This Is Gonna Sting by Escape The Hive (Weapon Records/Vanity Music)
Phoenix, Arizona’s Escape The Hive recently made their way to The Whisky on the Sunset Strip, opening for Burning Witches, making quite an impression on the crowd. After such a kickass set, it was definitely time to revisit their This Is Gonna Sting album, which recently had a vinyl release! The all-star lineup features frontman Michael Thomas Beck (Jake E. Lee’s Red Dragon Cartel, Kings of Dust), guitarist Conrad Varela (Alice Cooper, Geoff Tate), drummer A.D. Adams (Dirty Looks, Crash Street Kids), bassist Paul Williams (DL Marble), and keyboardist Michael Vars.
Selections such as Separate Lives, I Can See It, Roll The Dice, and Watching You, Watching Me could be played all over the radio airwaves. Fans of acts such as Foreigner and Journey will be over the moon when encountering what Escape The Hive has to offer the world at large. With a debut album this exciting, expect the buzz for Escape The Hive to be nothing short of stratospheric! It will be exciting to hear what musical honey this powerhouse collective whips up for us all in future days!
