HOUSE OF LORDS – ST [Axe Killer / Bad Reputation remaster Ltd. Edition +1] Out Of Print

This classic melodic hard rock piece has been requested over and over, HOUSE OF LORDS self-titled awsome debut album. This is the really good and hard to find remastered version by Axe Killer Records (now re-branded Bad Reputation).
Essential into any ’80s Melodic Hard Rock / AOR collection, this reissue of “House Of Lords” includes a bonus track, a different, remixed version of the song ‘Love Don’t Lie’, written by the great Stan Bush.

HOUSE OF LORDS – The Unreleased & The Bonus Tracks – 0dayrox own compilation

As requested, here’s some unreleased HOUSE OF LORDS material.

The genesis of the album, or better, the HOL return, was in fact inspired by the sound & style of its origins, and the proof are these demos recorded around 2001, later discarded.
Songs like the punchy ‘Shotgun Doctor’ is driven by a sharp guitar riff akin House Of Lords’ second album Sahara, midtempo ‘After The Love Is Gone’ has great atmospheres akin the first, same with the pulsating ‘Angel Of The City’, which in fact was written in the ’80s.
‘Hero’s Song’ was included into the recently featured here ‘Anthology’, and ‘Love Can Build A Bridge’ is a midtempo ballad with acoustic guitars into the mix in the classic HOL style of the beginning…
