Steelheart, the brainchild of Miljenko Matijevic whose powerful voice and multi-octave range is the heart and soul of the band, are streaming the track “Come Inside”, featured on their new album, Through Worlds Of Stardust, set for release on September 15th. Listen to the song below.
Although they were lumped in with the glut of long-haired hard rock bands emerging in the early '90s, the band was always more forward thinking than their peers and the 2017 version of the band has a contemporary and edgy feel, while still retaining the patented powerful vocals of Miljenko. On Through Worlds Of Stardust, Miljenko has fused his past, present, and future together, creating an undeniable piece of hard rock music. Certainly fans of the band's first three classic albums will be happy to hear those powerful pipes back in action, but fans of modern hard rock acts like Halestorm, Shinedown, Alter Bridge, and other melodic minded rock heavyweights will find much here to love. Steelheart released their self-titled debut album in 1990 and based on the buzz around the hit single "I'll Never Let You Go" was a smashing success (for example, 33,000 albums were sold in one day in Japan) and quickly reached platinum sales. Steelheart's sophomore album, Tangled In Reins was released in 1992 to critical acclaim and rave reviews, but moderate success in terms of sales in the US (by early '90s standards) due to the well documented rise of grunge music; however, East Asia was a different story, where the band was widely embraced yet again. In the midst of promotion of the album, a serious accident happened on Halloween night in 1992, when an improperly secured lighting truss hit Matijevic on the back of the head, breaking his nose, cheekbone, jaw, and twisting his spine. Almost impossibly, Matijevic managed to walk off the stage of his own strength before being rushed to a hospital. "Steelheart" as it was known ended that night. Now the band is back with a sonic tour de force befitting of their stature. Don't be foolish and dismiss this as just another "band from the '80s" as you will miss out on one of the most surprisingly robust and balanced hard rock albums of 2017. Highly recommended for fans of hard rock from then and now.

"The band had a blast making the album and a lot had to do with original founding member, lead guitarist John Matthews, rejoining the band. He really lit the fire that got the bands blood pumping to make a new record. "For me, it was awesome to produce and mix such a cool record. It's very hard-hitting yet melodic, with some great lyrical storytelling and great standout tracks like 'One Million Miles', 'Tears', 'Rags To Riches' and 'She Likes To Give It'. The songs are so catchy and memorable on the first listen I know our fans are gonna love it! And, of course, there are some burning guitar leads to keep the metalheads happy. "The band is very grateful that Frontiers Music Srl listened to the tracks and felt the same way about them as we do and offered us the opportunity to get this record out. We can't wait to hit the road and play the material live." Featuring ten tracks of the energetic classic hard rock the band is known for, "Revelation Highway" is sure to please fans of BABYLON A.D.'s classic early material.

Lions Pride Music feels proud to announce the release of American Mafia's first single and lyric video "Ride On Through" taken from their upcoming EP "Made in New York" to be released on 25 September 2017!
Stream American Mafia - Ride On Through (Official Lyric Video / 2017):
Pre-Order "Ride On Through" on iTunes: http://apple.co/2tBY87G, Amazon: http://amzn.to/2uttieN.
"Made in New York" Tracklist: 01 Superstar, 02 Gistified, 03 Ride On Through, 04 Lead The Way, 05 When London Sleeps. Line Up: Don Chaffin - Vocals Tom Jude - Guitar Freddy Villano - Bass Bobby Marks - Drums American Mafia: They say that necessity is the mother of invention. Well, American Mafia was born out such necessity. In May 2009, the band Holy Water released "The Collected Sessions" (Perris) placing their previously unreleased, but much sought-after music in a legitimate ‘Archive.’ The CD received rave reviews: “…the band would have been household names. at their best Holy Water is that good.” – Sleazeroxx "damn near every song here could've fit on the radio..." – Detritus e-zine “the thing about Holy Water is that you would have sworn you’ve heard these songs before, but chances are you haven’t.” – Hardrockhaven "The Collected Sessions" was originally supposed to be a teaser while Holy Water got busy recording a new album featuring many of the songs they’d written over the years, but never properly recorded. But when original Holy Water vocalist David Knight sadly committed suicide in early 2014, guitarist Tom Jude (ex-Doro Pesch) and bassist Freddy Villano (ex-Quiet Riot / Widowmaker) were faced with a dilemma: abandon the project, due to the seemingly insurmountable obstacle of replacing Knight, or forge ahead. the duo opted to move forward and "The Collected Sessions" became Holy Water’s swan song. In Knight’s absence, Jude and Villano decided to ditch the Holy Water moniker and enlist not one, but several, of contemporary rock music’s premier vocalists to help complete the record they’d already started. The names should be familiar to just about any hard rock aficionado: John West (Badlands/Artension/Royal Hunt), Jimmy Kunes (Cactus/Flood the Engine), Don Chaffin (VOX/Red Lamb), Mike DiMeo (Riot/Masterplan/The Lizards) and Ed Terry (Rondinelli/Rage & Beyond). All were invited to not only sing, but also write their own lyrics and melodies. They re-branded this new union of rock n’ roll rogues American Mafia and the resulting album, "Rock N’ Roll Hit Machine", released in August 2014 on Grooveyard Records, earned rave reviews, with Ross Welford from Uberrock saying, "this plays like the best classic rock album you've never heard", and comparing it to Bad Company, Aerosmith, Foreigner, Whitesnake, Rainbow and Tesla. In 2016, Jude and Villano, along with vocalist Don Chaffin and drummer Bobby Marks, assembled to record a five-song EP follow-up to "Rock N' Roll Hit Machine," aptly titled, "Made in New York". In early 2017 American Mafia signed with Lions Pride Music, who will release "Made in New York" on September 25th. The first single, "Ride On Through", is available August 25th, 2017. https://lionsmusicshop.wixsite.com/lionspridemusic
