Happy Friday. Things are heating up as Winter is coming to an end and Spring is starting to hit in full bloom. And speaking of heating up, so are the pre-orders as I have The Darkness, W.E.T., Fleetwood Mac and Van Halen arriving today so a lot to listen to when they arrive. What do you want to hear this week and what did we miss? Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend.
The Darkness – Dreams on Toast – (Napalm Records)
W.E.T. – Apex – (Frontiers Records)
Sick Puppies – Wave the Bull – (ONErpm)
Deafheaven – Lonely People With Power – (Roadrunner Records)
Fleetwood Mac – Fleetwood Mac 1975-1987 – (Rhino / Warner Records)
Santana – Sentient – (Candid)
Bryan Ferry – Loose Talk – (Merry Star Productions)
Lit – Tastes Like Gold – (Round Hill Records): It has been 5 years since their last album and it was more tinged towards country than the pop punk they usually do. This time they are going back to their original sound…thank goodness. Here’s hoping for a return to form.
Iconic – Second Skin – (Frontiers Records): Another Frontiers Supergroup which is actually getting kind of ridiculous…but is one is featuring Nathan James (Inglorious), Michael Sweet (Stryper), Joel Hoesktra (Whitesnake), Marco Mendoza (ex-Journey, Whitesnake), Tommy Aldridge (Whitesnake). It was co-produced by Michael Sweet and Alessandro Del Vecchio (Hardline, Revolution Saints). Hard to argue with a line-up like that. And the fact Michael Sweet isn’t even singing is a huge surprise. Nathan is a beast on vocals so this should be good.
