Joel Hoekstra has a new solo album coming up in a couple of days.

That's a great review! Makes me want to get the album. I love how he framed the vocals in the last paragraph.
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

Listened to the two tracks in the link and felt like I was back in 1988...and I was okay with that.
Is all that we see or seem, but a dream within a dream?

That man can flat out PLAY, and if that had a more melodic vocalist - I'm struggling for a name, but someone with a little more "bright" and "soar" to their voice - that would be a contender for album of the year no problem.    Something lighter than "Allen/Soto" but not as sugary as "Shaw/Blades".

The riff in the latest video is that 8ps riff that should really be stirred now.
