Safetysuit - 'Life left to go' ; this sounds very nice

 

Yeah, I listened at their Myspace page and was quite impressed - what's the full album like?

This one is great, mate. I keep using this word, but I guess only when I hear a good band which means there's a few going round, but it's collection of good, strong emotive tunes. If I had to pick a comparison I'd say Goo Goo Dolls, but don't let it decide it for you one way or another. This is just a great disc.

 

New spins:

 

Seventh Day Slumber - 'Finally awake'

A New Revolution - 'Rise'

Tupelo Honey - 'Machines and robots'

The New Shining - 'Supernatural showdown'

 

After spinning a heap of crap I am finally reaping the rewards of persistence as these are all fantastic.

Sorry mate, but I just fully disagree with what that question means. I only listen to hard rock. If people have to say these bands are so separate to HOL or Brother Firetribe, that's their loss. There's solos on all these albums; there's big riffs, big choruses... everything that makes me listen to the latest HOL or Brother Firetribe. I personally don't think I'm listening to something different. Every reason I love HOl and Brother Firetribe is the same reason I love these bands.

 

Break down these barriers, mate, and just enjoy music for what it is.

I spun Casanova's debut very loudly while cooking a feast at home not too long ago; I will spin the Jaded Heart catalogue in it's entirety in a couple of weeks when 'Sinister mind' arrives in the mail and just last night I listened to D2 on my Ipod as I went to sleep.

 

Sadly what I listen to has nothing to do with whether it's "modern" or not. There are just too many albums to listen to these days and I always get so caught up in the current year I don't have the time to listen to older CDs ("modern" or not) until there is a lull in the new releases.

 

But it was only a few months ago I went on a Newman kick, or KISS, or Michael Morales etc. I still do it - even when I just kick out to my Ipod which is 80% MHR, but at the moment I'm just going through a patch of new releases. I know where my home is and return at every opportunity. I just may not always post about it. :)

I agree 100% - the fact is that so far this year quite a few modern releases like Story Of The Year, Simple Plan, Tupelo Honey, Pillar, Theory of A Deadman etc are better than most MHR efforts.....aside from Brother Firetribe, WOA and Khymera........and so definitely deserve the attention they are receiving - from me anyhow.

 

I am eagerly awaiting some upcoming releases though which will radically change this - namely Harem Scarem, Journey, Marcello/Vestry, Bob Catley.....these will put MHR firmly back on the map in 08.

    • I was a pretty big fan. Nature Of The Beast is a killer song. Saw them with Dave Gleeson from the Screaming Jets singing and he did an amazing job, but pretty sure they have a new singer now  I recently went through the two most recent albums before this one and there were a couple of ok tracks, but mostly mid. Fun fact: I saw the Angels a couple of years before Doc died at the Middle hotel in Ferntree Gully and they seemed to hate each other. Pretty sure Doc said nothing to the crowd all night. Fun fact 2: when they were building the transit bar in Melbourne, a mate and I found a service elevator that went to the roof, which was under construction. After peeing off the roof, which is always fun, we realised that we could clearly hear the music 5 or 6 floors below from a DJ I think. He was playing Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again. We started yelling down the No Way Get Fucked, Fuck Off bit thinking we were hilarious. Then soon we noticed people looking up, and for some reason they seemed to be clearly hearing us. Another mate then called us to tell us security were on the way up the stairs so we took the service elevator down and managed to laugh it off. Stoopid drunk story I guess, but fun days.
    • Cheeky, getting your artwork in there. I wonder how you did that.  I like the vocal track on #1 and that'd be my pick. I personally don't dig the female versions of songs, because I'm not a female (yet?) and as these are songs written by ourselves I personally feel the best interpretation is an AI dude voice taking the place of your dude voice. 
    • Yeah, that's great but this is obviously an accomplished musician probably completely in control of this output... not done with Suno, I'd bet. There's definitely dudes out there who are perfectly capable of doing their own music, like this dude, but for whatever reason might not be able to put a project together, again, for whatever reason... but this definitely feels a lot more like AI feeling in the missing gaps for someone otherwise in complete control of what he wants.  Either way, it is very cool indeed.  As Darkstone says, I'm not sure paying is the way to get the best results. I'm also not saying it isn't, especially with other platforms that are not Suno. I think already knowing what you're doing, musically, is the best way to get best results, personally. Suno, for example, is just perfect for someone who might enjoy writing lyrics but is not in any way shape or form an accomplished (or even adequate, lol) musician.  But yeah, it's pretty cool for some fun. I'm not sure if you checked out my links above. Keeping them pretty quiet due to lyrical content, lol, but you might dig some of the stuff in my links. 'As the moment passes by' and 'I'll wait for you' are two of my personal faves. Along with 'Faith to fall.'
    • Yeah, musically it's what you want, but vocally... Maybe Alex should take some vocal lessons from Ken Tamplin. ;}

    • Yep, although I was never a massive fan.
    • Yes, celebrating their fifty years. There only two original members left in the band. Dusty might agree with me the Angels died when the original singer passed away.
    • It's just not the same without the Doc though...
