Vega - Battlelines

Released September 8th, 2023 - Vega crushes it again, knocking out hits and taking names! Nick Workman's suave, crisp & clean vocals carry on a journey through their 8th studio album. 12 tracks on this endevor, each song has a clear message, and throughout the entire record, it encourages listeners to be your better self & push though, even when life is doing its best to kick you in the teeth. "Love to Hate You" is a breakup song, but still fits in this solid lineup. (My first favorite track from the album

"Heroes and Zeros" kicks it off right, and challenges listeners to look inside themselves & find out who they really are:

"Out of the dark, into the light

Will we run or will we fight"

Encouraging and uplifting - great solid effort! Looking forward to more great hits from these guys!

Eclipse - Megalomanium

Eclipse released their new album on September 1st - Megalomanium. Classic Eclipse sound, melodic rock, Erik Mårtensson pounds out catchy lyrics that will get you singing along in no time. Still waiting for my physical copy to arrive, because supporting the bands you like is a good thing!

In terms of sound - if you've been a past fan, nothing will detour you from their new material - it's largely more of the same. Everything sounds so clean & crisp, and with the exception of "Children of the Night" (slows it down just a bit, but still a great son) everything is fast paced and high energy, as it should be. It's difficult to pin down a favorite track out of the 11, but if I had to choose, I'd go with "I Don't Get It" & "Got it!"
