Here is the brand new video from the upcoming W.E.T. release titled Rise Up.  Whaddayathink?

Click HERE to check out the video.  Below is the EPK for the new album.

Cool dialog but no song to listen to.  One of the issues I had with their debut album is it sounded forced, cookie cuttered if-you-will.  Don't get me wrong, I liked their first album, there is some strong cuts on it, but I cant tell how much better this is from the snippets of songs in the video...  So I have to reserve judgment until I can hear the whole song...

Scott, look again.  I didn't realize what I posted at first.  It's fixed now.  Click the "HERE" link and it will take you to the actual video.  Sorry about that.

This is an absolute smash.  Very good song.  I'll be getting this one.

I'm liking this a lot so a SMASH for me. Now if the album would fall below $10, I'll get it! That's right, my new rules for this year. SO far I have spent.....$9.99 on one new release. Yeah!

Pretty good! Definitely want to hear more of this. Really tough environment to film a video in!! -4 degrees he said in the other video! Wow, don't know how the guitar players even faked moving their fingers!!

But my favorite thing in this video is the white guitar, with the black stripes, the one dude is playing! A 1984 or 85 Kramer Baretta. Although I still don't understand why any player (EVH included) would want to use a guitar with just one pick-up. Even if that one pick-up sounds amazing!

It's like a musicians equipment is their "weapon"...so why have just 1 pick-up? 2 pick-ups (90 percent of all electric guitars worldwide) gives you twice as many tone and sound options. I am confused about that. My Kramer Pacer Imperials have the hot Schaller pick-ups, both for treble playing and the bluesy, fatter sound provided by the second pick-up. Of course, that dude could certainly ask me how many videos I've been in...

[Jon]

Uhhhhh...none?

[Gordon Williams]

Uhhh...yes...so I was making fun of my musical career...SIGH.......

SMASH - I agree, I was a little scared by the teaser dialogue vid that is was going to be a little too commercial & soft, but to my surprise the song was very good! I was hard enough to keep my interest & the little guy's voice was a lot rougher than I expected, I hope he's featured more on the album.

"I was hard enough to keep my interest...". Is there something you're not telling us or was this maybe TMI?

[Mike Mills]

The song was heavy enough to keep my interest. Hope this clarifies things.
