REDLINE are a true hard rock band from Birmingham, England. Heard that one before? Well there are a few really famous forerunners\u2026 REDLINE formed in 2006 around the prospect of writing nu-classic rock songs. The band consists of Kez Taylor, vocals, A.D., guitars, Steve Petty, guitars, Mark Biddiscombe, drums and Redvers on bass. They might as well be from Barnsley, but the features of undeniably classic British hard rock are there. Their best shot at eternal fame this far seems to be the inclusion of \u201cKing of the Mountain\u201d as official soundtrack to the Isle of Man TT Motorcycle Races. This album was recorded and engineered in studios like Mat Hat (MAGNUM, DIAMOND HEAD) and The Old Smithy (TRAPEEZE, JUDAS PRIEST), so what could possibly fuck up? <\/p>\n
Opener \u201cBattle Cry\u201d is so British, but there are still better numbers to open the proceedings. \u201cKing of the Mountain\u201d is next, with its contagious refrain and almost tangible biker genes. Next up is \u201cBlack Sky\u201d, complete with a bass intro and very clear influences from BLACK SABBATH during the height of the Tony Martin era. \u201cNo Limits\u201d is more of the obvious, boosting a clearly mid eighties SAXON sound. You get the picture by now I gather. But two of the highlight are saved for later, \u201cThe Edge of Falling\u201d has a variation of an opening, the riff is a take on the one in \u201cRock\u00b4n\u00b4Roll Gypsy\u201d and it could pass for a SAXON song, as well as the arena aimed \u201cWe Came to Rock\u201d. Back in 1986 it would have been a surefire income. The sweet ballad \u201cCold Silence\u201d and the gritty \u201cSome Kind\u00b4a Mean\u201d are pretty close too. The less inspired moment award goes to \u201cHigh Price to Pay, but the overall impression is the right one! <\/p>\n
