![]() “Thin Blue Line” slows things down but still packs quite a bit of attitude and is an enjoyable rocker. While I wouldn’t say that it’s Lynch‘s best guitar solo of all-time on “Super Bad”, the video with Lynch in it is fun to watch. Jamie Brown‘s vocals on the track are top notch. “Super Bad” oozes with attitude and has a great groove to it. It just so happens that the three best tracks on Radio Silence feature one or two of the KXM band members each time. Not that Roxanne needed any star power but they certainly got a shot in the arm with Rat Pak Records label mates KXM (guitarist George Lynch, singer/bassist dUG Pinnick and drummer Ray Luzier) all appearing on the record. I really like the middle portion of the song with the background vocals and guitar solo that reminds me of Queen. “Girls Alright” is a radio friendly tune and should really be released as a single / video. The opening track “Someone To Kill” has a real ’70s feel to it but with modern production and it sounds fantastic. Had Roxanne limited their sophomore effort to those first seven songs, it would have likely made the Sleaze Roxx’s Top Ten Albums of 2018 but you take an album as a whole, and those last four tracks just aren’t at the same level as the first magnificent seven. I think the reason for that is that the album kind of slows down and tails off quite a bit with the last four tracks. My first few listens were enjoyable but nothing really stuck out that much aside that it was quite well produced and sounded great. I also see that Roxanne seem to have continued where they left off with their debut as the attitude, groove and swagger from at least those two songs can definitely be found on Radio Silence.Īfter hearing the first three singles (via videos) from Radio Silence - “Someone To Kill”, “Super Bad” and “Go Fuck Yourself” - I knew that I would be buying the album and made a point of getting it before year’s end. I did listen to a few tracks from the debut (“Cherry Bay” and “Sweet Maria”) for the purposes of my review of Radio Silence and I like what I heard. I confess that I don’t recall Roxanne from back in the late ’80s but then again, I wasn’t really into AOR back then and from what I can tell from the band’s description of its debut, it was more melodic rock than anything else. Thirty years is one hell of a time to wait and the results are almost worth the wait! There are quite a few real standout tracks on Radio Silence and had there been a few of that ilk, this album would have definitely found itself in the Sleaze Roxx’s Top Ten Albums of 2018. Shields is repped by Casarotto Ramsay & Associates and UTA, while Busick is repped by A3 Artists Agency, The Gotham Group and Jackoway Austen.Thirty years is a long time between albums but that is exactly what we’re getting with Roxanne‘s sophomore album Radio Silence, which comes 30 years after the release of the band’s debut album. Radio Silence is repped by UTA, Brillstein Entertainment Partners and Johnson Shapiro. The movie is the team’s second Scream movie, after 2022’s Scream, the fifth installment which relaunched the franchise. The film set a franchise record opening at the global box office and this weekend passed the $100 million mark at the domestic box office. ![]() Radio Silence and Project X are coming off of the strong success of Scream VI, which Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillett directed, Project X produced, Radio Silence’s Villella executive produced and Project X’s Vanderbilt co-wrote. Jay Polidoro, Holly Goline, Kelly Cannon and Jacqueline Garell are overseeing the project for the studio. ( Dracula’s Daughter, incidentally, was a classic Universal horror movie produced in 1936 as a loose sequel to 1931’s Dracula.) Universal is noting the project falls in the lane of such films as Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man and the upcoming Renfield, Adam McKay’s take on a Dracula side character - movies that provide “a unique take on legendary monster lore and will represent a fresh, new direction for how to celebrate these classic characters.” The script for the untitled project was written by Stephen Shields, with revisions by Guy Busick.
