First full listen and I Think this sounds like a true Winner! Some hooks not very immediate but I Believe I can grow to love them with a few more listens. Classic sound is back and production sounds very good I Think. Todd is Close enough to Tate to recreate the Classic vibe but has his own slant as well. Finally!

Very good call. Roxette have plenty of hidden gems on their albums. As a Swede music lover I have had no chance but to get well aquinted with those albums - part of our upbringing. Roxette have made some stellar stuff over the years, but I have always had slight problem with the programmed drums - taking away a bit of the soul and feel they could have had. Roxette does not groove :-) Neverthel

Thanks for that! I read As above, so below and saton the fence whether reading also Relentless. So your input here is valuable. Thinks As above, so below was a very interesting read. Some very unflattering stuff in there, but also a lot of credit to him. I can recommend As above, so below for what it is - uncensored but not from the man himself.

I think it is fantastic that Parker apparantly has this ability to compose and in the vein of classic QR. This + his now quite extensive tenure with the band adds crediblity to the line up I think. Surprising fact indeed.

Love Where Dreams Go To Die - best QR song since classic era! Fallout sounds very promising too, but the live version shot with a mobile phone is muddy. Well... seems like the QR I've missed painfully for almost two decades is BACK!! Tate-camp is worried now.

I respect that you don't choose what music to listen to based on personalities (or lack thereoff). I do just the same - I've listen to plenty a seemingly crazy personality over the years. Just in this case - there is a bit at stake supporting Tateryche with purchases etc (for us wanting ToddRyche to own the brand post November).

Yes, disgrace it is. I will give the "real" QR come June a chance to prove they are worthy of the name.

Well pls consider it is NOT Queensryche. the musicians plaing on the cd are all mainly session musicians and not the blokes in Tate's new line up. Those "new" guys contributions are Rudy on bass on three-four songs, Simon Wright playing on one, Kelly Gray doing 1 solo (only) and that keyboard guy playing on perhaps 4-5 songs. THe rest are session guys and namey guest musicians (Tate

Shade and Quicksand - I agree 100%. Whitesnake at its finest and with DC at the top of his game voice wise. Head and shoulders above anything released thereafter (Donington -82 VHS excluded).

And the 'Live at Donington' VHS release from the Saints and Sinners tour. Must have been 1982. As well as the Starkers in Tokyo CD (and DVD?) from 1997. Well, the live releases up until the 90-ies were pretty sparse actually, looking at it. But from 2004 and onwards 'a tad' to many.. but I do like the idea of releasing live albums from earlier line ups - like the Live at Donington 1990-

Bark at the moon for me - was released in during my muscially most formative period and Jake became like a god to me with his playing and sharp visual look. Went backwards and eventually got to adore Rhodes playing - Blizzard is of course a genre classic, but unfortunately I think Diary.. falls short and quite a bit material wise. Unfortunatley Ozzy's albums often are quite uneven. Perhaps

Saw the Friday show in Stockholm and can only agree - very, very good! Not a die hard fan at all but the performance and atmosphere were simply irresistable. Very engaging show - from the boss himself and his large crowd of musicians. The fact that his latest album Wrecking Ball has more soul and folk music ingredients as per usual for him set a very good tone for the evening - less of the straig

I respect your tiredness of it, Scott. Myself am intruiged by the developments of a situation I have never seen before. Agrre they haven't done anything specatacular in almost 20 years, but those recores up utnil and including Promised Land are so classic that to me QR-land is still of high interest. Or at least the possibility of Todd-Ryche releasing something along the lines of those cla

Gosh! This is becoming painful for all involved - including us long time QR fans.. According to prerelease below Cleopatra Records plan was to release the intitial mix - they had decided upon to be sub-standard.. - at initial date April 23rd (in order to get to market before Todd-Ryche) and then have the remixed version released at a later date...

It has the exciting early QR sound for sure and Todd is ace (if a soundalike is what you want - in this case I do). Song wise I don't think it is that special - would have been one of the weaker tracks on RFO and the weakest of OM IMO. Still I am excited to see what the album has to offer songwise, now that I am convinced on the style and sound. Cheers

Harmonised lead similar to We will be strong and verses similar to Got to give it up... or what do you say? Similiar in a good way that is! No copying going on here. Very very impressed how they inkl Kevin Shirley has captured the Lizzy sound and spirit! Thank god they didn't call themselves THin Lizzy, so I would have a hard time digesting this. Cheers

Aren't these vocals pretty much all remade in a studio afterwards? And that de-tuning... ruins the song for me.. Compare to the version of Fool for your loving from Live in the heart of the city from beginning of 80-ies... quite a contrast in delivery - DC's voice, musical dynamics.. http://ultimateclassicrock.com/whitesnake-video-premiere-2013a/ As much as I like the two post-reunion a

Yes, he was an iconic guitar hero there for a while and rightfully so. Def an indentity of his own (including his sharp looks and stage prescence). Truly a waste how little his total output is. Badlands had their moments (I prefer 2nd disc Voodoo Highway) but the blues basad Jake was not as cool as the metal one I thought. Jake and Ray Gillen was a very cool combo though.

Sounds promising especially All the time in the world - nice departure that suites them well! Hell to pay - excellent verses and bridges, chorus bit lame but ok I guess. If the whole album is this vital I am impressed and surprised. Have lost interest gradually since the magnificent Purpendicular back in '96.

The cover truly is pathetic... reinforces the impression the predominant reason for releasing the album is to give his old pals a hard time. Train wreck scenario indeed... not even the hired guns in his new line-up playing on the album (except for one or two blokes..) and outside song writers on top of that I guess.
