PUSH – On The Run (2024 reissue)+ Japanese edition 2 bonus tracks *HQ*
Hailing from Denmark, PUSH were one of the bands that kept the melodic hard rock flame alive during the Nineties / early 2000’s. The band now got the rights of all their albums and started by themselves a 2024 reissue campaign as most the CD’s are out of print.
“On the Run” is PUSH’s third album and their most polished, melodic and catchy. With a singer shouting like Mike Tramp and a rhythm section ala Bonfire, first song, title track ‘On The Run’ is an excellent piece of classic melodic hard rock and sets the mood for the whole, entertaining album.
Lead vocalist and songwriter Martie Peters has been surely inspired by White Lion’s Mike Tramp style, and he owns a similar vocal timbre too – raspy on the rockers and warm when needed.
As requested, we added the original Japanese edition 2 bonus tracks.
Second track ‘Waiting’ In Live’ confirms the first impression; Push rocks with style, this particular song sonically coming straight from the ’80s, when rock bands knew how to write catchy songs and killer choruses. There’s some wonderful harmony / multi-layered vocals all over this album.
Then there’s ‘Too Late’. The melody is so infectious that you’ll be humming it all day. Love the chorus too. The intensity and crescendo of ‘Believe in Love’ will make your day, some kind of a mix between Johnny Lima & White Lion.
And that’s just a resume; the entire “On the Run” is that good. If you never heard Push from Denmark, this album is the perfect start: it’s plenty of melodic hard rock winners.
