Collateral - Re-Wired

[Stefan]

 

 

'Re-Wired' out October 21 through Cargo Records.

Press release:

COLLATERAL are back touring as intensely as they were prior to covid. With UK wide tours with RECKLESS LOVE, HEAT and SKID ROW, Collateral are gaining more momentum than ever and are back at the forefront of rock fans worldwide.

COLLATERAL have decided to re-release their debut album before unleashing the official 2nd studio album next year. Previously released in February 2020 the album managed a top 5 position in the UK OFFICIAL ROCK CHARTS. Now with its re-birth called ”RE-WIRED” the album has been re-mixed and re mastered but it doesn’t end there!

Each track has a special guest featured. Angelo Tristan had this to say about the re-release.”Our debut album came out just before covid hit. We were halfway through a tour with Phil X promoting it when suddenly the world shut down so we weren’t able to get the album out there as much as we would have liked. We thought this album had so much more to give so decided to call a few of our friends around the world to ask if they would be interested in jumping on it. I didn’t expect the response to be so epic and now with the songs re mixed and re mastered with the added extra of some badass names on it, this album sounds like it should have done in the first place. Big, powerful and emotional! It sets us up nicely for our 2nd studio album early next year.”

To match the buzz, the boys in Collateral have announced their new single ’SIN IN THE CITY’. The Motley Crue esq stadium riffs and Bon Jovi sized chorus melodies will wipe the cobwebs off the dazed and will be sure to get any crowd off their feet from the first chord.

Front man Angelo Tristan says ”This track shows a raw, darker and fun side to us than anything we’ve released to date. You can see that when we play it live to a packed-out home crowd in London. Everyone just loses their minds!” Lead guitarist Todd Winger simply puts, “It’s a dirty riffing banger! My new favourite to play live!! Get ya dancing shoes on!”

Nice that they're back...but i'll wait for the new 2nd album next year....although I would like to hear the only new song "Sin In The City"

[rickinmd]

Liked the first one a lot!

Even the Country-ish tunes.

New song 'Sin In The City'.

Song is pretty decent, just glad they're still active and looking forward to more new material.

They're stuff has been about 50/50 for me.  On their debut, I basically liked the first half of the album that had more of a rocking feel to it and didn't care for most of the second half that had a lot of country-ish slower songs that reminded me too much of modern Bon Jovi.

Anyways, this this song fits into the rocking category for me and sounds good to my ears.

painfully average, and terrible lyrically

Did you not hear the Motley Crue esq stadium riffs and Bon Jovi sized chorus melodies?

lol. 

[lettard]

Yeah not bad...the debut was hit and miss for me...the countryish stuff didnt float my boat at all...but they have potential...always remind me of a British Nickelback

[Geoff]

Listened back to this album which reminded me they're a pretty decent band. Looking forward to the actual new album next year... but this was a nice refresher.
