T’PAU – Bridge Of Spies [Remastered Expanded Edition] (2015)

T'PAU - Bridge Of Spies [Remastered Expanded Edition] front
From a personal point of view, in the mid ’80s my taste in music was fixated on melodic hard rock and AOR so T’Pau (oddly named after a Star Trek character) seemed to have some pretty good tunes and just enough guitars and keyboards to catch my attention. The fact that the music videos for the singles seemed to be on MTV every five minutes may have helped.

The Underground Rebels – Insult To Injury (2007)

Front

Debut full length release from THE UNDERGROUND REBELS. Formed in 2004 in the city of sin and an off shoot of the Canadian Glam band THE LOVING DEAD, THE UNDERGROUND REBELS burst onto the scene with their debut full length album ‘Insult To Injury’ over a decade ago. Rounding out the fearsome foursome are ex Faster Pussycat members Brent Muscat and Kurt Frohlich, who seem to channel their influences of Cheap Trick and T-Rex
