Road To Eden

Product Information

Multiplying the luminous soli ('The Devil Rides Tonight'), Vinnie Burns also does not hesitate to pay homage to another national legend in the person of The Edge ( U2) of which he sometimes takes the gimmick which made his reputation during some introductions ('Cradle To The Grave', 'Road To Eden'). The one for the ones who got away and might have stayed if things had been different, a vibe that “I Always Will” carries on in truth.

I wonder if Professor Brian Cox still listens to this very talented band that he was part of in the early days? I saw this band way back in 1992 when they supported Mr Tempest and the boys on the OOTW tour at the fleahouse in Edinburgh to promote their Out of the Silence 1Tour. Although its been said elsewhere that the lyrics are repetitive singing about storms, mountains etc, being a nature lover i get where Darren is coming from. It’s a peach of a track: both pensive and personal, it reflects on one of their happiest times together in Hawaii. That's four excellent tracks out of four, four varied tracks as well that underline how powerful this album is.Dare is the brainchild of former Thin Lizzy keyboarder Darren Wharton and guitarist Vinny Burns (Ultravox, Ten, Asia). Bringing up the tempo and the joviality, we are asked ‘do we remember when Terry Wogan used to play what he wanted on his radio show?

Calm Before the Storm marked another change in style towards a mellower sound with Celtic influences. I have always worn my heart on my sleeve when it comes to my feelings and I think you can hear this in the lyrics this time.No matter how we try to dismiss those feelings, put them to the back of our minds, you can't help but feel regret that friendship has gone. The other week I wrote that FM’s new one was the best album of its type that would be released this year. The admiration Darren had and has for the legendary singer/bass player is once again displayed in the great rocking track ,,Only The Good Die Young’’. And if the luminous final solo of 'Thy Kingdom Come' with its masterful rise in intensity and its assumed Celtic pride finishes dazzling us, it also installs in us the melancholy of a journey that ends when we would have liked to see it go on and on.

That the keyboard player who actually founded the band had joined Thin Lizzy at 17 and would record three albums with them of more relevance. With a backing track providing the sound of a waterfall, the thunderous strobe lighting on stage gives the thunder effect. That they fell apart without realising that potential was a big disappointment to fans, myself included, but Darren Wharton resumed the band, albeit pursuing a mellower sound influenced by traditional celtic music. Taking to the stage, Troy and Finn get to work on opener Scorpio, a gritty number that fits the appearance of Redfern, who seems edgier than normal, maybe it’s first-night nerves. T. Festival in Germany (15 April), the Rocknytt Cruise in Sweden (21-22 April), and a 12-date co-headline UK tour with FM and Tyketto.

With a brand-new album ‘Road To Eden’ singer/keyboardist Darren Wharton and his band Dare give the rock world a welcome sign of life.

Back in the late eighties and early nineties, Dare – fronted by Thin Lizzy keyboard player Darren Wharton and with the nation’s favourite scientist Brian Cox an early member – threatened to hit the big time with their AOR tastic debut ‘Out Of The Silence’ and the controversial heavier second ‘Blood From Stone’. On the other hand, those folk melodies are there in the title track too, but they're phrased very much like Magnum would phrase them.

I wrote all of the songs on the album except Tunnel Of Time which is a collaboration between myself and Paul Weller. un grande ritorno per la band di darren wharton, ex thin lizzy, un ritorno ancora piu hard che nei precedenti, con il ritorno del immaginifico vinny burns alla guitar, il suono si è tramutato in hard celtico.Yes, tempo is far more 'up' than recent work and like past Dare albums, it does take several listens to get to know the tunes. The best thing about the album is that it is entirely comfortable not to be Avant Garde and instead concentrate on the sound that the band has always had. He once approached me with a little idea and we slowly worked at it in dressing rooms etc until I took it away and put it all together. End of World will be released on 11th August 2023 on PiL Official via Cargo UK Distribution, followed by a 38-date UK and European Tour. At the same time the band gave an update on the pending new album: "In the coming weeks we'll be announcing the brand new DARE album, title and release date, plus full UK tour dates for 2022.
