New Orden Ogan album is pretty solid.  Very similar to Gunman but a bit more consistent IMO.  Solid power metal from start to finish  :metal

Sad to hear of the passing of Gerri Miller - the driving force behind Metal Edge magazine.  Those of us who remember the times when magazines were IT in terms of keeping informed (particularly in Australia where everyone bar the absolute biggest bands were largely invisible) will likely remember Gerri to some degree. 

R.I.P.

I meant to comment on this. I'll be honest, I never really bothered with Metal Edge. Seemed like it exploded in the late 80's, but it never really compared to Kerrang.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

Check this lads, it's nice.

That's Gregg's doppelgänger, for sure.

Nice track.

Guitar player standing on a mountain top is so 80s  ;D or is this because of social distancing?

That was cool - who was singing?  All I can find is that he used different musicians, but they haven't named any yet.

Edit - read the Youtube comments (I never read those) and saw the singer's name.  Kind of cool to see a non-metal singer involved.

I haven't followed him for a while.  Get a real Steve Vai vibe from that track truthfully.   Not bad.

Not sure where to put this but..

https://bravewords.com/news/charlie-benante-and-friends-to-release-ep-of-rush-covers-for-november-record-store-day-subdivisions-performance-video-streaming

Charlie has a Rush Covers EP, but the article states that he's releases all of the tracks from his quarantine covers as a full length album....for charity.

Charlie is tha man!

I preferred his new age albums to the METAL overload he's gone for in recent years, but I like these J-pop covers he does. Hes a hell of a player but I can't watch him play. That picking stroke is just too weird

New track from Brother Against Brother, a duets album with some Brazilian dudes by the looks of things. zones has a great voice. And if you don’t like the song the young lady in the video may keep your interest. It did mine.

Yeah, I loved his album 'Scenes'.  I think Kitaro produced it.  I got to see him live in 2019 without having heard any of his newer metal stuff.  And, it was a killer show.  His band is phenomenal.

Jorn and Russell certainly have a lot to answer for.

I’ve really enjoyed their stuff over lockdown. Chris Laney gets this music. His solo albums are great and his production on Crazy Lixx’s New Religion album was excellent.

I thought I’d signed up for the album on their Kickstarter but it seems I didn’t actually do it. I only realised when I went to complain that they hadn’t sent the cd.

Tony can still bring it in the studio but the song itself I didn't think was anything special.
Do you read Sutter Cane?

Saw that the other day - the boys got talent but the Mohawk will have to go. 😁 I’d listen to that all day over Plant.
