Midnite Sky “Blood, Sweat And A Little More” The Stuttgart band MIDNITE SKY has been standing for over 15 years for melodic hard rock that American high-gloss bands such as Dokken, Van Halen or Mötley Crüe established in the 80s. Sprawling riffs, polyphonic choral singing, tight rhythm work are fused into catchy rocking songs as you know and appreciate them from that era.

With “Blood, Sweat And A Little More” the band now presents their second full-fledged long player.

“Only Human” is everything one expects from a Ted Poley release, with the added “crunch” of Vic Rivera, showcasing an extra special set of songs. While plenty of catchiness, the songs prioritizes riffs over melody.

The duo teamed up in late 2005 for the album ‘Collateral Damage’ which was released as a Ted Poley solo record by Kivel Records in 2006. However they choose the Poley/Rivera moniker for the first time here.
