Yep, me, too! I hear there's a 4 Disc version planned. The album with bonus tracks, a live album, a DVD of the live album, and a DVD of the making of the DVD. Can't wait!!

No track list or cover art yet?

 

Not yet...shouldn't be very long.

They are actually planning a 5 disc box set which also includes a disc of instrumental versions so us fans can butcher their songs to no end.

 

Get your facts straight Mr. Funk!

 

On a more serious note....I can't wait just to hear the lead off single. Winter in my part of Canada is long and shitty, I need some new tunes to warm me up and give me hope that summer ain't that far off.

[Glen]

Well im buying it on day one and will just download any bonus tracks. Yous can keep your live / dvd / instr shit ;-)

Fear not...the album is awesome

Expectations met. Even if it took a few listens to really bury itself deep into my brain. Now I can't get it out!

You've heard it?? No fair!!!!

 

Now I am REALLY anticipating this release!!!

[Kim_Hp]

The title track sounds great!

[Kim_Hp]

Okay, I just listened to the whole thing.
I won't say too much, except that those who preffered their harder side in the past will have a field day with this one. But don't worry: there's enough melodic rock bliss on here to safisfy even the most hardened of AOR fans.

Melodicrock is right...expectations met. BIG TIME.

[davecrash69]

For those who have already heard the album -

 

On the first few initial listens does it better Address The Nation?!

[melodicrock]

It's Address The Nation Part 2. Not a repeat though....just more great songs in the same vein.

2 killer ballads and 8 melodic rockers.

[Kim_Hp]

My promo version has 12 tracks

'Tearing Down The Walls' will be H.E.A.T's first release without guitarist Dave Dalone, who decided to leave the band in July of 2013 to pursue new musical challenges.

 

I didn't know Dalone left the band.

Yeah it was a bit of a chock when the news broke. Dave has always been one of the main creative forces in the band.

I guess two guitars is an advantage in a live situation but other than that, they seem to get on just fine without him.
