You can practically visualize the high energy violet rain pelting the earth and rainbow hues in the puddles thanks to the screaming guitars. Here the melody is strong, pulsing like the neon lights on a marquee while being set to a thumping beat. The next single came along back mid-May with “Let it Rain” complete with a Psychedelic Rock intro. A lusty tune with a kickass drumbeat that triggers the muscular system to move of its own accord, it is a bold yet daring piece that is reminiscent of early Journey. A synchronicity of the past and present, fans were introduced to the new music with the lead single “You Got the Best of Me” which features a funky synthesizer intro that has a strong YES vibe. In addition, there is contribution from Jason Derlatka (backing vocals), Randy Jackson (bass, backing vocals), Narada Michael Walden (drums), as well as Deen Castronovo offering lead vocals on “After Glow.”Ī nearly 71-minute-long album, Freedom consists of fifteen scintillating tracks which features lyrics and blood pumping instrumentals that send an uplifting vibe of hope, evoke a sense of inner calm, and a firm conviction that love conquers all.Ĭoming together during the pandemic, Freedom gradually took shape and you can readily distinguish the Journey flavor within each song that is even more robust and polished than ever. Behind Pineda is of course the core of Journey, Neal Schon (guitars, backing vocals, keyboards) and Jonathan Cain (keyboards, backing vocals). Their first studio album in eleven long years, the last being Eclipse, it is also the third studio album to feature Arnel Pineda on leading voice. In fact, on July 8 th they returned with their new studio album Freedom through BMG in the USA and Frontier Records in Europe/Japan.
Leaving behind a trail of gold foiled rose petal hits where ever they went, Journey rightfully entrance into the illustrious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame back in 2017 and continue to march on in 2022. Journey marched across terrain far and wide in a single-minded vision quest of smiting hearts the world over with Steve Perry’s signature vocals and soulful joie de vivre music style.
Later renamed and forever known as Journey, they eventually became a powerhouse in the world of Rock-n-Roll. In the early 1970s a band by the name of Golden Gate Rhythm Section burst forth onto the music scene like a fountain geyser.
