Doogie White is in Schenker's band so left Tank and they got ZP. He's doing a great job on the title track from the album due in September.

Yes. Mr. Theart does a great job on that very good song. This new Tank is one of my most anticipated 2015 releases. And for the purists, yes, it doesn't sound at all like the Algy Ward-Tank, but that's only for the better IMO. Excellent melodic metal now.

You gotta check out that Valley Of Tears album. It's now released and it's excellent stuff all over. Tank (along with Saxon) is one of the very few old bands whose latest albums (the last 3 for Tank, 2010's War Machine, 2012's War Nation and 2015's Valley Of Tears) are their best, or as good as what's considered their "classic" stuff. IMHO of course 
I do understand that there has been a huge change of style for Tank (for the better as far as I'm concerned) and that some older fans say that the current Tank is the not the real Tank, that Algy Ward is Tank, and no other... But I don't give a damn... For me, newer Tank (Mick Tucker/Cliff Evans version) is producing the best music of their career.

I still love this album and play it regularly. These guys (and especially this album) deserve more talk and recognition!
