Thanks Robert! Glad you like our new song Wasted Youth! I know that the more I've listened to it, the more I can't get it out of my head...that's a good sign. 30 years is a long time between album releases, but I honestly think that our fans and others who know of us will be floored by the album...we're a hell of a lot older, but the energy is still there :) There will be advance CD's with several tracks from the new album that will be sent out to radio stations in the near future...you are definitely on the list!
oh my god!! I loved that song when I was younger..for some reason though, I actually like the Metallica version better. Man, I had that on tape !! Effin awsome....way to bring an awsome memory back for me !! you rule.
