Never heard of them before.

The posted song has a pretty unique style.
I like it.

Amber Galactic was my favourite album of 2017 by some distance.

no definitely not prog.

the first 2 albums had one long track on each but Amber Galactic was all 4 mins songs in a standard verse chorus structure.

Well, not exactly, in AG there was Midnight Flyer with 6:07, Domino 5:00, and Saturn In Velvet with 7:26. About genre, in Wikipedia they are classified both as Hard Rock and Progressive Rock (see at the right side, in Genres):

although in the main text only says they are a hard rock band, so...

My own opinion is that they should be catalogued as Classic Rock perhaps. But better forget genres and just enjoy the music. And in Amber Galactic there was truly a lot to enjoy.

true. But Saturn is a red herring as the song basically ends just over 5 mins. It's not really prog as such. 

Most of their songs are just standard structure.

Not that it matters - just wouldn't want people reading this thread to be put off listening by thinking it's prog.

I was kinda taking the piss a bit by labeling them.

To me it sounded like that, but I've only heard one song.
Regardless, how they are classified is irrelevant compared to if you enjoy them or not.

If I hear a great rap song I'll listen to it. This just doesn't happen though :)

My originla point was that they sounded pretty unique.

I've heard samples of nearly every song and it sounds absolutely outstanding.

In fairness Lovers sounds the weakest track, even though I like the song. 

Loved the first single This Time....basically my fav song this year.

Really? I love the debut. It's the 2nd release which was a blip imo. 4 or 5 fantastic tracks but some more average stuff as well.

Amber Galactic was amazing and easily my fav album of 2017. I've also played it more than any album in 2018 too.

    • Safe, but a nice song.  Did they name their band after a random HEAT song? 
    • Really good band, but haven't heard from them in an absolute age. Shame if all they're doing is a few covers.  The 'Bye bye bye' cover is killer.  'I want it that way' is a great song anyway, but their version is gold. Love that.  But just to prove you can't polish a dog turd, no one could make 'Thriller' sound listenable to me.  Amplified even more with 'Believer.' No Imagine Dragons song should ever be covered or allowed to be acknowledged that it was even actually recorded. Horrendous band and I hate the cover only a tiny bit less than the original, which is a tonne. 
    • Kickin' riff. This is a cool tune indeed. New album sounding promising. 
    • Doesn't do much for me. Not sure it's any better than what I've heard from the new BJ album... but I guess it's not too bad. Wouldn't play it again, though. 
    • Bit 50/50 on it, myself. I prefer the stuff on Mick's solo album, but it's not a bad song. That kind of solo in a Motley song definitely sticks out... but not in a bad way. It's cool. I dig. 
    • Did they actually break up? They were releasing albums annually and finally fixed up the production end but haven't heard from them for a while now. Always loved everything they released, personally.  Edit - yeah, 'Be Here' from 2020 seems to be the last album. Allegedly still active, but obviously no recent albums. Would love to hear them add to the discography. 
    • Released back in 2019 on vinyl only in most of the world, the only place it could be purchased on CD was Japan. It is finally available on CD to the rest of the world with the addition of two bonus tracks. One is the usual "bonus" track of a live recording of Go man go, and the other is the song Don't give up which was released at the start of the pandemic as a single. https://townsendmusic.store/product/140275?lf=035f179d9c80928d2d3b155fa72b0731 Follow the breadcrumbs to a sonic treasure trove with Alice Cooper's "Breadcrumbs" EP, which will be available on CD for the first time ever, featuring additional bonus tracks on this edition! Originally released in 2019 as a limited-edition 10" vinyl record, "Breadcrumbs" is a tribute to the garage rock heroes of Alice Cooper's hometown of Detroit. The EP features six tracks that showcase Cooper's raw and energetic take on classic Detroit tunes, including Suzi Quatro's "Your Mama Won't Like Me", Bob Seger's "East Side Story", and the MC5's "Sister Anne". It also includes the two additional bonus tracks "Don’t Give Up", conveying Cooper’s message of hope and perseverance to his fans during the COVID-19 pandemic, and a live version of "Go Man Go" from his electrifying set at Hellfest 2022. The album featured a star-studded lineup of Detroit musicians, including Wayne Kramer of the MC5, Johnny "Bee" Badanjek of the Detroit Wheels, and Mark Farner of Grand Funk Railroad. "Breadcrumbs" marked the beginning of Alice Cooper's homecoming, a journey that culminated in the critically acclaimed studio album "Detroit Stories", released in 2020. This EP served as a taste of Cooper's profound affection for his hometown's rich musical heritage, making it an essential addition for any devoted fan of the shock rock icon.   1.
