Dare - Blood From Stone

[Dead Planet]

Another no skip mind blowing release....

Of course, the World famous Physicist, Professor Brian Cox on Keyboards. 

I remember the first time I saw him interviewed on TV and his history as a Rock Star came up.

I couldn't believe it and had to check my CD for confirmation.

Yes definitely a no skip disc and sounds so good even after all of these years,this and the debut are classics,loved the debut and I remember before this disc was released that Radio1 in the UK were doing a different style of music every week to introduce people to new bands and on the Rock week they had an interview with Darren Wharton and played the exclusive first tune "We Don't Need A Reason",I was blown away and couldn't believe the difference in sound from this and the debut...waited patiently for this to be released and indeed break big...alas Nirvana & co where just around the corner   but I still bought it,rocked it and still rock it now ...Mr Big whose debut I already owned were on the same Radio broadcast with "Be With You" and look what it did for them...anyone I know knows them...but just for that song...go figure.

Truly awesome album and probably my favourite by Dare. Love that they cut loose and rock harder with this one. 
Out Of The Silence and Blood From Stone represent quite a shift in style - but fair play to Dare who made 2 classics albums. 

Saw Dare perform some tracks from Blood From Stone a few years back and although Darren struggled with tracks such as ‘We Don’t Need A Reason’ they still came across well.

Great album, although I prefer 'Out Of The  Silence' 

[Dead Planet]

It is probably heresy to say this but I really don't care for 'Out of the Silence'....there are a couple of songs that I like but after hearing Blood From Stone and being blown away I had high expectations when I played OOTS and was sadly disappointed....

For me both CDs are essential. Out of the silence being an AOR classic,this one an melodic hard rock classic.

They were never able to top first two cds. 

Similarly to Giant.
