 Red Dragon Cartel. The band, which is a reference ... )
I am glad he is back in the music scene.
Sounds like he’s ready for the spotlight again.
That Warmachine debut album was produced by Dave Ellefsen of Megadeth, awesome album !!!
So many years away. I’m sure Ozzy had him on salary, publishing given to Ozzy. Financially he probably was in Quiet Riot territory.
I’ve known Darren Smith the new vocalist for nearly 30 years. One of the best singers I’ve ever heard and a true performer. Its gonna be legendary
Glad to see Jake back, I was actually hoping that Badlands would have recorded with John West who replaced Ray Gillian back in the 90s. I think the material would have been killer since I think West is phenomenal. Hopefully Jake’s new band will do great things
