SMASH OR TRASH (MICHAEL SCHENKER - MISS CLAUSTROPHOBIA)

[RJhog (Admin)]

Here's the brand new song from Michael Schenker.  What do you think?

[TageRyche]

David Reece was the singer for Accept that you are thinking of. I saw them on that same tour but they were the middle act on a bill with W.A.S.P. headlining and Metal Church opening.

 

My review of the Queensryche CD can be found on the CD Reviews forum here.

I do seem to remember Accept being a middle act, but I cant recall who the 1st band was.

And I do remember reading your review now...I think I remember you saying it was a definite departure from their norm, but that you still enjoyed it? I'll go back and re-read it. Congrats, by the way, on getting paid to write about something we all love...listening to music! But I actually like the new Queensryche. The second half of it is not as enjoyable as the first half, but I'm glad I bought it.

To Jon, I do not know of a part two for "Tales Of Rock n Roll".

I do remember reading that Michael wanted it to be like a 25th year anniversary record for MSG...which is why he had all of his past singers do at least one song. I cant even remember the "new" guys name from that record!

But I recall that MIchael was sort of freaking out, because the recording for "Tales" was taking longer than he thought, and he did not want his 25th anniversary record to come out in the 26th year!

So, maybe that is why some of the tracks are like partial songs? I have no clue, really. There is a total of 19 songs on it...but at least half seem to be less than 3 minutes long. Either way, it's a decent listen, and very good guitar playing from Michael. Good luck in finding it cheap...hope you can! If only I could figure out how to post music, I'd post it for all to hear.

Gordon, I'll get a private message to you soon about posting.  It's really quite easy.

[TageRyche]

I get paid?

By who?

[Gordon Williams]

Umm...sorry, I just assumed I guess that you got paid by the magazine, or publications, that you write for. If not...well, you should! Tell 'em I said so!

[TageRyche]

I wrote for a website from 2005 to 2008. That's it though.

Look at this lineup ...

 

Michael Schenker - Guitars; Michael Voss - Vocals; Herman Rarebell - Drums; Pete Way - Bass; Wayne Findlay - Keys

 

Something has gotta be great in here, dont ya think?  Anyone going to pick it up and post in an NMC?

[Gordon Williams]

I will buy it for sure. What do you know about Michael Voss? Maybe I was judging too harshly from just one song.

[Jon]

Michael Voss from Mad Max? And no, that's not a joke. There was a band called Mad Max in the 80's.

[Scott]

I have no idea...
