We’re really pleased with the direction the songs are taking.“Previous EPs have proved popular – and this is our biggest and best to date.”
Album:
Fronted by talented Steve Overland, FM has been a staple in the British melodic rock / AOR scene since their formation in 1984. With their debut album, Indiscreet, they solidified themselves as one of the leading bands in the genre. Via Naughty Records (their own label) the band has released their own Vintage & Rare CD series that contains indeed rare and unreleased FM music.Here’s in exclusive at 0dayrox “Vintage & Rare Volume II (The Demo Collection)“, featuring awesome demos / pre-production takes of their best songs, including the Indiscreet & Tough It Out album demos, all previously unreleased.Sound quality is excellent, A+ .This second version of Vintage & Rare is a true gem. All these early versions give listeners a glimpse into the band’s creative process and when they were at their peak. Songs like “Crying In The Dark”, “Everytime We Touch”’, “Like Lovers Do”, “Closer to Your Heart”, etc, are all amazing AOR, some are even better – I mean, unpolished yet fresh, vital – than the final versions.“Vintage & Rare Volume II (The Demo Collection)” seems sold out now, not available at FM’s website anymore.
