What a fucking terrible song.  Fuckin' hell.  Maybe my tastes have just changed but as Chad said, his first album inspired this thread and is a brilliant slab or AOR/melodic rock.  This makes me want to puke.  A guy with a voice like this shouldn't be singing average crap like this.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.

The Spirits of Fire single is solid. Definitely Sounds like a Roy Z production, It also has more of a Judas Priest vibe than some of the stuff Ripper actually did with priest.
Do you read Sutter Cane?

and shite video (shock horror)   :)

The only thing making that even remotely listenable is the power of his voice.  He certainly doesn't have a voice for metal but that debut album of his struck the right balance.

Exactly, it was a perfect mix of AOR, melodic rock and hard rock.

That Spirits of Fire song was pretty meh. Ripper hasn't done anything worth a damn since Iced Earth.

As much as I am a Ripper fan, this is true, unfortunately.

Come on, that's not true. He's made some great guest appearances, and as I said, his time in Iced Earth was great.

We’re hanging a legend on some guest appearances? I can honestly say I haven’t liked anything I’ve heard by him, though I haven’t listened to the Iced Earth.

I actually, I retract my statement, as I obviously didn't put any thought into it.  The first Charred Walls is excellent and Perpetual Flame likewise.

Nice..........hadn't seen they had something new out.  :lol

They have had a fleeting mention here in the past -long before Fabio discovered them :)

I lied when I said I had no Maiden oddities . I just went and typed in "Number Of........" into iTunes and up comes Italian comedy metal band Nanowar and their phone sex song "166 - 166 The Number Of The Bitch"  :lol

Spirits of Fire finally have a release date on Frontiers. Album drops Feb. 22nd. Still waiting on samples and such. I'm looking forward to this one.

Ripper Owens - Vocals
Chris Caffrey - Guitar
Steve DiGiorgio - Bass
Mark Zonder - Drums
It's a whole-ass injustice that Zonder hasn't done anything prog-related in years and hasn't performed with Fates Warning because he wanted to downsize on his musical activities, but will play in a random supergroup type of thing.

At first, I had no fucking clue.  Then, I put on my Columbo coat.  Comments reference "Nathan".  Dude in the video references performing with Inglorious.  Google tells me there's a Nathan James singing for Inglorious.

I still have no fucking clue who he is, but I know his name now.

Sorry for the confusion -  I would've thought he was pretty well known by those visiting this thread - Inglorious and has been a lead vocalist for Trans Siberian Orchestra

I like the comment about 14 replies down. "Oh dear, very Brentish." :lol

I saw Nathan in the comments. Didn't hear him say Inglorious. Thought about searching for singers named Nathan. Posted here instead.

I know that this isn't Frontiers, and I know that they've been discussed before...But damn, The Night Flight Orchestra is the best thing that has happened to my AOR world for the last couple of years. Also, they released new music not long ago!

Hey mate.  They are indeed amazing, and while they are the only band at the moment that would really fit in this thread and do it proud, they have their own thread with heaps of discussion.

I need to listen to the last album more.

I didn't hear much in it that I haven't heard already on their previous albums.  Enjoyable sure.  Memorable?  Not really.  I feel it's similar to Dynazty ... the same thing album after album.

Yeah, there was nothing on it that we didn't hear on the one before.  I think they rushed the last one slightly.

Sounds very similar to the last one, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
