Tyketto - Reach

Press release from Frontiers Music:

 

BREAKING NEWS: In celebration of the band’s 25th Anniversary, Frontiers Music Srl is pleased to announce the release of TYKETTO brand new album “Reach” on October 14th.

After five years of relentless touring that included playing on some of the most prestigious stages on the planet, Tyketto took their revitalized energy in to the studio in the spring of 2016. The sessions took place at the legendary Rockfield Studios in Wales (Queen, RUSH, Oasis). Musically the band is truly at the top of their game, with their muscular brand of melodic rock delivered with the finest arrangements and awesome performances.

Lead vocalist Danny Vaughn comments, “Although we only had planned on recording ten songs for REACH, we were so pleased with everything, we decided to keep all twelve songs on the record. We unanimously decided on REACH as the title of the album, as it defines who this band is in 2016. We have a new energy, some incredible new members, and a fresh outlook toward the future. All of us have pushed each other beyond our limits to make what we feel is a pinnacle record in our catalog.”

Drummer and founding member Michael Clayton Arbeeny adds, “Many bands who have been out as long as we have feel they need to fit into a preconceived notion of what their fans expect to hear. Following in the footsteps of icons such as Queen, Led Zeppelin, and Prince, we have decided to expand our musical boundaries and introduce our friends around the world to Tyketto 2016. Rest assured that all the songs on REACH still carry the trademark melodies and choruses our fans have grown to love over the decades. The band is feeling stronger and performing better than ever and we can’t wait to share this music with the world.”

In addition to Vaughn and Arbeeny, the unstoppable 2016 lineup includes Chris Green (guitars and vocals), Ged Rylands (keyboards and vocals) and Chris Childs (bass).

A video for the title track, “Reach,” will be released soon. An 11 country tour to support the album commences in October. Dates below.

Have an eye on this....

 

Liked these guys first couple albums with their debut album probably being one of the best complete "whim" purchases I made back in the day....

 

However, they lost my attention when Vaughn left in the 90's and I've never really went back to them. I didn't care for their most recent album much at all.

 

I'll give this one a fair chance though.

[KarpetRydOFunk]

I'm gonna have to listen to the last album over, and over, and over again to lower my expectations, because I know I'm gonna be disappointed by this. I really hope I'm wrong, though.

[The Rocker]

Love Danny and the first 2 Tyketto's, but this is only him and the drummer so we will have to see if it sounds like Tyketto or a Vaughn album.

[Geoff]

Super low expectations for this one, but I'll hope for the best.

[metalmaniac777]

Well, that single didn't melt me into a puddle of pleasure, but it's certainly more than acceptable.

[tts42572]

New song sadly not doing much for me.

 

I thought it started out great in the opening and was looking for the song to soar....But it kinda lulled me to sleep.

 

I just keep waiting for these guys to do some new music in the style of their first couple releases but it just doesn't seem to happen....at least for me.

 

I'd need to hear much better to get me to buy this album.

[Nightrain]

decent song, maybe a grower

[shamus]

Bombastic intro really grabbed me by the throat and then the song kinda downshifted.

 

Still a really good tune but I wish it was more up tempo like its beginning.

[AlphaMale]

It just doesn't sound like Tyketto to me.

 

None of the recent stuff does. It's the change in rhythm section that makes them sound different.

[Glen]

I like it.

[Darkstone]

Nice. Hopefully that's an example of the lower tempo end of the album.

Looking forward to hearing some up tempo numbers.

I'm optimistic.

[The Rocker]

Found it a little boring

[simo]

Not bad after the first listen. Just a tad too long maybe

[Geoff]

Jeez, it is a tiny, marginal step ahead of his solo stuff, but it's still completely in that zone. To be honest, I just don't dig it. It's just too mellow and bland. Yeah, just too much like his solo stuff, which I hate.

What he said

Ok, well.... It's pretty rockin', that's for sure. Some heavy moments and lots of guitars. Not really what I'd call a traditional Tyketto album though. Only a few classic Tyketto style tracks with the lead track being the best of them all. Love this tune now. A bluesy, hard rock feel to several others.

Well that's a terrible endorsement. Kinda makes me want to not even bother checking it out at all.

[Nightrain]

Still want to give it a go but a wild guess should be 70% top

[DaHun72]

The last one sucked. I do like Danny's solo stuff and he's honed that sound so well that when he tries to do Tyketto it comes across as a bad mashup. Doesn't work for me.

Shame as Don't Come Easy is a classic.

[tts42572]

Another song released. For me, this song is better than the first one but not sure that says much since I didn't like the first one much at all.

 

[kourosofsteel3]

Another boring Frontiers' trademark song...

[The Rocker]

Another song released. For me, this song is better than the first one but not sure that says much since I didn't like the first one much at all.

 

Most definitely better than the first song.

[jondavis]

the band needs to back to whoever wrote forever young and get more songs like that
