And I play the guitar and write songs in my band the Knockout.

Used to copy these people's plays from childhood... Eddie Van Halen, Nuno Bettencourt, John Sykes... So I tried to melt their spirit into my music.

Hope you guys enjoy our songs. lml

It‘s a Re-recorded version of their first debut EP The New Reign, released in 2007, and ‘Glorious Day’ has been added. The songwriting, composition, and flow of riffs and rhythms were good, but the album was a bit disappointing, the recording quality was not good enough, but this album completely removed everything. There are reproductions of the riffs that are cut short with great sense, sharp drums that lead the flow, and keyboards that fit in the right place. This kind of re-recording is always welcome.

I fully sympathize with the Cosmicism user's intentions below. The commercialization of hard rock and metal that continued from the mid-1990s. Furthermore, the scene where lightness became the mainstream shows that time. However, any opinions are great because each person has different listening preferences. For me, the composition of "tremonti" is like a box office guarantee check without doubt. Would it be like an apple that is still half-cooked? Watching an artist's long journey is also a sublime act that can be done as a human being. Some songs may be boring, but I score them because they are just beginning. Track 1,3,9 is great

Dino and Keller were leading the animal drive in harmony, but they were no longer able to perform under this name by frontier records, and a few years later they immediately started as a band called jelusik. Although they tried to track their movements steadily for several years, it is very regrettable that jelusik's style is quite far from animal drive. Perhaps it is an unspoken pressure, the songs went off the existing line. Also, Dino is prioritizing collaboration with other musicians, and some fans may be satisfied with this, but I don't think this is the right direction. Of course, these are the only musicians based on hard rock, a genre that wants to annihilate. However, you have to think about the influence of bone marrow fans, and this kind of activity is enough to provoke a backlash from existing fans. As there is a track record of ep released under the title Back to the roots, I want them to go back to their roots, and this album shows comprehensive covers. In particular, monkey business and uncle tom's cabin are excellent. However, it is regrettable that their subsequent moves and coverings are regrettable. ... See More

Young strongman of the hard rock world of late. He continued his active activities and reorganized the band under his own name, and personally, music from the days of animal drive is my taste. I will keep an eye on him in the future.

The flame. This song is true masterpiece. Holy amazing song.

I remember my father taking me to school every morning when I was about maybe 8-9 years old. At that time, there was always music that my father played on CD player in the car, and it was Cheap trick and Billy joel . At a young age when I didn't know anything, I just got into the rhythm of the music and I was already a young fan of Cheap trick. I am a who was a big happy boy to me lol. I think they're all gray-haired grandfathers now, so I hope they're okay.

There are too many masterpieces of them to list them one by one, but to introduce them, there are the flame, i can't take it, downed and etc... They are really good songs, so I really recommend you to listen to them once in a while. As you all know that the power of music is great, when I listen to their music, I immediately think of my childhood, so I smile on my own. ... See More
