Apparently it's happening. One of the best bands that comes around every now and again. Can't wait!

Ha.
These dudes are from my former home town. I grew up there, saw them many times. They were an integral part of our local scene.
I'm interested to hear a 2024 release, bring it on!

I'm also from Florida but never got the chance to go see them - don't know why I never tried harder. Maybe next time I visit.

This is really great so far. Haven't lost a beat since the classics from the 2000s.

I love that they do everything in this really organic way, nothing sounding fake or anything... all done with care. Great riffs, wonderful leads. Lots of cool, catchy hooks.

Maybe their most keyboard heavy release, but what a good tone, what catchy melodies.

There's a lot of Deep Purple in this - I think that's a positive...

I've heard the album (once, a promo). It has the same things that I liked and the same things that I disliked about some of the old material, but knowing how much you loved it Empy, I'd guess you're going to enjoy this one too.

Yeah I've heard it. Really good... this type of classic rock, done this way, is just exactly what I'm into. What don't you like?

Barry, their guitarist, said he'd let me know when he got the CDs in at his own label... I'll pass it along to you all for sure.

^Awesome, cheers Emp. I went to the Iron Shield Records site but it wasn't particularly helpful. I'm resisting the urge to listen to it until I get a physical copy, so hopefully we don't have to wait too long.
