The worst thing is, I am not sensing any desire or plan at all to do any songs either. Recruiting every musician on the planet seems a far bigger priority than, I dunno, making some fucking goddamn music.

All I read was that he will be busy recording for two other bands, working with a studio, and that he is also building a new drum studio. So the obvious question, is why on earth has he signed on with this "band" and when they hell would he actually contribute to it? Oh, I know. No one ever will, so he's like everyone else in the "band."

 

I kind of wish they'd just fuck off now...

Yep, there's actually scheduled to be 18 bassists by the end of the month, and 46 drummers by the end of the year. You need these kinds of numbers when you record songs that don't exist...

I'm really hoping this turns out to be the album of the year, just to make us eat our own words. But I highly doubt it.

He has his moments. They're very few, and even further between, but he still has them.

      I am not the biggest fan of live albums, in fact I generally could not give a flying fuck about them and even as a collector I only buy live albums if they are either really cheap, have a bonus studio track or two on them, they come with a live DVD or blu ray or a band really only has one live album. This though is pretty much an essential purchase as I really wanna hear how Erilk handles the classics.

      That's not the video. It's just an audio track. Pretty much all bands do that now.

      Winding Road - Fill My Sails

      By Stefan · Posted

      'Fill My Sails' out October 18th. From Pride & Joy Music: Winding Road was formed in 2018 by Jan Hedlund (Coastline) and Magnus Åkerlund (Blender). The two musicians have played in numerous bands and played loads of different genres touring all over Sweden before. Their true love however was Melodic Rock and AOR. First, Winding Road recruited singer Jonas Tyskagen (Domino Drive) and began writing songs with the intention to make an album, i.e. their self-titled debut which was released in March 2021 on AOR Heaven. Now they are back with Pride & Joy Music as their new label and the follow-up release entitled “Fill My Sails” which once again includes 11 songs of pure melodic rock/AOR, again produced, mixed and mastered by Magnus Åkerlund. “Fill My Sails” also features some great guest musicians like Thomas Larsson (Glenn Hughes) and Fredrik Folkare (Unleashed).

      After a few more listens...I actually think this cover is over-sung. The last chorus is completely over the top. Robbie is a tremendous singer but he got too theatrical on this one IMO.
