OD - changing the name to One Desire

[All Nights Reserved]

Sounds like Giant to me which is basically good cause I loved Giant. But... as for me 'Hurt' is their best song and the other ones are just good. Which is not bad of course but it could be much better.

[The Rocker]

3 for 3!!!

[The Rocker]

This is basically the same chorus as Ammunition's 'Wrecking Crew' but with much better lyrics !!

 

I know which song I prefer.

I really think Wrecking Crew is a good song, with some whistling in it. Who F'in cares?!

[tts42572]

Caved in and pre-ordered this after reading a couple reviews.

 

Basically, it sounds like a pretty varied album from what I've read from AOR to modern rock to hard rock.

 

I liked Hurt a lot...And also like Apologize quite a bit. I'm still only lukewarm on Whenever I'm Dreaming....It's okay.

 

Really though...all these songs seem well produced with plenty of hooks, harmonies ,etc.

 

It may sit on the back burner for a little bit when it comes out though because I know I'll be diving into Eclipse first.

Ha ha that emoji wasnt meant as a reference to whistling!! I just prefer this song.

 

The choruses are virtually identical tho.

Jeez, I can see a similarity, but overall, it's a very different song to the 'Wrecking Crew' tune. One is distinctly better than the other, and I'll leave something that obvious to the listener.

Of course it is...i was talking about the chorus melody which is identical

[Nightrain]

Curious to hear and see how the whole album sum up, could be a contender to the top 5, at least in the first half of 2017

[tts42572]

Have heard this album and really not doing much for me at all. It really has a pretty scandi, modern poppy feel throughout to me.

 

I like Hurt and liked Apologize....But didn't care much for Whenever I'm Dreaming.

 

There's a couple other songs that are okay but I find myself basically slowly checking out on this after the first 4 songs.

 

I'm also struggling a little with the vocals...Bit accented or something...I don't know.

 

I'm sure this will appeal to many but just not hitting a sweet spot for me.

 

Maybe I'm too caught up in Tokyo Motor Fist and Eclipse at the moment

[lettard]

I like it,I mean really like it,if your're a fan of H.E.A.T or indeed the aforementioned Eclipse whats not to like,it may not be as good as those others but its definitely worth taking it on its own merits and not comparing it to a couple of the best bands to emerge over the last few years...the track Love Injection is worth the entrance alone...imho

[Glen]

I love the first 3 tracks.

 

Again is this released?? I thought it was 24.03?

[lettard]

I got the japan release from a uk seller on ebay this morning in the post so it was awaiting me when I got home from work although having the bonus track as acoustic version of the previous track I found strange,but I'm in the same boat as you Glen with regards to the other upcoming release that everyone else seems to have already heard...have to wait until at least next Friday

Lemme see...H.E.A.T and Eclipse are two of my top five all-time bands - so, yeah, this one should be right up my alley.

[tts42572]

Sorry...But for me this is nowhere in the same league as Eclipse or the past couple H.e.a.t albums. I can maybe see some comparisons to early H.e.a.t but not even sure about that.

 

For me this is closer to something like the Cruzh release last year...Only with more modern production and maybe a little more pop feel.

I know you like heavier but to me the 3 songs so far are miles better than Cruzh and offer more variarion in Style than Eclipse.

There's definitely variation in the album.

 

I've tried it a couple more times and while listening the last time I think a better comparison is probably to Degreed. Although, I think Degreed feels to me like it has a bit more edge than this though maybe due to Robin's gritty vocals.

 

The album has grown on me a little...Apologize is probably my favorite song on it....Hurt is good....Love Injection is pretty catchy and Turn Back Time is pretty good. I'm still struggling a bit with the second half of the album though and just not finding much in the second half that's exciting me.

 

It's put together well and I'm sure it will appeal to many. It's just not quite clicking into place for me yet.

[Glen]

 

Very nice ballad and brilliant solo......reminds me of the ballads on The Defiants album from last year

 

I think I'm gonna love this album.

[simo]

Have heard this album and really not doing much for me at all. It really has a pretty scandi, modern poppy feel throughout to me.

I feel the same and know exactly what you mean

 

Only difference being that I haven't heard the full album but only 3 tracks that were released. Also agree that it could be compared to Cruzh a little

I have to admit I'm warming to the album a little bit.

 

Really there are only two songs that I just don't like at all....Falling Apart and Straight Through Heart are have both turned into automatic skips for me.

 

On the other hand though, I really like Hurt, Apologize and Love Injection is a pretty infectious song even if it does start out pretty poppy. I also don't mind Turn Back Time and I've also warmed up to Whenever I'm Dreaming and like the song that follows it Do You Believe.

 

I do wish there were maybe one or two heavier numbers in addition to Buried Alive to give the album a little more edge. That one song is definitely comparable to Eclipse.

 

It's sort of a strange album and I think that's why I've struggled warming up to it. It's really sorta all over the place....There's poppy almost One Direction moments in some songs and then they turn around and hit you with some great heavier riffs in some other spots. There really are a lot of great hooks and harmonies though and it is a well put together album.

 

I still think these guys sound like a more mainstream version of Degreed.

 

I have to laugh a little. I had this playing with my 16 year old daughter in the car yesterday and she normally doesn't care much for what I listen to and she was commented...."This sounds pretty good" and she was singing Love Injection sitting in the living room last night. She told me I had to put that song on her phone.

 

I'd still rate Tokyo Motor Fist and Eclipse way above this album but it's a pretty good debut effort.

That's all I need to hear

 

I'll let you know my thoughts on Friday when its actually released.

[mrbandwidth]

IMO, the best comparison is Sturm Und Drang (is the same singer obviously, but I also find this 'pop-metal' style similar, but more polished here).

 

Anyway, I like it a lot. And 'Straight Through The Heart' is a highlight for me (not claiming my opinion is right, just that works for me).

[AlphaMale]

Very nice album.

[Nightrain]

yeah love it, i also hear some modern elements here, the Cruzh and Degreed comparison are also spot on, but overall they lean into more Scandi melodic rock rather than modern pop, but overall as predicted, a good contender for the top spot in the first half, and maybe in the top 10 by the end of year.

 

oh and i think 'Whenever I'm Dreaming' is such a beautiful song but not much love for 'Apologize' and 'Straight Through The Heart'

'Turn Back Time' and 'Falling Apart' are huge too
