Who's in the band? Is he playing guitar and drums on most tracks?

I believe that Todd and guitarist Craig Blackwell wrote, recorded and self produced the full album.

Just found this.. It is just him and Craig Blackwell. Todd handled all vocals and drums and Craig was guitars and bass.  Decent watch

I've never heard him sing like this. I'm kinda excited to hear more. 

It wasn’t what I was expecting - Gave me a bit of a Fight / Testament / Exodus vibe which is never a bad thing.

Another vid. 

 

I missed this, thanks for posting. Another great song with a nice solo. Hyped for the album. 
 

That guy has a seriously killer voice.

Yeah, it's sounding good, so far.

This one arrived in the mailbox Friday; more pure METAL than his recent output with Queensryche... digging it so far.

Added over at Brutal Metal today: https://brutalmetal.com/cgi-bin/glamcd.cgi?BandNum=11707&CDName=Rejoice+in+the+Suffering&Letter=A

I’m enjoying this one.. heavy riffing and some stunning vocals by Todd. Wasn’t as immediate on the first spin - but that’s how I prefer it as the album gets stronger with each play. Solid stuff.

It’s up on Apple Music and Spotify if you fancy a listen before the physical version drops mate

Yeah, I've got it queued, but just need a proper moment to devote to it.

Been through it twice now. I think this one's gonna stick with me this year. Really cool. 

Great isn’t it. I sound like a broken record but Todd sounds f*cking awesome on this.

Did you listen to it on Apple? On the Spotifies, every track is listed as explicit. Is that the case on Apple? I only noticed one "fuck" on the entire album.

I did and every song is also listed as Explicit. Same as you it’s not something I picked up on, I know in Dogmata he says ‘motherfucker’ and Pretenders it’s ‘fuck’.. so maybe there is? I’ll listen out on the next run through.

Fuck knows :)

I just hope it doesn't fuckin' mess with the algorithm and fuck up his chances at greater exposure. Fuck.

    • Well, the first two "Giant" albums are quintessential, as is the "Hardline" debut. Akdo Nova's "Blood on the Bricks" is one of my all time favourites, Lizzy Borden is awesome as is the Mark/Marcie Free fronted "King Kobra".  
    • So some may remember that Tyketto toured recently and aside from Forever Young, I never delved into this band. So I did, so I'd know the songs in concert and was blown away. A great band with an awesome catalog that I had missed out on. To be fair, in the 80's it was a lot harder to access and find out about a lot of the more fringe bands, that's my excuse anyway. So I now am faced with digging deeper into some other bands I've overlooked. Some of these I gave a go, and wasn't really impressed, but now I'm starting fresh with an open mind. So below is a list of bands I have eitehr never bothered with, or never really gave a proper go. Lizzy Borden is on the list and I have done a bit of their stuff and like it a lot, so I will definately dig deeper into them (I've got some older stuff and some newer stuff, but have skipped quite a few albums) But the others, fire away, tell me which bands have killer material that I'll froth and how stppid I've been to skip them. Aldo Nova Badlands Baby Tango Baton Rouge Black N Blue Britney Fox BulletBoys DAD Giant Hanoi Rocks Hardline Jetboy King Kobra Kingdom Come Lillian Axe Lizzy Borden Loudness Love Hate Quireboys Saigon Kick Santa Cruz Shotgun Messiah SleezeBeez SouthGang Tiger Tailz TNT Vain White Tiger  
    • New song 'Chase The Sun'.    
    • Super Sabre - Sugar and Spice *This is actually a full album, “Chasing the Rabbit”, with a complete band backstory included in the YT description. “Sugar and Spice” is the opening track…  
    • EP out August 16th on Black Lodge Records. Since the release of the album "Now!", Roulette has embarked on a remarkable musical journey. Over the years, released several digital singles, each contributing to the evolving story of the band. As Roulette gear up for the new summer single "Love's The Drug", we're thrilled to announce the release of our special collection, the EP "From Now Until Today". This EP gathers all the singles released since "Now!", encapsulating the essence of Roulettes latest musical explorations. For the loyal fans, the physical releases also included a special bonus track that you won't find anywhere else-exclusively on this EP. Tracklist: LOVES THE DRUG READY FOR FRIDAY NIGHT LIFE WILL GO ON SUMMER DAY TEST OF TIME
    • I like the album art. I love when contemporary Glam Metal bands have album art with a genuine 80s vibe to it.
    • Nope, for a while, I used to think Rapunzel from Tangled (2010) was hot... But then I stopped being attracted to cartoon characters.
    • This is definitely the first time I've heard about it, I'll have to give it a listen!
