Except perhaps for Crush released in 2000, few albums really succeeded in catching the attention of critics. Despite everything, the group continued to sell millions of albums and to fill arenas on tour (with concerts based on their material of the Eighties of course). The coming of Lost Highway thus left me rather indifferent and this is why I awaited a hollow in the release of major albums to write some lines about it. At first, this new record can seem adventurous whereas the group makes a crossing between its usual hard rock style and contemporary country music. It’s an interesting mixture which makes the group progress in a beautiful way. On the other hand, the band remains to its best when it presents catchy pop melodies like it’s the case for the title-song, the ballad “(You Want To) Make A Memory” and “Whole Lot Of Leavin'”.

Featured Review: Avenged Sevenfold - Avenged Sevenfold After the City Of Evil album which brought them at the stardom level, the guys of Avenged Sevenfold were very excited to go back into the studio to record a new album. They were locked up by themselves in the studio to work on a record which would serve “to blast some heavy shit out the window” for their young fans. So, we discover now this very simple eponymous album which wants to be a return to the basis of metal with many winks at the Eighties, while preserving their unique rhythm section and their solos in the Yngwie Malmsteen style. After the excellent “Critical Acclaim” and “Almost Easy” which start strongly the CD, we lose certain metal elements which made them so unique on their previous 1 of 10 1/8/2008 9:26 AM Music reviews http://www.musicomania.ca/en/music_reviews.htm#Elvis%20Presley album. Some tracks, too much polished, rather bring us in a common pop rock sound. The occasional inclusion of violin, piano, brass and even of a children’s choir (on “Unbound (The Wild Ride)”) can give the impression of a richer sound, but it has the opposite effect whereas one feels a discordance with the base of their style.

  • Band and Single Announcement May 15, 2015 0
    ! FEATURING ADAM GONTIER AND MIKE MUSHOK RELEASE DEBUT SINGLE ‘BETTER PLACE’ AND ANNOUNCE UPCOMING ALBUM ! ! WATCH SAINT ASONIA TEASER CLIP HERE New York, NY (May 15, 2015) – Two of the biggest forces in rock radio of the past decade have announced the formation of a new band, SAINT ASONIA. The debut single, “Better Place” is available now on iTunes and can be streamed on Spotify. With 26 top ten rock singles and seventeen #1 hit songs between them, Adam Gontier, former lead singer of Three Days Grace, and Mike Mushok, lead guitarist of Staind, have already been referred as a “supergroup,” but Gontier is quick to dismiss the moniker. “Truth is we’re more like refugees that just really hit it off creatively,” he laughs. Adds Mushok, “I was looking for a project to do while Staind is on hiatus and the opportunity to work with Adam on writing and recording new music was something I just couldn’t pass up.” Rounding out the band are drummer Rich Beddoe (formerly of Finger Eleven) and bassist/background vocalist Corey Lowery (Dark New Day, Stereomud, Eye Empire). Produced by Johnny K. (Sevendust, Disturbed, Megadeth), SAINT ASONIA is currently finishing its debut full-length album, to be released this summer. The band will also be hitting the road shortly for several concerts across North America.
