My Sunday Song – “He Will Provide” by Inglorious

Published on by 2loud2oldmusic1 Comment

For My Sunday Song #438, we are talking “He Will Provide” by the band Inglorious. The song is from their 2021 album ‘We Will Ride’ which was released on February 12 of that year. This is not a band that charts here in the U.S. as most people here probably have never heard of them which is a shame because lead singer Nathan James might be one of the best new singers out there…period!! The rest of the band are no slouches either and consist of Danny Dela Cruz and Dan Stevens on dual guitar roles, Vinnie Colla on bass and Phil Beaver on drums.

The song was written by lead singer Nathan James and the main riff came from Dan Stevens. Nathan wanted to write a song about an end of times vibe where everyone was waiting on their Savior to return and redeem them all. The people believe their Lord is all powerful and will provide for them at the end it all, thus the title. The song is about Faith, overcoming life’s challenges and God’s Grace. And funny thing, Nathan is not really religious. He simply finds religion fascinating. Ultimately, the song is a message of hope and encouragement.

The song was influenced heavily by Scorpion’s Uli Jon Roth who Nathan was listening to at the time and Dan came up with that riff. The rhythm guitar has a middle-eastern vibe to it. I believe Nathan once said something to the effect that the song’s real role is to showcase the dual guitar work of the band and man does it every do that. The riffs at the beginning are simply heavy and rocking and that dual guitar solo is freaking insane. Over-the-top and dramatic which fits the song perfectly. The guitars make the song, Nathan’s vocals are simply icing on the cake. The killer bass work and drumming are the sprinkles.

My Sunday Song – “Sunset Station” by Jorn Lande

Published on by 2loud2oldmusic5 Comments

For My Sunday Song #118, I am going to highlight “Sunset Station” by Jorn Lande. I know most people in the U.S. probably aren’t familiar with Jorn and that is a shame.  Jorn Lande is a Rock/Metal singer from Norway and has been in bands such as Ark, Millenium and Vagabond.  However, I came to know him thanks to Melodicrock.com and his solo work as well as with Power Metal band Masterplan.  I even highlighted him in a post way back in my early days on this blog (check it out – Jorn Lande).

One of my favorite songs by Mr. Lande is “Sunset Station” off his 2nd solo album called ‘Worldchanger’.  The album was released back in 2001 and really stood out for me (not in that year – I came across it a few years later).  This song in particular jumped out of the speakers and grabbed hold of me.

Jorn’s vocals are solid and a cross between David Coverdale of Whitesnake and Ronnie James Dio (both obvious influences on Jorn).  That alone was enough to catch my attention.  He sings with such power and lays it all out every time. Musically, it is loud, heavy and very melodic but more metal than melodic rock.   The guitar work is another attention grabber for me as it just screams and comes at you with blistering veracity.
