Wow , just listened through my phone at lunch and it's awesome!

It's very "iron maiden". Not bad.

New Jorn cover album promo-

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHK2JXL4HqU

Hm. I always like Jorn more when he's doing someone else's songs, so I'll maybe check the album out, out of curiosity. Some interesting song choices, and some more typical ones too.

wolfking · « **Reply #4413 on:** April 12, 2016, 05:45:24 AM »

Boom! haha.

Yeah, I like the sound of it as I said in the other thread. Was gonna post it here but the melodic rock thread was the first one I saw.

Would have liked a different Farnsy song, but what do you do. Great to see Farnsy get some recognition. Would love Jorn to do some Barnsy too.

Strange hearing Jorn singing Running Up That Hill, but nowhere near as strange as hearing him sing The Voice.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #4416 on:** April 12, 2016, 05:49:52 AM »

I'm not too familiar with Farnham, so I'm ok with him going for the obvious choice. I dug what Jorn has done with it. Here's the tracklist for anyone interested.

1. I Know There's Something Going On
2. Running Up That Hill
3. Rev On The Red Line
4. You're The Voice
5. Live To Win
6. Don't Stop Believin'
7. Killer Queen
8. Hotel California
9. Rainbow In The Dark
10. The Final Frontier
11. Stormbringer
12. Die Young

Surprised he hadn't already done Rainbow in the Dark, although Stormbringer is an old cover. It will be interesting to hear him take on Perry and Mercury.

Bolsters · « **Reply #4417 on:** April 12, 2016, 05:56:13 AM »

Don't Stop Believin' will be interesting awell. This might be alright, for a covers album.

Jorn is a beast of a singer but do we really need another covers album?

With some of the nice song selections here, I'm gonna go with a yes.

Beats the alternative of hearing his original material.

Only the last few, his early stuff is all quality.

Excluding his cover albums, I only have Lonely Are the Brave and Spirit Black, haven't bothered with anything since because the singles all sounded the same. Any recommendation?

bl5150 · « **Reply #4423 on:** April 12, 2016, 06:23:54 AM »

I can't even remember what i have from Jorn but there's one called The Gathering which is like a "best of" from his early work - might be worth a shot Blob.

wolfking · « **Reply #4424 on:** April 12, 2016, 06:25:05 AM »

The Gathering is a good collection.

Both Worldchanger and Out to Every Nation are bloody stellar albums IMO.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #4425 on:** April 12, 2016, 06:27:13 AM »

I'll check it out. I don't think I've heard anything from his earlier stuff. I've always liked Jorn's voice, and it's a shame I've liked so little of his music.

Try either the two I said or the safe bet of The Gathering that Brent mentioned.

Traveller wasn't bad... though, anything would have been better than Bring Heavy Rock to the Land - that album was turd.

I'd rank them:

Out to Every Nation
Lonely are the Brave
Worldchanger
Starfire
The Duke
Spirit Black
Traveller

I only have "Dio" by Jorn; which is another great covers album

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #4430 on:** April 12, 2016, 09:15:49 AM »

The Dio covers album was solid. Still prefer the playing and production on the original songs by a mile, but Jorn can definitely do justice to Dio.

It's pretty funny watching him sing pop while his facial expressions indicate he may be singing thrash

TAC · « **Reply #4434 on:** April 13, 2016, 03:27:55 AM »

Jorn's facial expressions are priceless. He has that I'mhavingsexandtakingashit look.

bl5150 · « **Reply #4435 on:** April 13, 2016, 03:38:29 AM »

Whenever he gets that "Fuck I am mean (and constipated)"look on his face , I want to play this for him

Fuck yeah, you should have saved this for my roulette!

This is weird, it's like they have no idea what they are trying to be. The guitarist to Jorn's right is seriously fucking annoying. Does he think he's in the Bay City Rollers or some shit?

Another classic Jorn cover;

A badass crow headed human DJ.

BlobVanDam · « **Reply #4440 on:** April 13, 2016, 07:53:41 AM »

Yo Jorndawg, I heard you liked the album cover, so I made an album cover with the album cover on it.

jjrock88 · « **Reply #4441 on:** April 13, 2016, 08:22:14 AM »

I'd like to know what shirt Jorn is wearing on the Jorn shirt on the Crow.

Stadler · « **Reply #4443 on:** April 13, 2016, 02:00:33 PM »

That did nothing for me. Good voice, but seemed a little one-dimensional to me.

And I'd like to know how he didn't fall down the stairs (around 0:45 in).

bl5150 · « **Reply #4444 on:** April 15, 2016, 12:19:12 AM »

Big 24 hrs for new releases .....amongst others Treat, Dynazty, The Defiants, Ace Frehley, Thunderstone. I'll hopefully get a chance to check out most of them over the weekend.
