Saga77 Posted September 6, 2022 Report Share Posted September 6, 2022 (edited) Nordic Hard Rock For Peace's first single, "Hellbound Train" (Art Of Melody Music/Burning Minds Music Group), is available for streaming and download on all digital platforms.http://www.burningmindsgroup.com/art-of-melody-music/buy/162 The Nordic Hard Rock For Peace initiative was instigated by Peter Hermansson and Martin Jepsen Andersen, during writing sessions for the follow-up to Hermansson’s acclaimed solo album, "Second Glance", which was co-produced by Andersen himself. Exactly in the middle of the songwriting process, the two Scandinavian musicians (Hermansson from Sweden, Andersen from Denmark) happened upon the foundations of what was to become the song "Hellbound Train". While the duo was working on the song, Russia began its aggressive invasion of Ukraine, and, impressed with the song's potential, Hermansson came up with the idea of turning it into an all-star, ensemble-cast song commenting on the present, horrible situation in Ukraine.Later, with the gracious help and participation from friends and colleagues in mainly the Swedish hard rock scene, "Hellbound Train" has seen the light of day. All proceeds from the release will be donated to the Red Cross and their relief efforts for the people of Ukraine.LINE-UP:Peter Hermansson (220 Volt, John Norum, Talisman): VocalsGöran Edman (John Norum, Yngwie Malmsteen, Headless): VocalsMatti Alfonzetti (Skintrade, Jagged Edge, Alfonzetti): VocalsPontus Snibb (Bonafide): VocalsAnnie Kratz-Gutå (Annie For President, E-type, Dr. Alban): VocalsGöran Nyström (220 Volt): VocalsMartin Jepsen Andersen (Blindstone, Meridian, Chalice Of Sin, George Clinton & The P-Funk Allstars, Walter Trout): Lead & Rhythm GuitarsMicke Hujanen (Alfonzetti): Lead GuitarMarco Angioni (Meridian, Streetfighter): Lead GuitarJanne Stark (Overdrive, Merryweather/Stark): Lead GuitarMats Karlsson (220 Volt): Lead GuitarChristopher Ståhl (Talisman): Lead GuitarJohan Niemann (Evergrey): BassHasse Sjölander (Skintrade): DrumsWEB/SOCIAL LINKS:https://www.facebook.com/NordicHardrockForPeacehttps://www.facebook.com/artofmelodymusichttp://www.burningmindsgroup.com/art-of-melody-musichttps://www.instagram.com/burning_minds_music_group Edited September 6, 2022 by Saga77 missing cover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auslander Posted September 6, 2022 Report Share Posted September 6, 2022 I know their heart is in the right place but I kinda really hate the whole political/charity all star release thing. It dates the music and kinda sucks the enjoyment out of it. A pass for me on any of these "I support the current thing" songs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
