Return of Keith Sweat and LSG!: Adrenaline Mob With Lizzy Hale of Halestorm, My Darkest Days

"COME UNDONE"  ADRENALINE MOB Ft. LIZZY HALE

Unexpected new cover by a new band, Adrenaline Mob, with help from Halestorm's amazing lead singer.   "Come Undone" was the last hit for Duran Duran during their heyday before their 2010 comeback.   Adrenaline Mob is a new Supergroup made up of members of Dream Theatre, Fozzy, and Static X.

"PERFECT"    MY DARKEST DAYS

"How dare she be this perfect" ;)   This CD should be a big seller, it's loaded with 3 or 4 potential singles.  My Darkest Days is a Chad Kroeger (Nickelback) project so you know it's a band built for rock radio.  "Perfect" sounds like a hit.   The first single "Casual Sex" isn't as memorable.

"KNEW IT ALL ALONG"  KEITH SWEAT, GERALD LEVERT, and JOHNNY GILL

Oh yeah, the return of LSG!!   Levert, Sweat, and Gill released their first CD in 1997 with the big hits "My Body" and "Curious" with LL Cool J.   They're back with a new single that features all three at the top of their game.   Classic R&B like this is missing from the charts today, old school jam with HEART, SOUL, and great PASSION!

 

Open Your Eyes, Life Is Beautiful: SIXX A.M. , Ozzy Osbourne, and My Darkest Days

"ACCIDENTS CAN HAPPEN"  SIXX A.M.

Nikki Sixx's book, The Heroin Diaries:  A Year In the Life Of A Shattered Rockstar, is raw, scary, vulnerable, and a view from rock bottom.   The book was written in the mid 80's just prior to Nikki's overdose and celebrated Motley Crue's wild debauchery, insane antics, while at the same time sharing Nikki's depression and dependency to heroin.   The book resulted in a powerful CD led by the big hit "Life Is Beautiful". This was the 2nd single and equally amps the emotion with its chorus of redemption and second chances.

"I JUST WANT YOU"   OZZY OSBOURNE

Ozzmosis has been labeled one of the weakest of Ozzy's solo CDs.   Released in 1991, the album was described as slick, polished, and less metal.    Yet, it contained collaborations with Lemmy from Motorhead, Steve Vai, Geezer Butler from Black Sabbath, and Zak Wylde.   "I Just Want You" has more of a modern rock sound but the greatest artists do need to reinvent themselves at times.  This song was co-written by Jim Vallance (Bryan Adams' writer).

"THE WORLD BELONGS TO ME"   MY DARKEST DAYS
Released on the Saw 3D soundtrack, we were introduced to a new Canadian rock band.    We experienced an invasion of Canadians to rock radio in the late 70's to early 90's but it's great to see they're coming back (Three Days Grace, Arcade Fire, and Nickelback).  My Darkest Days just released their 2nd CD and I look forward to reviewing it soon.
