Both those songs sound killer to me. 'Christina' being a real show stopper. These guys remind me of Miss Behaviour's only good album mixed with Care Of Night.

Spinning this right now, mein gott! Still constantly playing track 2! :wub::wub::wub:

Wow, as in 'Nothing To Lose?' For me, that's the only weak song on the album. Seriously, easily the weakest song, imo. How odd. :huhsign:

It's one of the more unusual tracks but I really like that one. Great part half way through....reminds me a bit of Valentine.

there's a mass of cheese going on here and an abundance of inspiro lyrics. ;)

but that said I do really like the album and the singer sounds great. Just the right side of accent .

Press release:

A MESSAGE FROM Creye:

“As some of you may have noticed, we have had some new, talented people on stage with us for these past few gigs. Well, now it is time to shed some light on what's going on for you guys.

We are very happy to announce that August Rauer is our new lead vocalist. August has excelled on and off stage with us, both in Stockholm and Nottingham. To have a singer with the qualities that August possesses as a permanent member of the band is an honor, to say the least.

Our new keyboard player is the virtuoso Joel Selsfors. Joel made his debut on stage with Creye in Malmö this past summer. Joel is an extremely talented musician in more genres than we can count and we are so happy to have him as a full-time member of Creye.

We are, of course, very sad to see Robin Jidhed and Joel Rönning depart. Their decisions to leave the band were made due to personal reasons, independent from one another. We have known about their decision to leave for a little bit of time now, but we did not want to make an official statement until everything was completely sorted and the future was crystal clear. We want to thank Robin and Joel from the bottom of our hearts for their time in Creye and there are absolutely no hard feelings between us and them.

Last, but certainly not least, we want to thank YOU - the fans. We've been having the time of our lives in Malmö, Stockholm, and Nottingham thanks to you. Without your support, nothing would be possible. Creye is going forward stronger than ever, and we are so happy that you're all with us on this journey....straight to the top!"

CREYE IS:
August Rauer - vocals
Andreas Gullstrand - lead guitar
Fredrik Joakimsson - rhythm guitar
Joel Selsfors - keyboards
Gustaf Örsta - bass
Arvid Filipsson - drums

Jeezus wept. It's going to be a struggle for these guys to make a dent if they keep trading lead singers. Curious to hear how the new guy sounds, but it's a bummer. Jnr Jidhed did a fine job on this album.

Alex's voice was so good on the ep and much better than Jidhed, but the cd is good and just hope the :new" singer is good. And 3 singers one cd is not a good start!

New singer sounds a little like Richard Marx on "Hazard".  I'm not a fan of acoustic versions of songs for the most part, so this gets a "meh" from me but I'm encouraged that they're working on new material.

First single should never be an acoustic (slower) song in my opinion. This a Meh for me.

Another acoustic version of an old song, this time 'Never Too Late'. Are they planning an acoustic album?

 

 

I was talking?(messaging) to the band or a member about this the other day, trying to be polite/nice about it. Saying it's time for "NEW" music, LOL. he/They said it's coming!!!

    • So finally got around to listening to the album (still waiting for CD to arrive but at least a digital version came with the order). This is defo the best album he has released since leaving Skid Row, and is better than anything released by his former band (even the Erik fronted album). I liked his solo stuff, but he was always trying too hard to be modern and heavy, so there were very few actual stand out tracks. On here though it really is more of a throwback. While not quite classic Skid Row, it is probably as close as we will ever get, kinda sitting somewhere sonically between the first two albums. The only downside for me is the fact there is only one ballad and it doesn't even come close to the two that featured on Angel Down. Seb took a long break between this and his previous album, and I think in that time he has taken time to reevaluate what he wants to do musically. As stated earlier, even the album cover is a throwback with it being a painting his father started decades ago. Hopefully any future releases will stick to this style, and not return to the style used on his last few albums.
    • Not sure, but sounds like christian lyrics to me. And could'nt find it on HH yet. 25 years ago I would have loved this, today I'm atheist and do not listen anymore to such... explicit lyrics.  
    • Spider of Destiny-Frank Zappa
    • I got it for free when I bought the Dirty Americans album. It's a cool little sampler.
    • Ha, I remember them. Good stuff.
    • Better than I expected, honestly, as GUN was never my thing.
    • Agree. Have been a fan of Halestorm and Lzzy....she's fantastic. That said though, this Skid Row thing just feels "off" to me.  She sounds fine but I think it's simply that hearing a female voice do the songs just doesn't seem right after listening to the originals for so long.   I much prefer hearing Lzzy in Halestorm.  I'd rather see her concentrate on that and also concentrate on doing new music that's more in line with their first 2 albums!
    • From memory it was recorded after the original pledge release of Beautiful things and was added as a bonus song when it became available to the general public.
