Race The Rat. Formed in Baltimore, MD in 1991, the band played all the local scene for 2 years before calling it quits in 1993. In 2015, the band reunited after yours truly sparked their interest when posting the bands original recorded off a radio show back in 1993. After multiple lineup changes, they solidified a solid lineup and make the change from cover band to all originals. The songs have been released on a weekly basis and a CD release is possible if the interest is there.

So far 7 originals have been released (1 an old redo). I would appreciate everyone's feedback:

Feel The Thunder

 

All In Or Nothing

 

Why Do You Love Me

 

Love Serum

 

I Can't Talk To You

 

Hollowman

 

Race The Rat (original from 1992 redone)

 

Struggles

 

Alcohol And Idiots

 

Make sure you check out the band here:

As I am stuck in an eighties time warp, I hear lot of eighties sound which I loved. So I am enjoying what I am listening to. The vocals has similar sound of someone else, who I cannot remember.

The start of " Alcohol And Idiots " , reminds me a start or chorus of a Bowie's song. Which one I cannot  remember.

I will give it 8/10.

      Thunder reissues part 2

      By Captain Howdy · Posted

      I wonder what control they have over the releases? That have promoted the BMG individual releases. The 2009 reissues were by original label, EMI. And this boxset seems weird being issued by Cherry Red. And I have not seen the bands social media promote it at all. I wonder if the reason the BMG ones were lacking in the bonus tracks from the previous reissue was EMI holding onto the rights, but have now allowed Cherry Red to release them. I know EMI used to be the distributer for Cherry Red, so they may be more forthcoming with the material.

      Babymetal

      I have been a Band Maid fan since their early days (2015) as I really don't mind foreign vocals as long as the music is great, but I always kinda avoided Babymetal as I saw a video of them once and really wasn't impressed with the kiddy vocals, so never gave them another chance. Fast forward to now and on the back of the collab with Electric Callboy I have decided to give them a go. I thought they had a huge discography as they have like 25 albums, but on closer inspection it is only four studio albums and 21 live albums. As I am not a fan of live albums anyway, I decided to buy the four studio albums as they are all quite cheap. Have to say there music is a mixed bag, but overall really enjoying a lot of it. Not sure if I just picked the wrong song to start with, or if it is just that I have adapted more due to getting into a lot of weird and wonderful foreign bands over the last few years, but I am glad I finally gave them a proper go. Have to say, if this song was sung in English I think they would have a lot of fans on here
