Dale Thompson updates

My band mate Dale Thompson is going to be releasing a lot of albums in 2018.  He and his brother Troy and working on a new BRIDE album, and from what I have heard it is going to be a big hit.  It returns to the old school "Snakes" type grooves.  He has two Brazilian projects as well, one called N.O.G. (No Other God) that is super technical prog type heavy with lots of blazing solos and amazing playing, and one called Perpetual Paranoia that is crazy heavy and more bare bones.  We will probably release another The World Will Burn album later in the year, but I have a indie "folkbilly" project that I am working on right now, so I am focused on that for the next few months.  I have written about 20 songs for the TWWB album but I am missing a real front runner single right now.  It has been challenging.  We are doing a concept album and want to be weirder and freakier than our other two.  
Hopefully 2018 will have some good releases.

I moved this out of the new releases for 2018 as that is for people to tell what new music they have acquired this year.  I felt that more people would see this and possibly respond if it had it's own place out in the main room.

I am definitely interested in the new Bride album and have supported their pledge drive.  I am also on board with the new The World Will Burn album.  I want to hear the other two before I jump on board with them.

I have heard some samples of both NOG and Perpetual Paranoia and they are very different but both super cool.  Neither is as experimental as TWWB but they are both super heavy and really cool sounding. Since Dale is somewhat "flooding" the market with new material, we have decided to make the next TWWB album pretty far out there...more experimental and conceptual.  I will talk to Dale and see if they will let me post some preview snippets on here for you guys to hear what these new bands sound like.

So are Dale and Michael Sweet in some sort of competition to see who can be heading up more projects?  It seems Ted Kirkpatrick has pulled back.  Oh yeah, I forgot Jimmy Brown.  Not that I have a problem with any of it except I don't have the disposable income to keep up with them all.

Right now, Dale is in the lead with a possibility of FOUR projects dropping this year.  Jimmy and Michael have to step it up.  While Michael is with Stryper and Sweet/Lynch, they seem to like alternating years.  Jimmy should have both Deliverance and Eraserhead albums out this year.

I'm very interested to the new Bride album too.

I don't really do crowd funding stuff, but when Bride's album is available I'll be waiting in line!

At this point, I don't believe anyone anymore when they say it's the last Bride/Deliverance/whatever album. Because that's been proven wrong so many times by now.
