Kim_Hp Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Wow, those are some creative song titles! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 lol. Everything about this band (and Andy Rock) is very generic, bit i'll be damned if they're not making some damn good music in the process. Really looking forward to the new disc, and stoked it's due so soon already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightrain Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 well I hope they're not trapped into LAST AUTUMN'S DREAM circle.. change the song title, change the lyric, and play the same chord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melodicrockoz Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 Love the sounding of Wild Rose' s sophomore album so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 I know these guys are not exactly setting the melodic rock world alight, but jeez I love this stuff. I really do. Yeah it's basic and quite safe, but just perfectly suited to my needs. I would LOVE to see these guys pick up an awesome producer to give the songs the edge they'd need to maybe give them a bit more exposure. But even as it is, I love this stuff. Can't wait for the new CD. Yeah it sounds like the debut and the Andy Rock disc, but if it ain't broke... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Err it was broke last time I listened. Lol. Dull, safe, non exciting. Any of the above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Oh wow I just listened to those samples above. Whilst trying to stay awake, I was almost sick in my mouth. Jeez what a bunch of cheesy clap trap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glen Posted February 6, 2013 Report Share Posted February 6, 2013 Not at all - just waiting for some decent AOR in 2013 - not cringeworthy slush like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Haha, more super wimpy lyrics, but it's just great melodic rock. Love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Not a bad tune at all. I am seriously hoping that the rest of the album will be strong, as the last album was bog average and quite disappointing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melodicrockoz Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 IMHO this Wild Rose album could well be one of the albums of the year for many a folk who'd give it a fair listening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaMale Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 Not bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightrain Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 One thing that's obvious if you listen to this album is they sure know how to make a great and lovely songs but the amateurish rhythm section definitely could kill the appetite. Tracks like 'Alone', 'I Can't Stop Loving You', 'Dream On', 'I Won't Forget You', or 'Not A Day Goes By' are greatly crafted AOR tracks, and perhaps only 'Awake' which I think is a bit dull for a ballad, but sometimes you hear a sloppy drum fill or a very average solo guitar, luckily the vocal is quite okay. Production is very nice and since I like most of the songs here, I must give credits to the songs though replay value is dragged down because it's a bit samey and probably better if you can spin it once in a while because it wasn't varied much. Based on two spins, this is rated quite high for me, but to see if the songs holds, probably will see how it goes after 5-6 more months. 85% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glen Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 You guys are forcing me to listen to this but I have a feeling I'm going to regret it lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 I love it, to ne honest. For me, it's the 3rd best album of the year so far, which is not saying much. A; beacuse it's only March and B; only WET and Vega so far have been anything to get too excited about. I think 85% will be a fair score for this. I've given it an initial 89% but won't be surprised to see it drop a little. Totally agree about the drum fills and guitar, and even the keys are very basic too. And the lyrics. No doubt it's all basic stuff for sure, but it's just done so well. One thing, though, is that the production really isn't bad at all. Played it back to back with WET and was surprised that this didn't sound too weak afterwards. Yeah it sounded weaker, but yeah, not too bad. It's just good, harmless, nice stuff.

Nightrain Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 Still love it! Been pushed down after a string of better releases, but holding strong in my top 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim_Hp Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 I respect what these guys are trying to do, and the new singer has a good AOR voice, but doing the same song 10 times over encompassing every tired cliche of the genre at every turn just doesn't cut it for me. More variety and improved lyrics is what this band needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I know I shouldn't but I still love it too. One of the most listenable albums of the year, still, to me. It is so safe... but so good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
