Brydesdale

Looking forward to this album!

Musically I kind of dig it (almost has a 70's rock kind of vibe).  I just can't seem to get into Dale's vocal style much anymore though.  Also not sure I could handle a song that used the term "White Privilege" more than once.

I like his style, but he just seems to be everywhere now.  While he thinks he is at the top of his game, some of his output has me wondering if he isn't stretching himself too thin.

I like the vibe of this, but didn't listen long enough to really evaluate the lyrics.

I completely agree with Staybrite,.

I kind of get a "Snakes" vibe going on, and as long as the rest of the album is as good, then I'll be getting this one.

I don't have many of Dales recent projects, but thought the last Bride was pretty good, and N.O.G. was great.

I completely agree with Fundy.

Well that's not good.  I need more people to completely agree with me so I feel validated.

I agree with Chris (sorry, Gary  ). It's okay but definitely not the best. Now, Michael Sweet's Ten is top-notch.

Here to say I still agree with Staybrite.

Sounds good musically but I don't care for the vocal delivery. Doesn't mean I don't like it but something about it seems off.

I listened to the whole song.  It definitely is not Dale's best.  The singing seems "phoned in".  There needs to be some vocal harmonies to help with the hook.  There is no real solo to draw you in, either.  The rest of the album better be better than this if they hope to achieve much success at all.

I think he's doing too much and doesn't concentrate on a project very long.

For some reason I got the impression that he was just a "singer for hire" on pretty much all of these recent projects (you know, not contributing to much, or possibly any of the song-writing process).

He seems to be in a lot musical projects now.
Maybe you are righ Black Rider.

I think that depends largely on whether you want him to write or not.  I am betting that he is cheaper to work with if he contributes lyrics as he would get half writer's credit and half any royalties from the song if you had a hit.  If the song or album was a big success, the long term payout may be greater than just taking a one time payment and being done.

Interesting.
