New album 'Universal Human Desire' out March 31. From Lions Pride Music: Outlasted is a professional rock band hailing from Norway, known for their captivating blend of AOR (Album-Oriented Rock) sound. Formed in 2010 by guitarist Terje Fløyli and keyboard player Odd-Børge Hansen, the band's unique journey began with the exchange of song ideas through traditional mail, rather than the ubiquitous digital communication we now know as email. Despite residing in different cities, Fløyli and Hansen forged a deep musical connection, fostering their shared passion for AOR by burning CDs and sending files back and forth. Gradually, their collaborative efforts materialized into a collection of songs that formed the foundation of their debut album, "Into the Night," which was released in 2016 through Melodic Rock Records. To bring their vision to life, Outlasted enlisted the talents of drummer Rune Bryn and bassist Rickard Johannesson, who contributed to the recording of the album's bed tracks. However, the band's lineup experienced changes, leading to the recruitment of vocalist Glenn Wikran, drummer Rune Erling Pedersen, and bassist Aleksander Schjølberg. The release of "Into the Night" garnered international acclaim, captivating listeners worldwide and receiving high praise from critics. Notably, the music video for their hit single, "Someone Like You," quickly gained viral popularity, spreading like wildfire across the internet. In 2019, Outlasted unveiled their highly anticipated sophomore album, "Waiting for Daybreak." The CD edition, limited to 500 copies, sold out within a mere three months, attesting to the band's growing fanbase. Tragically, shortly after the album's release, their record label underwent a change in ownership. Consequently, the physical copies of "Waiting for Daybreak" became coveted collectors' items. However, the band remained undeterred, navigating these challenges with resilience. Prior to commencing the recording of "Waiting for Daybreak," Outlasted underwent another lineup transformation, bidding farewell to drummer Rune Erling Pedersen and bassist Aleksander Schjølberg. Their vacant spots were filled by drummer Andreas Jentoft and bassist Lasse Ingebrigtsen, both of whom contributed their exceptional skills to the band's subsequent music videos, "Chains of Destiny" and "After All These Years." In 2023, Outlasted inked a significant record deal with Lions Pride Music, solidifying their global reach. Currently, the band is diligently crafting their third studio album, poised for release on March 31, 2025. With their unwavering dedication and unwritten chapters awaiting, Outlasted is set to captivate audiences once again with their irresistible AOR sound, leaving an indelible mark on the rock music landscape. Outlasted is: Glenn Wikran – Lead Vocals, Backing Vocals & Guitars Terje Fløyli – Guitars Odd-Børge Hansen – Keyboards & Backing Vocals Lasse Ingebrigtsen – Bass Andreas Jentoft – Drums 01.

Love a bit of Kim. She's done some real quality albums over the years, especially her first 5 or so albums. 'Here Come The Aliens' from 2018 was a real return to form and the 2 latest singles promise a lot for the new album too. -
Nothing has really stuck with this tbh, so a solid album without blowing me away.

A good album and their best in quite a while. 'Don't Wanna Say Goodbye' and 'State Of Emergency' are my picks.

It's ok, although a little weak on the original songs if i'm honest. Of the 6 New England covers, whilst quite well done, they don't improve or add anything compared to the fantastic original versions, although 'I'm Not Down', which was meant for the unreleased 4th New England album, is the clear winner on this set. Not an album that will get played very often, but not a bad effort.

Yep...musically very sound, but a little bit too 'preachy' for me.
