You need to sign up and download the free software then you set up an account and you pay as you download the songs that you want

Jeremey, be careful, you might get a speeding ticket!!

Surprised to hear JSS going for a Linkin Park/Limp Bizkit audience back in 2001....

Sorry Deb, I should have warned you!!!

I, for one, LOVE it and would like to see Jeff gently prod the others into more of this sound. The rapping ones are OK, but I cant see Journey doing those, but I can see the harder ones. That would really bring in a newer generation. Great job Jeff! Outstanding!

Now that's excitement! LMAO!

Great material on "Redlist".Jeff's voice is nuclear. Excellent for driving or driving the neighbors nuts!

Reminds me of Living Color,Clawfinger,H Blockx,that kind.Always loved the powerful mix of rock & rap.

I have listened to "Kingdom" several times,I think it's my favorite.

Gave it a few spins in the car - Great stuff. I know the "Nu Metal" thing is being kicked around quite a bit, but I never NEVER like bands like Limp Bizkit or their ilk, but Redline to me doesn't fall into that genre. For one, Jeff's got a voice. There's melody and harmony all over this record. Sure, there's a bit of rapping here and there, that's one aspect of the record. But I got a lot more of a Disturbed/Dave Draiman vibe from the whole project - Even more of a Stabbing Westward and David Bowie/Outside feel to the material. Some of the songs I felt the breakbeats & extra electronica elements took away what could have been some really heavy rockers on their own merit. My personal preference is a heavier vibe anyway, so it may not be for everyone, but it will definitely be in the CD player for a while. Inspired me to break out some Judas Priest after listening to it!! Excellent production as well, Jeff!! If you are reading, did you produce this project as well, cause the sound you were going really sizzles. Great CD - Can't believe this project took so long to see the light of day!

I think that's why I like it so much. Draiman kicks ass. But then again, I like it loud.

The is no other way,sweetie. Especially with something like "Redlist".

Think I am going to humiliate all those nasty s.o.b.s that play hip-hop at excruciating levels while they drive with their windows rolled down.

I need a sign on my car:"Redlist" - "Eat this".

LOL... sounds like a plan!

"RedList is a project I started back in 2001, feeling it was finally time to return to original music after laying low a few years with the Boogie Knights cover band. The early to mid 90's kind of pushed me away from what was happening in the current music scene until it started curving it's way into what led to the foundation of the RedList sound.

Originally, these new songs & style were aimed at a solo endeavor, a reinvention of sorts, something I longed to do as well as give me new legs as an artist. I was looking for a co-writer as well as someone who could help me produce this new sound so I put the feelers out & my good friend/longtime personal engineer John Ellis, told me about TWO guys he went to Berklee Music College in Boston that would fit the bill. He sent me a CD of bytes these guys were creating in the music house they worked for in NYC, churning out commercial jingles & soundtracks that were beyond impressive. Enter Neil Goldberg & Dave Fraser.

Neil was probably best known for his stint playing guitar with the metal band Annihilator & then went on to team up with Dave on this idea of working together in NY. Dave played keyboards for former REO Speedwagon guitarist Gary Richrath for a short time & went along with Neil when both found the tedium of original bands too frustrating. It wasn't till I contacted them & with major convincing did they commit to giving this a go for me.

As we went along, the songs we were creating started sounding more like a band & not a solo career which led to us finding a name that suited us. RedList for those who don't know is the title for the endangered species list…we sort of felt who we were & what we were doing fell right into that category!

We slaved on our sound for about 2 years until the realization of the industry once again halted our dreams. As the evolution of music & what sells versus what doesn't changed yet again, our only hopes of getting this stuff out was on an indy level which we weren't prepared to let it go to as well, we all found ourselves doing other things that consumed our time from being able to continue.

Fast forward to 2007, we still keep in touch & still discuss what could have been with these amazing, charged up rocking tunes which we have finally made arrangements to release on iTunes for the world to get their hands on it. As we agree, digital downloads are convenient & easy to attain but the consumer loses the aspect of holding a physical CD, we are creating a FREE downloadable PDF of the artwork which will be provided for those who want to burn their own disc & make the CD jewel case to go along with the album.

I hope you will enjoy this labor of love we made years ago, it is very different from things I have done both before & currently, it stands on it's own & will appeal to those who loved Linkin Park, Korn & Limp Bizkit. I bring you RedList!!

It's amazing to see how many 'harder' rock fans there are on here...I never dreamed Journey could include fans who went the heavier genre, thought I was the only one

Now, now. {shaking finger, incredulously} According to HOTS, you only post when responding to criticism. You wouldn't want to mess up that caricature, would you?

Seriously, though, thanks for the info.

Love that stuff. Priest, Maiden, classic Metallica, Megadeth, Queensryche, Savatage, and a ton of others.

Dang! Makes me want to go back to my Savatage avatar.

Hell no.. not this fan anyway. Ozzy, Def Leppard (older), AC/DC, Black Sabbath.. some of my favs .. although I just totally dated myself. Course I became a Journey fan thru going to the Lep tour last year.. so maybe I am not the best judge.
