Order the CD and/or vinyl from the GRR Store HERE ALBUM TRACK BY TRACK Automaton An atmospheric introduction to what is about to come. Includes a live sound bite from the band’s original vocalist the late Dave Lepard, pulling on the memories for the hard-core fans. Together Whatever A true party anthem! 'Together Whatever' explodes into raging guitars and scorching vocals, this is a tribute to the decadent good old days and the bands early roots. Shine On In this all or nothing, going to the top, driving wall of sound. With this song the band sets its album mission. There are no compromises. No Man's Land It’s a story about looking inwards and a hard charge moving forward, no matter what the cost. Sung with powerful and precise vocals, surrounded by thick driving bass, heavy guitar chops and rock-solid drums. Darker Minds A powerful rock ballad, thick with layered vocal harmonies and driving rhythms. A song about feeling that something is not right and questioning if change is on the way. Dead Crusade One of the heavier tunes from the album. The chugging wall of guitars make you want to levitate while a brilliantly performed, syncopated drum-track keeps you totally grounded. A dark song about the afterlife. Powerline (feat. Michael Starr) The first ever featured guest appearance on a Crashdïet album, this anthem gives you a soaring duet between vocalist Gabriel Keyes and the infamous Steel Panther vocalist Michael Starr. A powerful call to the wild. Resurrection of the Damned A heavy blaster, direct from the veins of classic heavy metal and drawing from the bands early influences circa 1989. When you've been pushed around for most of your life, you probably have a lot to say about it (and it's not going to be nice). You're going to scream for it to stop and resurrect the damned. We Die Hard The notorious ways of the never-ending road which is the life we choose. A contagious mid-tempo rock anthem. A tribute to all the vagabond wanderers. Shell Shock A slow-driving powerful rock chugger full of dynamic vocals, guitars and gang-chorus shout-outs. A song about what happens when your temptations have taken over. Unbroken A fast-tempo punch rocker with guitar driven melodies, powerful vocal ranges and some surprise feel changes that will keep you on your feet. Defiant and never looking back. I Can't Move On (Without You) An airy 12-stringed acoustic guitar sets the feel of this classic rock ballad, featuring an astounding vocal performance complete with fat orchestral arrangements. A beautifully sensitive song, building up to a massively powerful ending.
