As requested, here’s St. WARREN second album ‘Honest Planet’ originally released in 1992, remastered & reissued by FnA Records re-titled “Return To Honest Planet“. Hailing from Florida, the band was formed by bros Brett (vocals, keys) and Brad (guitars) St. Warren and during the late ’80s they were one of the most promising Melodic Hard Rock / AOR acts from the area.
For this second album there’s a much more polished production – the album was released on CD but locally distributed only – and musically still retains that classic late ’80s / early ’90s US melodic hard rock sound in the vein of HAREM SCAREM, LILLIAN AXE, SKID ROW, etc, this time with some SAIGON KICK, WILDSIDE or SLAUGHTER touches too.

The brothers roots take them all the way back to Tampa Florida where they had an early hard rock / hair band called Eden Rock which would eventually evolve into St. Warren. In the late 80’s/ early 90’s, St. Warren was a staple on the Florida hard rock circuit competing for the top band spot and huge buzz year after year. Their shows draw between 500-1,000 fans per show. Not bad for a local band heaped in the middle of countless other hair bands vying for the same attention.

The band consisted of St. Warren brothers, Jeff McDonald on bass, and a few revolving drummers. Brad, two years the elder, delivered the band’s rocking side with his distinct lead guitar style and background vocals while Brett performed each song with his glammy rock infused vocals and rhythm guitar.
St. Warren played extensively and was one of those bands that should’ve been signed and would’ve been signed had the bottom of the hard rock/hair-band craze not fallen out with the influx of the grunge scene.

For years a collector’s piece, this is a welcomed reissue and the remaster takes the best from the better production ‘Honest Planet’ had.
Highly Recommended
