For the most part, my favorite music is 80's big hair metal bands. I thought I would critique some of the newest albums out.

Night Ranger newest release is Hole in the Sun. The band went through a change by firing co-lead guitarist Jeff Watson and getting Joel Hoekstra. Now, I am extra critical of Night Ranger as they are my ALL TIME favorite band and I expect great things from them. I know it may not be fair, but it's my review and I can do what I want!!!! :)

Here is where I would rank this CD.

1. Midnight Madness
2. Dawn Patrol
3. 7 Wishes
4. Big Life
(big drop off from here)
5. Man In Motion
6. Neverland
7. Hole in the Sun
8. Seven
9. Hits, Acoustic and Rarities

Pretty bad when Neverland ranks higher. Yeah there are a couple good guitar licks and a couple decent songs.


Tracks and comments:
1. Tell Your Vision - good guitar licks, would fit into the bottom of the Midnight Madness album.
2. Drama Queen - Sounds like it came off of Seven if that tells you anything
3. Your Gonna Hear It from Me - good guitar. This would be the 2nd best song on Neverland (Kong)
4. Whatever Happened - bleck, retch, gag
5. There Is Life - Sucky balled. What has happened to the best ballad rock band????
6. Rock Star - Song starts with such promise, then <groan>.
7. Hole in the Sun - Ok, this is the title track so you expect it to be good. Yet here is another song that would be good on Seven.
8. Fool In Me - See comments of track 5.
9. White Knuckle Ride - Decent power licks, not a bad song.
10. Revelation 4 AM - I was starting to hate it until the chorus started. Not bad. Not great, but not bad.
11. Wrap it Up - Best guitar licks and 2nd best song on this CD.
12. Being - Too bad I'll never hear this CD again, because after this song I was jabbing sharp pencils in my ears.

Only thing missing in so much music today is talent.
