We won't know til we hear the whole album  or atleast a few more songs

Bring The House Down, The song is taken from the band's forthcoming full-length album, "You Can't Kill My Rock 'N' Roll", which is due on September 21

 

Reminds me a lot of Slade's Run Run Away, which is a great song.

Jesus. you guys are being kind. that's a really average track imo. Esp for HSS who were perfection across Dreamin, Beg & Split. 

I agree with this. I liked the first single but the new one I don't think is that good. Hopefully the rest of the CD is better.

A lot of people here have unrealistic expectations.

We've all been through it when bands change it up and move in another direction.

Remember when Slang copped a whole lot of crap?
Everyone loves Race by Pseudo Echo, but the core 'pop' fans of that band would have been pissed. Probably consider it a career killer.

I'd love C'mon Take On Me II, but I know it isn't going to happen.

So I'm prepared to move on with open ears.
and my open ears are much preferring what I'm hearing now compared to the last album, so I'l listen to it and judge it on its own merits.
Not my ideal HCSS album, but so far it sounds ok.

?? err no. Why is it unrealistic to want the band to record something like the run of 5 albums when they were magnficent rather than something which is marginally better than the last pile of crap??? 

I'm not with you.

Because... time

Bands evolve. Sometimes in directions that suck.

I'm with you.

Which is why I see this new stuff as comparatively great.
I kinda expected them to continue with the direction they chose for the last album, so I'm happy that so far it's reasonably good.
Will have to wait until the full album is out to judge.

I'm well aware of that, but to me these last 2 songs are only marginally better than the last album.

I'll check it out on Spotify but my hopes are now zero based on this output.

Such a shame - this band arguably ruled the sleaze scene, but their insistent on returning to their earlier sound will kill this band for me.

Yep, me too probably.

But who knows if there are a bunch of people out there who love this stuff?
Maybe the Sweedes do? They're gonna pretty much think locally as they progress.

But it happens.
Bands change and I lose interest. Bon Jovi, Van Halen
Bands stay the same and I lose interest. WASP, Iron Maiden

I don't mind it again. This stuff may not be splitting ballsacks in half, but it's definitely going to be an album worth listening to.
