Johnny is my favourite vocalists so I consider myself lucky how many projects he's been involved in over the years, even if it's almost (probably is to most folk!) a bit of a joke how busy the man is. It's weird, but I still have this sense of awe every time he releases a new album 'cause you gotta remember, after the first Hardline album in '92, Gioeli pretty much disappeared until doing some stuff with Crush 40 & Axel Rudi Pell near the end of the decade before ultimately reforming Hardline sans Neal Schon for the 2002 album. To me, it was almost like he died then came back to life. And look at everything he's done since; a ton of albums with both Hardline & Axel, the Gioeli-Castronovo project, his solo album, Enemy Eyes & probably a duet with whoever's reading this! Point being, idle Johnny ain't & I'm damn grateful for it!

I adore this band, and they we're a huge factor in the formation of my music taste as a whole. I still think Leaving The End Open is their best, and Danger Zone is their worst, but all of their albums have good songs. I just rediscovered them recently and have been loving the ride again. Thanks, Hardline. Your one of my favorite bands for a reason.

Taking it back. Listening to Danger Zone recently and I quite like it. I think Human Nature is their weakest.

Hearing Hardline for the first time was a real trip. Hot Cherie kept me up all night it was so good. That's the only time a song has done that to me. The Double Eclipse album...man, if that was released 4 or 5 years earlier, it could've blown up to be huge. I love the relentlessly cheesy music of Danger Danger and a lot of those less critically acclaimed bands of the late 80s, the post Poison/Def Leppard hair metal groups, but from top to bottom, Double Eclipse, for me, was top of the heap. I cherry pick heaps of songs from a lotta those groups nowadays; House of Pain by Faster Pussycat to High Wire by Badlands, but only a few 80s rock albums hold up in my book. Appetite For Destruction is one. Shout At The Devil is another. There are a few others but damn, Double Eclipse is the album I wish people who dug the aforementioned music could've heard. Johnny Gioeli's voice is something else and the songs were tremendous. Neal Schon rocks out like he never has before too. A lost classic.

I just got Danger Zone... Anyway, it sounds so lost, doesn't sound like Hardline. Why does Jhonny keep trying to form a new Hardline with unkonown musicians? I'm pretty sure there's a lot of good guitar players that would kill to be in the band, for godsake, Neal Schon was in it! It doesn't sound anything like Eden's Curse too. :(

Saw Hardline when they supported Extreme in the UK back in 1993 (I think!) They were awesome live and first CD is brilliant!

A fantastic band with amazing music. I need to buy Double Eclipse! It's such a shame they're not as well known as they should be, but I'm pretty damn happy that I do!
