In 2018, legendary heavy metal vocalist DEE SNIDER turned the heavy music world on it’s axis with his transformative album, ‘For The Love Of Metal.’ Produced by Hatebreed frontman Jamey Jasta, the album re-cemented Dee’s undeniable prowess with it’s modernised mastery and take no prisoners attitude. Three years later, with one of the most collectively tumultuous times society has ever experienced. DEE SNIDER triumphantly returns with his fifth full-length album, Leave A Scar, out 30th July, 2021 via Napalm Records.
Taking things up to the next level with, an absolute banger of an album… ‘Leave A Scar‘ does exactly what it says on the tin. Assaults you from all directions right from the get go. Opening track ‘Gotta Rock (Again)‘ is superb, heavy, thunderous and basically sets the tone for the whole album. Open Season powering up for a conflict verbal assault anthem. Ferocious ‘Time To Choose‘ featuring the primed guest vocal attack of Cannibal Corpse’s George ‘Corpsegrinder’ Fisher – and mosh-ready. while searing ‘Before I Go‘ provides one of the album’s, memorable choruses yet calming lyrics. The album closes with a victorious ballad ‘Stand,’ a call for listeners to take a stand and make their voices heard.
Every song meaningful with powerful drumming, great bass lines and uncompromising badass guitar work accompany Dee’s legendary strong vocals. It’s really hard to pick a favourite, but as it stands ‘All Or Nothing‘ is top of the tree, but that could easily change as every track is a killer..!!!
12 tracks – ‘Leave A Scar‘ not only further bolts DEE SNIDER’s position as one of the most celebrated frontmen of all time, showcasing his vocal delivery and commanding persona is as strong as ever. Produced by Jamey Jasta, with co-production, mixing and mastering by drummer Nick Bellmore. DEE and Co have produced yet another monstrous accomplishment to stand the test of time. Not many things in life are guaranteed but while Dee Snider is here, you can guarantee some damn fine no holds barred music is going to keep coming and that sits very well with me!
