AlphaMale Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 Probably more of the same modern garbage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rocker Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 I think he mentioned that it's a "solo" album(Damage Control) and nothing like "Soto". Fingers crossed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 For those without Spotify access there's a snippet here too: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/retribution/id1271719610 Seems like a decent song to me. Not quite what I was hoping for, but not bad either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlphaMale Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 It's okay I guess. Not amazing but pretty solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazysam Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 Seems like a decent song to me. Not quite what I was hoping for, but not bad either. It's okay I guess. Not amazing but pretty solid. Agree with you both, solid tune, but it lacks that killer hook that I've come to expect from a lead single of a JSS album Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rocker Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 Um, better than those 2 "Soto" albums for sure, so solid is correct! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Gold Donors Darkstone Posted August 31, 2017 2023 Gold Donors Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Great stuff, although the pre chorus lets it down slightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rocker Posted September 4, 2017 Report Share Posted September 4, 2017 Jeff Scott Soto Sponsored · · By the kindness and graciousness of Frontiers Records, I am able to share this moment with you…today is my brother Joey’s birthday and it won’t be one he’ll celebrate or remember. As some of you may have read on my social media, Joey suffered a few heart attacks in January this year and has been left in a state where he is only alive with the assistance of machines and medical science. When it 1st happened, the family and I were so distraught yet I needed an outlet to express how much I will miss him so I reached out to my dear friend Paulo Mendonca and asked if he could muster up the soundtrack of a song that I could drop these emotions into. Paulo knew exactly what to do and supplied me with this piece of music that I put my words to…and I called it ‘Song For Joey’. I had other titles in mind but I always loved the Toto song ’Song For Jeff’ that they did for J Porcaro, since I shared the same name, I used the entendre of making sure the world knew who and what this song was about. It was not intended for release, only for myself and my family to share but it dawned on me I needed to share this song with the rest of the world. So on this day, Sept 4, a song not intended to use as a Single or promo for Retribution, I am sharing as a tribute and gift for my brother’s birthday, ‘Song For Joey’, Happy Birthday bro, I miss you!

Geoff Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Life can be a cruel thing. I wasn't aware of this situation and am very sorry to hear it. Very nice, touching tune. A bit weird to say you "like" something so personal to someone for heavy reasons... but I think it's a great tune. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glen Posted September 6, 2017 Report Share Posted September 6, 2017 That background music sounds pretty rocking. Think this might be his heaviest solo album yet. Not surprising given his recent output. Still think it's gonna be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
