Remastered by Rob Coldwell of Bombworks Sound BRIDE – DROP Unique, Alt-Rock, Different, Grungy… there are many different words that one might describe DROP from Christian Metal Sensation BRIDE.

Dale and his brother Troy were the Axl and Slash of the Christian Rock Scene. Bad-ass (yes, I said it), yet their first albums were glam metal. Not that there is anything wrong with that. Yet this album just sowed up on the scene as a surprise. If you were expecting more glam metal, like Trixter or Poison, this was much closer to Guns and Roses meets Pearl Jam and Mumford and Sons. And although many that tried their hands at converting their 80’s metal to more of an alt-grunge failed miserably, Bride did something rather unique while trying to say re

Mastedon – Lofcaud

The fourth album from Angelica might be Dennis Cameron’s shinning moment. Loaded with guitar shredding and melody it’s almost to Angelic what Against the Law was to Stryper, musically their best album. Simply put it’s a AOR masterpiece. Songs like the opening track GOTTA GET READY and OPEN YOUR MIND really showcase Dennis’s amazing guitar chops. This man (Dennis) fly’s all over the fretboard. The acoustic intro of DON’T STOP really proves however that Dennis is much more than a shredder. This album has so much rhythm and feel to it. Yeah it’s melodic rock but it’s pure music perfection from the melodic overtones of TIME IS ALL IT TAKES and I CAN HARDLY WAIT TO SEE, to the rockin’ tunes of RUNNING WILD. It’s Angelica in perfect form.

All four Fighter albums are being remastered and will include bonus tracks, unreleased songs and more. The Fighter 4 CD bundle includes:

The Waiting + 4 Song EP, Bang the Drum + 3 Unreleased Songs, Amy Wolter – Hit Me In the Heart and Fighter – The Fighter Demos (9 Songs)
Fighter was a Melodic AOR Christian Rock band. They released two albums in the early 90’s. Fighter’s first album THE WAITING was released in 1991 and BANG THE DRUM was released in 1992. Vocals were handled both by Amy Wolter and Sean Murphy. They played arena style rock with hooks and melodies that rocked. Dual vocals proved to work great for them and provided dynamics not seen by a lot of other bands.
