Las Vegas hard rockers ADELITAS WAY have released their new single, "I Get Around", on most major digital retail outlets. The track, which can be streamed below, is taken from the band's forthcoming EP, "Deserve This", due on March 17. ADELITAS WAY is currently in the midst of a successful Pledge Music campaign for its fourth full-length album. "We are in the jam room preparing to write, record and release our [new CD]!" states frontman Rick DeJesus. "This album will not be marketed by dinosaur corporate suits, but by a team that we are putting together that will finally see us taking our music global! "In our eight years at a major label, we NEVER had our music released worldwide! We want to change this and want YOU to be a MASSIVE part of helping us spread our music across the world!"Two new studio tracks are available as instant downloads now to all fans who become Pledgers for the new album. "Deserve This" was produced by Matt Dougherty (AIRBOURNE, MEGADETH, STAIND, DISTURBED) and ADELITAS WAY at Groovemaster Studios. The band is currently on the road as part of the SnoCore tour alongside FLYLEAF, FRAMING HANLEY and FIT FOR RIVALS. Formed in the late 2000s by lead vocalist Rick DeJesus and Trevor Stafford, ADELITAS WAY, which also includes Andrew Cushing and Robert Zakaryan, released its self-titled debut album in July 2009 on Virgin. The CD's first single, "Invincible", became a Top 5 Active Rock smash, making its way into numerous television spots including Fox Sports Network, the THQ video game "Raw Vs. Smackdown" and the "CSI Miami" finale. It also served as the theme song for the weekly "WWE Superstars" show.ADELITAS WAY's sophomore effort, "Home School Valedictorian", arrived in the summer of 2011 and it spawned four Top 5 singles, including two No. 1 hits at Rock radio. The record was the band's highest-selling album to date, shifting over 150,000 copies and over 1 million singles.At the end of 2012, ADELITAS WAY began working on its third album, which would be the band's first to be co-written by Zakaryan. In July 2013, they entered the studio with Grammy Award-winning producer Nick Raskulinecz (FOO FIGHTERS, MARILYN MANSON, EVANESCENCE) to record "Stuck". The album was released July 29, 2014 and produced the Top 10 single "Dog On A Leash".ADELITAS WAY has toured with GUNS N' ROSES, SHINEDOWN, CREED, ALTER BRIDGE, THREE DAYS GRACE, HALESTORM, THEORY OF A DEADMAN, BREAKING BENJAMIN, THE PRETTY RECKLESS and GODSMACK.

    • Whichever tier of thrash metal you consigned Sacred Reich back in the 80's/90's they still had their moments.  "Ignorance" & "Surf Nicaragura" did a great job of establishing the band, whereas "The American Way" just got a little to comfortable and accessible (the title track grates nowadays) for my ears.  A couple more records better left forgotten about and then nothing for twenty three years.  2019 alone has now seen three releases from Phil Rind and co.  A live EP, a split EP with Iron Reagan and now a full length.

      Notable addition to the ranks for the current throng of releases is former Machine Head sticksman, Dave McClean.  Love or hate Machine Head, McClean is a more than capable drummer and his presence here is felt from the off with the opening and title track kicking things off with some real gusto.  'Divide & Conquer' and 'Salvation' muddle along nicely, never quite reaching any quality that would make my balls tingle but comfortable enough.  The looming build to 'Manifest Reality' delivers a real punch when the song starts proper.  Frenzied riffs and drums with shots of lead work to hold the interest.


      There's a problem already though (I know, I am such a fucking mood hoover).  I don't like Phil's vocals.  I never had if I am being honest.  The aggression to them seems a little forced even when they are at their best on tracks like 'Manifest Reality'.  When he tries to sing it just feels weak though ('Salvation') and tracks lose real punch.  Give him a riffy number such as 'Killing Machine' and he is fine with the Reich engine (probably a poor choice of phrase) up in sixth gear.  For every thrashy riff there's a fair share of rock edged, local bar act rhythm aplenty too.

      Let's not poo-poo proceedings though, because overall I actually enjoy "Awakening".  It is stacked full of catchy riffs that are sticky on the old ears.  Whilst not as raw as perhaps the - brilliant - artwork suggests with its black and white, tattoo flash sheet style design it is enjoyable enough.  Yes, 'Death Valley' & 'Something to Believe' have no place here, saved only by Arnett and Radziwill's lead work but 'Revolution' is a fucking 80's thrash heyday throwback to the extent that if you turn the TV on during it you might catch a new episode of Cheers!

    • Full length number 19 from overkill certainly makes a splash in the energy stakes, I mean there's some modern thrash bands that are a good two decades younger than Overkill who can only hope to achieve the levels of spunk that New Jersey's finest produce here.  That in itself is an achievement, for a band of Overkill's stature and reputation to be able to still sound relevant four decades into their career is no mean feat.  Even in the albums weaker moments it never gets redundant and the energy levels remain high.  There's a real sense of a band in a state of some renewed vigour, helped in no small part by the addition of Jason Bittner on drums.  The former Flotsam & Jetsam skinsman is nothing short of superb throughout "The Wings of War" and seems to have squeezed a little extra out of the rest of his peers.

      The album kicks of with a great build to opening track "Last Man Standing" and for the first 4 tracks of the album the Overkill crew stomp, bash and groove their way to a solid level of consistency.  The lead work is of particular note and Blitz sounds as sneery and scathing as ever.  The album is well produced and mixed too with all parts of the thrash machine audible as the five piece hammer away at your skull with the usual blend of chugging riffs and infectious anthems.  


      There are weak moments as mentioned but they are more a victim of how good the strong tracks are.  In it's own right "Distortion" is a solid enough - if not slightly varied a journey from the last offering - but it just doesn't stand up well against a "Bat Shit Crazy" or a "Head of a Pin".  As the album draws to a close you get the increasing impression that the last few tracks are rescued really by some great solos and stomping skin work which is a shame because trimming of a couple of tracks may have made this less obvious. 

      4/5
