BRIDE – DROP (25TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION) CD Remastered, Legends of Rock 2020


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

ANGELICA – TIME IS ALL IT TAKES (CD) REMASTERED 2020 GIRDER RECORDS


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.
