WICKED’s sophomore album “Go Rebel” out in August and confirmed UK and Ireland tour with Kings Of Thrash
Emerging from the billowing smoke of a big block burn out, comes the musical offspring of a classic rock influence with muscle and a modern twist.
New York rockers WICKED will unleash a (lucky!) 13 song album titled GO REBEL on August 21st, delivering melodic, high-energy hard rock and heavy metal that serves up the following tracks:
Teen Riot
Reaper Calls
Sunflower
Red Hot
Obsession
Go Rebel
Cool Bars
Strikes Like Lightning
Bones
Tonight, Maybe
Who Do You Love
Taking You Back
Till You’re In Love
“We wanted to make a rock album that could be the soundtrack for the scene. Something you put your leather & studs on for, roll your windows down, crank up and celebrate to”
– Danny/WICKED
The band furthering their quest to harness their own unique staple of rock n roll with influences covering the stomping glam rock vibes of The Sweet, power pop vocals of Cheap Trick, crushing back beat of AC/DC, and the undeniable guitar work of Thin Lizzy.
The album provides a balanced palate of heavier melodic moments like “Obsession”, “Reaper Calls”, or “Bones” faster punk inspired tunes like “Teen Riot” – even a guitar driven ballad with “Till You’re In Love!”. One thing is for sure though- this album is packed with anthemic rock ‘n roll spirit top to bottom!
“I can just hear fans of The Scorpions, Buckcherry, and The Darkness really getting loud to this album. It has so much dynamic rock ‘n roll influence from so many great eras!”
– Chad Michael/WICKED
A new year of red-hot excitement has led up to this full length release, as WICKED primed the party with singles like “Obsession” “Go Rebel” and “Sunflower”, while rocking The Heavy Metal Hall of Fame, Gasparilla Parade, opening for Buckcherry and conquering a North East tour with Vicious Rumors.
The new album release is accompanied by several cinematic music videos for anyone looking for that rock ‘n roll thrill- and the band plans to release a three-part music video series in celebration of “Go Rebel”!
“We’ve been so thrilled to preview the “Go Rebel” album’s adrenaline-fueled sound live playing singles and hyping up our rock n roll brethren!”
– Scotty V/WICKED
“I can’t wait to bring these tracks off the album to venues over the pond! Hard Rock still has plenty of life in it, and we’re feeding the flames!”
– Gunnar Coston/WICKED
