Album out November 24th. From Escape Music: Atack’s founder member and lead guitarist Keith Atack has a long pedigree in the rock music scene. He grew up during the sixties and was influenced from an early age by bands like The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Yardbirds and then on to Jimmy Page and Ritchie Blackmore. He has also toured with many pop acts like Bonnie Tyler, Rick Astley and many others. He has a rock / funk / soul style as well as a jazz and blues influence. He is joined by band members that also have strong roots in the rock scene such as Bob Richards on drums who has rubbed shoulders with members of bands like Iron Maiden, Survivor, Asia and Shy. Bassist Chris Childs is well respected and is the bass player with UK stalwarts “Thunder/Lonerider/Tyketto”, he is an ideal addition to the line-up along with seasoned vocalist Lee Small (Shy/Phenomena/Lionheart and many more). Finishing off the quintet is Nick Foley whose keyboard prowess is ever present throughout the album. The sound of the Hammond for which he is known gives the whole album a feel of Deep Purple and Rainbow with a true classic British Rock sound. “Nine Lives” is an exciting addition to the escape music roster and available in limited edition vinyl and CD formats, something very much to look forward to. CD tracklist: 01 Dead Man’s Boots (5:25) 02 Nine Lives (4:36) 03 The Seven Seas (5:27) 04 Remember or forget (5:11) 05 Like a twister blowing through (4:26) 06 New Addiction (4:22) 07Stone cold (3:26) 08 Poison Water (4:31) 09 This house (4:42) 10 The end of the world (4:30) 11 Lie to me Bonus track for the CD -

i've seen their name mentioned somewhere before but never heard them. This is a good mix of mellow clean vocal and heavy and i really like 'From The Inside' especially out of these 2. This is definitely more of the sort of stuff I am listening to nowadays compared to the soft and fluffy of yore, so will defo check out more. -
Good new EP which raised it's head a little above the pack, for me. Worth checking out. 1 . Fallout 2 . Enough 3 . Another Way 4 . Gone or Staying 5 . Numb 6 . It's Over This was my favourite tune off the EP; And this appears to be the single; -
I actually heard these three new albums for interest's sake... and I don't get it. Why now, with this vocalist? Of all their eras. Musically it all sounds cool and I don't hate the concept of re-recording some of the real older stuff. I actually would have* liked a re-recording of 'Don't touch the light.' *would have liked to hear it with the last vocalist they had. I liked that guy. Alexx Stahl, it was. Why didn't they do all this when he was still in the band? I don't like this new guy at all, and the reworks of 'Fireworks' and 'Point Blank' are so pointless, and you'd even argue disrespectful, putting that voice on these amazing and perfectly originally recorded tunes. Like I said, imo, 'Don't touch the light' sounds really dated and I wouldn't have hated the re-recording, with Alexx Stahl on vocals. But not this new guy...

I acknowledge that I'm getting arguably a bit too harsh these days, and maybe it's a consequence of trying to finalise my yearly playlists, from the start. I'm currently going through 1991. Either way, when I hear this I'm just bored. It's all half decently constructed hard rock, but I don't get any thrill from it. As by-the-numbers as it gets, imo. I don't hate it, but there's nothing on here I need to hear again, sadly.
