave me. He was dumbfounded. He goes, "Why would I be offended?" and points at the logo, "that's me!"

      Hugo's Voyage - Inception

      By EnJayKay · Posted

      Wahey!  Glad to see this.  I love Hugo Valenti's stuff, I'm sure this will be no different. As long as the production is nothing like Hugo 3: Fire In The Night... Robby Hoffman and Steve Ferlazzo are from Sunshine Jive (fka In The Pink) and Robby currently manages Extreme, so it should sound great.

      Hugo's Voyage - Inception

      By Stefan · Posted

      From Frontiers:   Hailing from New York and Boston, Hugo’s VOYAGE is a dynamic AOR rock band with soaring melodies and anthemic soundscapes. With their irresistible blend of powerful vocals, melodic keyboards, hard-hitting guitars and captivating lyrics, they evoke a nostalgic spirit reminiscent of the legendary band, Journey. No surprise as Hugo’s VOYAGE was formed in 2005 as a Journey tribute band and have been the most successful touring Journey tribute band in the US, attracting a dedicated following of fans who are deeply moved by the music.   Featuring former Valentine and Open Skyz singer Hugo, Robby Hoffman (guitar), Greg Smith (bass), Dana Spellman (drums) and Lance Millard (keyboards)— Hugo’s VOYAGE have now set out on a musical journey of their own, crafting a signature sound of original music on their debut album ‘Inception’ that pays homage to their influences while carving out a unique and vibrant identity. Hugo’s voice, with its incredible range, captivating tone, and unparalleled emotional depth, has the ability to translate personal experiences into timeless melodies and lyrics. ‘Inception’ is a testament to his songwriting prowess and his commitment to creating music that resonates with all people. The compositions explore universal themes of love, hope, loss and self-discovery, accompanied by infectious melodies that linger in the minds of listeners long after the final note fades away. From epic ballads such as “In My Heart” that make hearts swell with emotion to high-octane rockers such as “I’ll Be Around” that can ignite a stadium, the songs possess an uncanny ability to transport audiences to another time and place.  Robby’s guitar playing effortlessly conjures up iconic riffs and blistering solos, creating a magical synergy with the pulsating rhythm section that fuels the band's relentless energy and infectious melodies. While their sound may evoke nostalgia for the golden era of rock, Hugo’s VOYAGE have redefined the boundaries of classic rock, infusing their music with a contemporary edge and a fresh perspective that sets them apart from their peers. Their music possesses a timeless quality, bridging generations and proving that great rock music transcends time. Get ready to embark on a thrilling sonic adventure with Hugo’s VOYAGE as they remind you why the power of music is truly unparalleled. Tracklisting: 1. INCEPTION (instrumental) 2.
