Yeah, that's all I got. I'll show myself out.

Mili please, please go back and listen to your first two albums -- hell, even half of your third album. That's what we want.

I don't particularly mind the third track but yeah, that and the other two are a far cry from vintage Steelheart.

 

I don't quite understand it. He knows what the current music climate is and a classic sounding Steelheart album would have been more than well received by the very demographic he's targeting. I think it's an ego thing, i dunno.

 

Having said that, as an album on it's own merits it's sounding okay. It's just not Steelheart.

Maybe he should have started a new project.

Maybe he can't write any decent songs anymore. :whistle:

Then get someone else to write them.
That's exactly what I was thinking, but then again it's that ego thing. He's an "artist".

To be honest I was never a massive Steelheart fan. Always thought he oversang

Absolutely he oversang on certain tracks.

 

Exhibit A -

 

 

But, it was a perfect fit with the music.

 

Tangled in reins is right up there for me as one the greatest albums in the genre with the debut not too far behind.

I was lucky enough to be around when it was released and this one blew our minds!

Still a nail in the coffin of long haired rockers :(

 

 

 

I quite like that.

 

 

 

My comment was for his hair. First time I've met him like this (in Athens) it was like a cultural shock!

 

The track is ok for my likes, but I prefer him doing rifforama/vocal gymnastics stuff like my favorite from them "Can't Stop Me Loving You"

I've listened to this album 4 or 5 times now and I like it.

I admit I had high expectations based on the first 2 songs and when I heard the full album I was underwhelmed.

But I listened more and I like most tracks a lot.

Normally I'm a ballad fan, but a couple on this album are pretty average for me. <Maybe they are really slow growers.
But then I though the same for I Still Love You by Kiss and I still hate that song, so I guess some songs just don't do it for me when they do for others.

I find it interesting that most here have called HEAT's new album average and then come back after further listens and liked it.
Seems that luxury isn't afforded all bands.

Regardless, the fisrt two songs released are the standouts for me - killer songs.

I think this album is nearing on dreadful. 'Lips of rain' is the only song I will listen to again. Most of the rest is just shit. The first four songs are so incredibly bad I was actually wondering it it was seriously happening. From 'You got me twisted' the album hovers around the 6/10 to 7/10 mark, but the damage is already song. I don't know why he thinks this type of music is where he needs to be right now. I guess if that's where his heart lies, good luck to him, but he's lost me.

    • I wonder what control they have over the releases? That have promoted the BMG individual releases. The 2009 reissues were by original label, EMI. And this boxset seems weird being issued by Cherry Red. And I have not seen the bands social media promote it at all. I wonder if the reason the BMG ones were lacking in the bonus tracks from the previous reissue was EMI holding onto the rights, but have now allowed Cherry Red to release them. I know EMI used to be the distributer for Cherry Red, so they may be more forthcoming with the material.  
    • Yep, cracking indie release of which there are so many but this one is actually really good.
    • I have been a Band Maid fan since their early days (2015) as I really don't mind foreign vocals as long as the music is great, but I always kinda avoided Babymetal as I saw a video of them once and really wasn't impressed with the kiddy vocals, so never gave them another chance. Fast forward to now and on the back of the collab with Electric Callboy I have decided to give them a go. I thought they had a huge discography as they have like 25 albums, but on closer inspection it is only four studio albums and 21 live albums. As I am not a fan of live albums anyway, I decided to buy the four studio albums as they are all quite cheap. Have to say there music is a mixed bag, but overall really enjoying a lot of it. Not sure if I just picked the wrong song to start with, or if it is just that I have adapted more due to getting into a lot of weird and wonderful foreign bands over the last few years, but I am glad I finally gave them a proper go. Have to say, if this song was sung in English I think they would have a lot of fans on here  
    • Babymetal - Metal resistance Babymetal - The other one
    • Enjoyed their last cd "Human Nature" remind me of a mellower Black Stone Cherry, similar to Little Caesar.
    • BlackRain - Hot Rock Time Machine Lee Aaron - Bodyrock
    • Now theres a blast from the past  I'm lucky enough to possess 
    • Another i'm still awaiting the arrival of...same day release/delivery my arse Amazon  Still this is sounding like their best release thus far...they are gaining and getting better...although I did enjoy the last few albums also...but the sound/production from this one is excellent.
    • Still awaiting mine to arrive...should've been on Weds  or according to my order that was the case anyway  
    • Yeah, there is a definite push on the re-releasing of their stuff this last wee while by them for some reason.
