The term supergroup was immediate as it was formed by JOURNEY guitarist Neal Schon, brothers Joey and Johnny Gioeli on guitars and vocals respectively, bassist Todd Jensen (ex SEQUEL) and drummer Deen Castronovo. The circulation of musicians was fierce of cause, with Neal returning to JOURNEY and Tod and Deen joining OZZY. Geezer Butler has been in the band, which also goes for Rob Rock, and a good few more. Today the band is centered around sole remaining original member Johnny, who has enlisted the aid of keyboardist Alessandro del Vecchio (EDGE OF FOREVER), guitarist Thorsten Koehne (EDEN\u00b4S CURSE), bassist Anna Portalupi (MITCH MALLOY) and drummer Francesco Jovino (UDO). <\/p>\n<p>Opener \u201cFever Dreams\u201d had me going for the medicine box. The typical archetypal elegant and catchy US AOR is striking. The song is possibly one of the best openers in 2012. The JOURNEY feeling is so present I could swear Neal Schon was present. There are quite a few plusses scrabbled on my info sheet. The flattest moments are the somewhat lame \u201cStronger than Me\u201d and the slightly inferior \u201cI Don\u00b4t Wanna Break Away\u201d. Otherwise HARDLINE 2012 leaves pretty little more to ask for. \u201cShow Me Your Love\u201d remins me of VAI\/VANDENBERG WHITESNAKE, the potential live favorites are many; \u201cThe Only One\u201d, \u201cNever too Late for Love\u201d, \u201cWhat I\u00b4d Like\u201d are just three of them. If they had opted for 10 tracks, leaving out the ones mentioned before, this one would have been a necessity in my 2012 Best of list, but it remains a strong contender. <\/p>\n<p>Track List<br \/>\nFever Dreams<br \/>\n10000 Reasons<br \/>\nDanger Zone<br \/>\nWhat I\u00b4d Like<br \/>\nStronger Than Me<br \/>\nNever Too Late for Love<br \/>\nStay<br \/>\nI Don\u00b4t Wanna Break Away<br \/>\nLook at You Now<br \/>\nPlease Have Faith in Me<br \/>\nShow Me Your Love<br \/>\nThe Only One<\/p>\n<p>www.frontiers.it www.myspace.com\/hardlinerocks<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Frontiers\/BAM HARDLINE\u00b4S history dates back to 1991.
