The album will be available digitally on CD and vinyl plus a deluxe edition that includes vinyl, CD longbox, cassette and more, pre-order now. Today, the band released their first single, “Set You Free” – check out the absurdly ridiculous video for the first single, here. The 12-track album is both a tribute to the band’s “first to bleed, last to leave'' road crew and a salute to the legion whose support, stretching back to 1998, rivals that of the KISS Army. The stomping, heavy, bluesy, recklessly unhinged hard-rock-metal quartet are part invading horde, and part traveling carnival – summoning caffeine-fueled cacophony on records and the stage.Check out John on Facebook.Find all-things Mark Strigl here: MarkStrigl.netFollow Mark Strigl on Twitter: @talkingmetal Follow Mark Strigl on Instagram.Support this show by making a PayPal donation.Please consider sharing this episode on social media and leaving a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts.Get bonus content and support Mark on Patreon for as little as $2 a month: www.patreon.com/talkingmetal#ZakkWylde #OzzyOsbourne @Metallica #heavymetal #hardrock #talkingmetalSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On this episode, Mark Strigl speaks with Tommy Krash formerly of Britny Fox, He is currently working with Tim Ripper Owens in the Leviathan Project. He also has a new project called Infinity Rain which can be heard of Apple Music.The second interview is with Tom Wallace of the project Guild of Others which also features Derek Sherinian, Steve Potts, Tony Fraklin, Craig Goldy, and others.Check out Guild of Others on SoundCloud.Guild of Others on FacebookGuild Of Other Bio: "Guild of Others accomplish the near impossible, and that is making progressive metal that is accessible," proclaims venerated rock author/critic Martin Popoff. High praise from someone steeped in musical knowledge and history. He continued, "This sounds like thinking man's stadium rock. In a plethora of old and new school styles, these hooky compositions keep the proceedings earthy and built for the stage." He went on to place Guild of Others' debut among some of the rock world's most legendary and successful acts. "It's songs very much like this that resulted in early notoriety for Rush and even Styx for that matter. There's no reason why Guild of Others can't serve large pockets of fans... who believe in those same ideals toward both heaviness and craftsmanship." Wow! Quite an endorsement.Begun by Tom Wallace (drums) and Steve Potts (guitar), Guild of Others is a collection of musicians from various bands and backgrounds. As songs between the two began taking shape, questions of whom else to bring into the fold arose. Considering the style of music the two were creating, the keyboardist most desired was easy. Derek Sherinian (Sons of Apollo, Dream Theater, BCC, etc...) was top of the list. Upon hearing the demos, Derek's response was perfect. He described the music as, "Aggressive and adventurous. Without being too proggy." He liked it and would add his talents. Among the material were two songs Steve and Tom both felt needed fretless bass. For that, they reached out to well-known bassist, Tony Franklin. (The Firm, Blue Murder, etc...) Steve and Tom were floored by Tony's playing. His style and tone offered everything needed to complete the bottom end. His counter melodies and bass fills were superb. The guys requested he record the six remaining songs and he obliged.For vocals, local singer Mark Hammond was tapped for six of the songs. Michael Sadler (Saga) and Henrik Bath (Dark Water) lend their talents for the remaining two. The three vocalists offer three unique sounds and styles. All of which work perfectly for the material. In addition to the musicians already mentioned, guitar shredder Craig Goldy (Dio, Resurrection Kings) offers a blistering solo on "Veil of Insanity". As an added treat, Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Michael Bruce (Alice Cooper) and wife Lynette contribute the doting parents' voice-over for "Memento".The "Others" part of Guild of Others suggests future recordings will always involve other musicians. Tom and Ste
