Here, in the halls of Rock is the New Roll, we are not typically fans of Frontiers Records and their record by numbers approach to recording their albums, but we may need to change our tune after spending some time with this song from Tommy DeCarlo. There is a serious mid ‘80s Boston, Foreigner, Journey vibe going on here that is very pleasing to our ears.

Video of the Day: Generation Radio – Why Are You Calling Me Now?
With a somewhat dubious relationship with Frontier Records, a label that brings old and new rockers together to put out formula-laden records releasing one and done albums that the bands rarely tour behind, may have hit on one this time. Featuring former members of Tom Petty, Rascall Flatts and Chicago the band Radio Generation is bringing back 80’s Rock in the Journey, Night Ranger, Whitesnake mold. Color our ears perked up.

Video of the Day: Inglorious – Glory Days
The classic rock meets the Tran Siberian Orchestra operatic bombast of this group should come as no surprise as lead singer Nathan James was with the band for many years before the formation of Inglorious. The new record, Ride to Nowhere, should be one of the Rock records of the year.
