New deal with Mighty Music and a new album 'Neon Sunrise' this summer.

Press release:

Mighty Music is excited to announce the signing of Swedish AOR rising stars Captain Black Beard. Grown out in the melodic era of the 80s, with more than ten years in the music business, the band turned some heads with its last album ”Sonic Forces” and a new-found classy, disco-inspired AOR. It was time for Mighty Music to get into play.

”We’re absolutely fired up about signing to Mighty Music”, the band comments. ”Our new album is a beast waiting to be unleashed. Is the world ready? Who knows… but Captain Black Beard is back on a new mission and with our mighty collaborators, success shall come our way”.

The release of Captain Black Beard’s next album will be announced soon.

I don't recall being as enamoured with the last album as most of you were, but I'm liking these so far. 

Much n all as I liked the last album...this is sounding much better thus far.

Fantastic release! More Brother Firetribe than ever. 

Yep, both NFO and BF mentioned in this thread, and I agree with both comparisons. 

Anyway, I'm nowhere near as taken by these guys as many here, but there's a few cool moments on this new album. I liked 'Wasted Heart,' 'Night Reaction' and 'State Of Denial.' Of the rest, some of it's not bad but as I was listening to this I was thinking how when I open this thread I'd bet people will be disappointed with this album after the mega praise the last album received. As usual, I was wrong, but I am surprised that this may be preferred to the last one. 

Anyway, good luck to them. They remind me so much of the Hardcore Superstar situation. Bumbled along for so long before anyone took any notice, and now they have plenty of eyes on them. I'm happy for them and hope they keep the dream alive for the fans.

I don't 

not fit to tie either of those bands bootlaces 

Don't like the vocals, and about 3 good songs of which Moment of Truth was by far the best

Whether or not they achieve the perceived heights of those bands, I still heard the sound / style of those bands in this release. I'm not a fan of NFO so for me that was the element of the new album I didn't like, and recent Brother Firetribe has been pretty underwhelming too... so through my eyes it's not heavyweight comparisons, and therefore, for me, pretty valid comparisons. 

BUT!!! To each their own. ;)

    • Bit 50/50 on it, myself. I prefer the stuff on Mick's solo album, but it's not a bad song. That kind of solo in a Motley song definitely sticks out... but not in a bad way. It's cool. I dig. 
    • Did they actually break up? They were releasing albums annually and finally fixed up the production end but haven't heard from them for a while now. Always loved everything they released, personally.  Edit - yeah, 'Be Here' from 2020 seems to be the last album. Allegedly still active, but obviously no recent albums. Would love to hear them add to the discography. 
    • Released back in 2019 on vinyl only in most of the world, the only place it could be purchased on CD was Japan. It is finally available on CD to the rest of the world with the addition of two bonus tracks. One is the usual "bonus" track of a live recording of Go man go, and the other is the song Don't give up which was released at the start of the pandemic as a single. https://townsendmusic.store/product/140275?lf=035f179d9c80928d2d3b155fa72b0731 Follow the breadcrumbs to a sonic treasure trove with Alice Cooper's "Breadcrumbs" EP, which will be available on CD for the first time ever, featuring additional bonus tracks on this edition! Originally released in 2019 as a limited-edition 10" vinyl record, "Breadcrumbs" is a tribute to the garage rock heroes of Alice Cooper's hometown of Detroit. The EP features six tracks that showcase Cooper's raw and energetic take on classic Detroit tunes, including Suzi Quatro's "Your Mama Won't Like Me", Bob Seger's "East Side Story", and the MC5's "Sister Anne". It also includes the two additional bonus tracks "Don’t Give Up", conveying Cooper’s message of hope and perseverance to his fans during the COVID-19 pandemic, and a live version of "Go Man Go" from his electrifying set at Hellfest 2022. The album featured a star-studded lineup of Detroit musicians, including Wayne Kramer of the MC5, Johnny "Bee" Badanjek of the Detroit Wheels, and Mark Farner of Grand Funk Railroad. "Breadcrumbs" marked the beginning of Alice Cooper's homecoming, a journey that culminated in the critically acclaimed studio album "Detroit Stories", released in 2020. This EP served as a taste of Cooper's profound affection for his hometown's rich musical heritage, making it an essential addition for any devoted fan of the shock rock icon.   1. Detroit City 2020 2. Go Man Go 3. East Side Story 4. Your Mama Won't Like Me 5. Devil With A Blue Dress On / Chains Of Love 6. Sister Anne 7. Don't Give Up (Bonus Track) 8. Go Man Go (Live At Hellfest 2022) (Bonus Track)  
    • New song "Summerlovin" feat. Olli Herman, me likey...  
    • Pretty awesome! I often fantasize about starting an AOR, but I know nothing about making music.
    • Not gonna lie, I kind of like it. Hardly classic Crue, more like something that would have appeared on the Corabi-fronted self-titled album, but it's not bad for an oldschool band trying a modern hard rock song. That being said, I expect my opinion to be a lonely one, and I understand why fans are dogging on it...
    • Hi everybody, my band (Ricky Shindig) just released a cover version of Journey's Separate Ways. Before we were Ricky Shindig, three of us were in a cover band together. As a little "turn back time" we decided to record a cover song while we slowly start working on some new material.  We chose 'Separate Ways' because this song is an essential part of every Ricky Shindig party and one of the catchiest songs ever written. We are looking forward to hearing any kind of feedback   
    • Posted the first few videos when they dropped but realised I had not posted about the album, which is probably as I can't afford it. Not only is the CD $20 ($30 signed), but the postage to the UK is $46.25, which is by far the most anyone from the USA has tried to charge. Their answer when I questioned this was "We don't control the postal system". Now I know US prices are high on postage, but not this high. $30 seems to be the norm these days, but I have had two CD orders from the USA that have cost $9 and $5 (not sure how but I aint complaining). Anyway, the album is already out
