auslander Posted August 21, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2021 Really good melodic metal for 1997. New Jerusalem from their self-titled album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auslander Posted August 24, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) AOR from 2005, the band is Cry Holy and this song is the title track to the album AlieNation. I think AOR fans would love this track. Edited August 24, 2021 by auslander Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PetraGirl86 Posted August 24, 2021 Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 What a cool thread! The next one should be something by The Violet Burning 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auslander Posted August 24, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) From the Violet Burning's brief period in the mainstream. This song is from their self-titled album in 1996. Alternative rock with plenty of distortion. Edited August 25, 2021 by auslander 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auslander Posted August 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 Michael W Smith released an AOR album (his only rock album) in 1986 that featured (you guessed it) Dan Huff ripping it up on guitar. This is from The Big Picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is from The Big Picture. His only rock album? You don't consider "I 2 (Eye)" to be rock as well? I always considered these two back-to-back albums to be Smitty's rock phase. Frankly, I wish he'd go back to this sound... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but he followed the crowd and I don't know what Christian is supposed to sound like but for some reason it has a genre??? Like it is all supposed to sound the same???? Idk So he went for that anyway and it sounds absolutely awful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if a bloke's doing your plumbing and then you find out he is a Christian does that make him a Christian plumber? The only difference is lyrics and the way albums were distributed. But if different forms of distribution are an issue then why isn't "mailorder" or "download" a genre? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auslander Posted August 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 Back in 1988 Novella released this version of the song Running Home on the excellent Axemen compilation. It is superior to the later album version, in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
