Yeah the metal genre labeling has gone beyond ridiculous at this point.

It is a cool cover. I think I'll be getting this. To show some support for the instrumentalists.

I'd get it for the cover but as much as Marty is a good guitarist I just haven't been able to get into anything of his since Future Addict
He does have some stuff I'm not that into. But I like the really heavy direction of the last two albums and want to encourage it.

Encouragement is one thing but I just can't see him improving unless he goes back to Dave and apologises for all he did wrong then allows some of that greatness to again rub off on him.
And yet. I find it less cheesy than Dee's American Made song! And the music for this kind of stuff in the 80's was never that heavy or aggressive. It IS cheesy. But it's done well and I'll take it over most of the crap coming out. Not that I'm going to buy it lol.

Seems to have a big Christian theme through the back catalogue and it's all shred city from what I've read. I think Dee and this band do kind of fit quite well together, both seem like they are still firmly planted in the 80's and don't want to leave. There's nothing wrong with that either I'm listening a band named Pegazus they started in the 90's with their brand of cheesy 80's/90's riff driven shred music and it's great stuff. I think there are only a few bands that keep the cheese in metal but there should be more.
A big Christian theme? I definitely wouldn't have gotten that from the cover lol.

According to wiki Rob Rock (the vocalist) has released mostly christian stuff. I'm not sure if Impellitiri himself is christian but it seems like if he isn't he's let Rob write quite few lyrics.

Hahahaha.
I tried listening to Dee's song again. If he just mentioned his dog it could be a country song...or a Chevy truck commercial

If it was a country song he'd have to lose the dog or the love of his life.
In this country Chevy ads focus on them being bigger. We don't see many Chevy's in this country because GM owns Holden which is our brand and up until recently we sold our own. But now Chevy is taking our Commodore for pursuit cars and we stopped making cars here so GM is pushing the Chevy trucks because utes outsell all other cars here. So are you suggesting Dee is bigger than the rest and more powerful?
