Gotthardline Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 I really like the verses there but the chorus is a bit disappointing on first listen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazysam Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 This second track sounds pretty good to me. Not on the same level as their debut, but I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlphaMale Posted September 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 I like "Rags To Riches"! Can't wait to hear the full album! P.S. It sure beats this similar titled song: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CureTheSane Posted September 22, 2017 Report Share Posted September 22, 2017 Wow, that really is a song that could have been on one of the early albums, until the chorus, which is a bit 'less 80's' When he sings "SHOT to fame" it brings back those warm fuzzies...

lettard Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 Like that too,maybe a little slow paced but still has that B.AD style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grissolm Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 I definitely will check this one out when it comes out. Between this and LA Guns this could be a great ending to the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 I saw this thread and was all like, well where is this mofo. But do I see correctly new release date is 10th of November? Old news? Probably... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazysam Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 Another pretty good track, I'm glad they chose to record an album that has a similar style musically to their first two releases Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaMale Posted November 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2017 Who's looking forward to hearing the new Babylon A.D. album, REVELATION HIGHWAY? We've had the pleasure of listening to it multiple times and it is an ass kicker! If you loved the first two albums, then this will be right up your alley! Coming Nov. 10th on CD/LP/MP3! http://radi.al/BabylonAD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmMaLaYa Posted November 8, 2017 Report Share Posted November 8, 2017 We have to remember it is 2017 and not 1989. Even if the album is good, it will never be on the same level as any of their albums. I won't fault them for sounding different, I just hope it's tolerable. Atleast I can respect them for sounding as much of their sound as possible. I'd be happy enough with that. But we'll see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazysam Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 Listened to this today, and thought it was a pretty good album. As you can tell from the samples, it lacks the polished production of their first two and doesn't have any real standouts like So Savage the Heart. But is solid from first track to last and if you liked their In the Beginning...Persuaders you will probably enjoy this as well. I believe about half the tracks on Revelation Highway were also on that recording. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kourosofsteel3 Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 I really enjoyed it, minus the anemic drum sound, which is still preventing me from ordering the vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterS Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 So wanted to love this one but it's really average. If I wasn't giving it a bit of slack because I love some of their other material so much I'd probably not have given it the 4 or 5 spins I have.

CureTheSane Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 I skipped through a few songs and liked what I heard. Some will likely grab me, but most sounded middle of the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLPRocks Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 I picked it up and enjoyed it. Some good tunes! And I'm glad they're still kickin'....always good to see bands from back in the day still putting out good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted November 16, 2017 Report Share Posted November 16, 2017 Well I'm going to be a bit kinder to them. The album's not going to contend for the top spot of the year, but as good as the first two albums were, neither of them would compete for the top spots in their year of release. Doesn't mean they're not great albums, though. And this one, in my opinion, isn't too far off those first two. I'd genuinely give them a 10/10 for effort and conviction. They sound fired up, and passionate about creating an authentic sounding Babylon AD album. And this would fit nicely in their discography after 'Nothing Sacred.' I'm not wild about the second and third songs (both good, but the least impactful), but the rest are all good, with a few great tunes. 'Tears' and 'Last Time for Love' were two of my favourite from the Persuaders sessions, and they're my favourites here. But 'Crash and burn,' 'Rags to riches,' 'Saturday night,' and the great closer, 'Don't tell me tonight' - you can't really go wrong here. Don't get me wrong, it's not the album of the year, but it's a seriously good return to form and I'm extremely pleased with the end product. I think it would be unreasonable to expect any better than this. Top effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
