Time To Rise by Social Disorder (Pride & Joy Music)
Social Disorder is the rock and roll project that is almost too good to be true! Founded by multi-instrumentalist Anders La Rönnblom of X-Romance, the lineup would soon burst at the seams with hard rocking goodness. Legends joining within the ranks of Social Disorder would include the likes of Tracii Guns of L.A. Guns on lead and rhythm guitar, Rudy Sarzo of Quiet Riot on bass, Shawn Duncan of L.A. Guns and Odin on drums, Leif Ehlin of Perfect Plan on keyboards, and David Stone of Rainbow on keyboards! All this, and the special participation of bassist extraordinaire Bjorn Englen on one song and the mesmerizing vocals of Thomas Nordin on the entire album. And now with this dream lineup on hand, Social Disorder presents to the world an epic magnum opus entitled Time To Rise.
From the stunning commencing of the thrilling title track to the dynamic “seize the moment” refrains of High On Life, Social Disorder present their own staggering brand of hard rock and roll. References of Deep Purple and Whitesnake only begin to describe the rapturous sonic artistry Social Disorder has in store for the world at large. Going Blind features the guest appearance by bassist Bjorn Englen presenting a dazzling low end that seethes with a sense of urgency.
Free Your Spirit and Forged In Fire further explores the magic and intrigue to be found within the realm of the Social Disorder experience. And be sure to listen on to the blistering grand finale of See What You Believe, with Social Disorder spinning it all into absolutely stratospheric heights at full speed ahead.
So much glorious talent to be found in Social Disorder, and what an exhilarating auditory odyssey the band presents with Time To Rise. Each and every song could blast all over the worldwide radio airwaves. Here’s hoping Social Disorder make their way here to the States for some live shows! In the meantime, do not miss this captivating new release brought to you courtesy of Pride & Joy Music!
