2. James Labrie - Impermanent Resonance

 

Massive surprises were James Labrie and Heaven's Basement which I both love....great albums.

 

 

I love really getting something out of these kinds of threads. Thanks for the heads up, mate. Hadn't even heard about the James Labrie album but I checked it out based on your list. I was a little nervous after that Lighthouse Orchestra group you had high on your list last year, which was not for me, but holy shit, this Labrie album is a monster.

 

Always loved the dude's voice and hold the Winter Rose disc dearly. Great to hear him return to (albeit much, MUCH heavier) more melodic and catchy stuff. All songs sneaking in around the 4min mark, with some deadset killers on here. Great modern melodic metal disc. Love it. Thanks for the tip!!!

As of right now, my favorite melodic rock album of year is:

 

Maragold- s/t

 

Of course, things can change but this is just a great album imo. I've always enjoyed Greg Howe's guitar playing and Meghan's vocals are the perfect fit. Awesome stuff!

I was super surprised as his previous solo efforts did little for me.

Ummm...no its only a 'great year' if your actually a fan of the bands who have released something new this year.If your not then its been a disappointing and abysmal year,which in my book it has.

What bands are you a fan of? If u are looking for metal the new Edens Curse is great

Right now I'd say Wet 'Rise Up' but that could change by the end of the year. I need the new Eden's Curse, Reckless Love and several others and I just got the new Alter Bridge and I love it so that could jump to the top of the list. While there have been many very good albums there haven't been as many great ones IMO as say there was in 2010 or other recent years but still there have been many very good ones.

    • New song 'No Angel'.    
    • As long as they stick with the stuff I enjoy I don't mind...ill enjoy what I enjoy and they can release stuff that others may enjoy...win win for them. As Captain H pointed out other labels have already done this...they don't wanna be pigeonholed as one genre I suppose.
    • I get the feeling that they wanna sign a lot of bands but they don't wanna be seen signing to the "hair metal" label, so this makes 100% sense. I saw on here recently a post from a few months back discussing how weird it was for hair metal/aor bands to be signed to Napalm Records, and I kinda get that as it is known as an extreme metal label, but it has branched out so much over the years, same as Spinefarm. There will always be those who view things black and white (fans and bands) when it comes to things like record labels, so save on confusion and create sister labels. I could imagine them shifting their heavier stuff to a new label as well down the line. I mean lets face it, the main label is named after a Journey album, so you can kinda see why some bands would avoid them.
    • Anything created to promote our music is good news and Skunk Anansie are quality. 
    • FRONTIERS EXPANSION, NEW LABEL IMPRINT AND MAJOR SIGNING NEWS! A special message from Serafino Perugino, President of Frontiers Label Group: Dear friends, I am thrilled to announce the creation of Frontiers Label Group, which will umbrella Frontiers Music Srl and further labels, the first of which is our new imprint FLG. This expansion allows us to diversify and strengthen our position in the rock and metal landscape, while continuing to uphold the values that have guided us since the beginning. While Frontiers Music Srl remains home to melodic rock, hard rock, and metal artists, FLG will be dedicated to pushing the boundaries of rock and alternative music. This bold step marks our continued evolution as a leader in the rock and metal genres, and it is with immense pride that we welcome rock icons Skunk Anansie to the FLG family as the first signing to our new imprint. The signing of Skunk Anansie is a meaningful moment in the history of Frontiers, an important landmark in our development as one of the leading international rock and metal labels. This is only the beginning! We are excited to bring more news and announcements in the coming months as we continue to grow and expand Frontiers Label Group, our imprints and our roster of incredible artists. Thank you for your continued support as we embark on this exciting new journey together! Long Live Rock n’ Roll!! Serafino
