Despite the delay of a few month, the new album of Paul Laine (v), Bruno Ravel (b) and Rob Marcello (g) is a true highlight of the genre. Ear-candy for fans of DANGER DANGER is the fact that Steve West plays drums here which makes it 100% the line-up of DD 1994-2004, the one with Canadian vocalist Laine on vocals. It\u2019s pretty much the record DANGER DANGER fans are waiting for in a long time. If \u201cHollywood In Headlights\u201c or \u201cHold On Tonite\u201c for instance don\u2019t bring you tears of joy and good memories of the times when melodic rock and AOR commercially produced hit after hit, you\u2019re absolutely wrong here. A quite contemporary production bridges the gap between now and then with a popish tune like \u201cAlive\u201c for instance. Songwriting-wise there are no fillers. Thank you DANGER DA\u2026.well, THE DEFIANTS! Finest stuff for fans of DANGER DANGER, TRIXTER or TREAT. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>8,5\/10<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Martin Stark<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tracklist:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Love Is The Killer <\/li><li>Standing On The Edge<\/li><li>Hollywood In Headlights<\/li><li>Fallin&#8217; For You<\/li><li>Hold On Tonite<\/li><li>Allnighter<\/li><li>U X&#8217;d My Heart<\/li><li>It Goes Fast<\/li><li>Stay<\/li><li>Alive<\/li><li> Drink Up<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Defiants - &quot;U X&#039;D My Heart&quot; (Official Music Video) #RockAintDead\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nQmUkCWCYME?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>The Defiants &#8211; &#8220;U X&#8217;D My Heart&#8221; (Official Video)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Defiants &#8211; Zokusho Label: Frontiers Records Release date: September 13th, 2019 Website: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TheDefiantsRockBand \u201cZokusho\u201c, Japanese for \u201enext chapter\u201c, immediately&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":386,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33,35],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-328","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-aor-melodic-rock","category-media-reviews","wpcat-33-id","wpcat-35-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aormusic.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/328","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aormusic.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aormusic.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aormusic.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aormusic.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=328"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.aormusic.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/328\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":415,"href":"https:\/\/www.aormusic.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/328\/revisions\/415"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aormusic.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/386"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.aormusic.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=328"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aormusic.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=328"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.aormusic.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=328"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
