GENERATION RADIO Feat. JOURNEY, CHICAGO And RASCAL FLATTS Members: Debut Album Details Revealed

GENERATION RADIO (formerly THE RISE ABOVE ),a new rock group centered around the combined talents of Jay DeMarcus and Jason Scheff , will release its self-titled debut album on August 5 via Frontiers Music Srl . Two-time Grammy Award -winning bassist Demarcus of the hugely popular country act RASCAL FLATTS and Scheff , who was lead vocalist and bass player for the multi-platinum band CHICAGO for over 30 years, are joined by drummer/vocalist Deen Castronovo ( JOURNEY , REVOLUTION SAINTS ),guitarist Chris Rodriguez and guitarist Tom Yankton in GENERATION RADIO .

The official music video for the first single from the LP, "Why Are You Calling Me Now?" , can be seen below.

Fans of classic AOR in the style of JOURNEY and CHICAGO are going to absolutely lose their minds when they hear GENERATION RADIO 's stunning debut.

In the beginning of 2020, GENERATION RADIO came together with the intent to form a band with a purpose — to bring classic 1980s rock back to life.

"This music is the best of all of us," says Demarcus . "Everyone in this band sings and contributes in a huge way. Jason is not only one of my best friends, but he is also one of my all-time favorite singers, and his performances on this record are stellar. Deen is among the very best drummers in the world, but he is also a world-class singer. In fact, I'm convinced JOURNEY heard him with us, and immediately wanted him back in the band! I'm kidding, of course, but we were fortunate to have him on this 'journey.' Finally, Chris and Yankton are veterans and some of my favorite musicians and singers. Chris and I go back to our early days together in Christian music. It is a true honor to make music with people who you respect so much and hold in such high regard."

Scheff adds: "My partner Jay [ DeMarcus ] had the idea to fuse RASCAL FLATTS with JOURNEY and CHICAGO , so that's what we did. Jay had several songs over the years that he'd co-written, exhibiting all his influences. There was no surprise he listened to a lot of JOURNEY and CHICAGO ! Those songs became the catalyst for the band and we rounded it out with some songs written specifically for the album that were in keeping with that theme. There's no other way to put it other than when you listen to this record you will hear a beautiful blend of RASCAL FLATTS meets JOURNEY meets CHICAGO , not to mention having the best of the best in the production, recording, and mastering department. A team of all current hitmakers."

Review by Andy Hawes for MPM

If, like me, you worship at the altar of wimphem; if stacked layers of angelic vocal harmonies and 80s style keyboards, achingly beautiful melodies and love-lorn lyrics are your bag; if you think that Journey sometimes rock out a little too much and that Chicago, REO Speedwagon, etc, are the pinnacle of the music world, then open your ears because a brand new band has emerged from the USA that will (ever so politely) rock your world!

Generation Radio are the culprits and they have just unleashed their debut album onto the world. Comprising ex-Chicago bassist/vocalist Jason Scheff, current Journey drummer Deen Castronovo, ex-Rascal Flatts multi-instrumentalist Jay DeMarcus and Nashville session guitar gods Tom Yankton and Chris Rodriguez, Generation Radio are making a bold claim for the number one pink and fluffy AOR wimp-fest of the year, if not the decade!

Coming on like a truly glorious mixture of all of the bands mentioned above, Generation Radio are absolutely not afraid to pile on the schmaltz and to revel in all of the hyper-melodic and over-emotive slush that makes the softest AOR so appealing to its fans.

This is not an album to appeal to Hard Rock fans or Metalheads: it is aimed squarely at the Yacht Rock brigade and by Jove does it hit that particular spot! All of the band members have not only staggering instrumental chops, but they could all be lead vocalists in their own right and this results in some colossally over-the-top vocal harmony orchestration and achingly beautiful lead vocals.

Opening with first single ‘Why Are You Calling Me Now?’ Generation Radio settle into an early mid-paced groove on the sort of AOR that only the true greats can get away with. There’s absolutely nothing even remotely original in the sound or style here, but such is the pedigree of these guys that they can turn a corporate rock foray such as this into an anthem of earth-shattering intensity.

Melody is the key here, as is the production and arrangement and, while there is a metric tonne of the former, it is the latter where the band shine as they know exactly where to pile in everything including the kitchen sink and exactly where to pull it all back and allow it to breathe.

Things continue in a similar vein with ‘Angels’, where guitar and keyboards combine to quite delicious effect and the shared lead vocals work like a charm.

Subtle slide guitar shows the Modern Country influence that at least half the band have, but this is no Nashville love affair: rather, it sounds like an open-topped ride down a coast-road highway in California in July and those layered harmonies are enough to reduce a grown man to tears.

‘All Night To Get There’ is a cover of a track that first appeared on Rascal Flatts’ 2010 album Nothing Like This. Rascal Flatts always had a Rock/AOR side lurking beneath their schmaltzy Modern Nashville Country sound and the song now sounds even better than the quite brilliant original version.

‘I Hope You Find It’ shows Jason Scheff in very familiar territory as Generation Radio go all Chicago on us on a track that has been previously covered by Cher and Miley Cyrus but don’t hold that against it. In Generation Radio’s hands it is a Chicago-esque ballad of superlative excellence, with stunning orchestration and a quite marvellous lead vocal, dripping with honey-sweet emotion and an uplifting lyric.

Things then take a rather unexpected turn with some rather furious chugging guitar riffing and proper powerhouse lead vocals! The frantic drumming and angsty, screamy vocals are something of a departure, but once again the melody quotient is very high with a quite ridiculous chorus hook propelling the song forward.

The song contains some properly shredding guitar too! It’s probably the weakest song on the album as its Hard Rock approach feels just a tad forced, but I bet it shreds live!

Next up is the second single ‘Lights Go Out In Paradise’. I reviewed the single release for Metal Planet when it was first released and I still think it’s one of the best AOR tracks of the year if not the decade. Deen Castronovo takes the lead vocal here and the Steve Perry-isms kick in big style on this absolute gem of a song.

If the chorus to this one doesn’t have you envisaging Castronovo standing on a sun-drenched mountaintop in the American Midwest, arms spread wide to the world belting out the hookline then you’ve probably not paid enough attention to AOR videos in the past! It really is about as ‘West Coast USA’ as they come and begs to be played at full volume from an open-topped Chevy roaring down Sunset Boulevard. Awesome stuff!

‘Don’t Go’ returns us to the kind of over-soppy, hyper-fluffy ballad that Chicago and Rascal Flatts always excelled in and that you’d expect to hear Christopher Cross or Michael McDonald singing. But once again, in these guys’ hands it’s just absolutely brilliant. Yes, it’s a soppy love song, but come on – we’ve all been in love and we’ve all felt this way about someone at some point in our lives. Why not celebrate that, eh?

‘Smoking’ ups the rock quotient a little with a chugging guitar riff and some more superlative vocals. Yeah, lyrically it’s very cliched – this is the kind of thing that 80s rock bands built their careers on after all – but it’s a cool rocker and the addition of talkbox guitar (a la Peter Frampton and Richie Sambora) is bang on the money.

‘Anything But Us’ has a clear Nashville influence. I can easily hear any of the current crop of Modern Country acts doing this, but then a lot of Modern Country is rock in disguise and this is another cool slow to mid-paced track with another superb chorus and quite delightful open production.

‘Waiting On Your Sunshine’ is another slightly more guitar-led track and the melodies and chords structures are slightly less predictable here than in some of the other tracks. It’s another classy middle-of-the-road West Coast AOR track with hints of latter day Little River Band in its sound and style.

Generation Radio return to the ballads with album closer ‘Finally Get It Right’. This is another of those tracks that combines the very soppiest of Chicago and Rascal Flatts influences and piles on the saccharine by the bucketload. Truth to tell, I’d have preferred a more uptempo closing number, but given what has gone before what was I really expecting?

Look, I’m the first to admit that this album will have some limits to its appeal with readers of the Metal Planet site. It really is the very wimpiest and woolliest of West Coast AOR albums and as such, do please approach with extreme caution if the thought of a mix of Chicago, Rascal Flatts and Journey’s softer moments fills you with dread.

However, if your tastes run to a goodly bit of classic Yacht Rock and if you are fully in touch with your soppy side, if angelic vocals, subdued guitars and layers of keyboards float your boat then I would urge you to order this album pronto! It’s an excellent example of its type and the pedigree of the band members make it so.

There are many AOR albums out there that will probably hold more appeal to the more generic Rock fan, but for those of us who love the softer side of the genre this is pretty much essential listening! It will certainly be on my playlist for a very long time.

And now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go and lay down in clouds of pink and fluffy cotton wool and absorb the wondrous Soft Rock magnificence yet again. I may be gone some time…

Urban Soundtracks: Rostov-on-Don According to Motorama

For reasons unknown to me, Russian music has never broken into the Western consciousness, beyond that brief t.A T.u phase in the 2000’s. Americans just never caught on to the wonder that is Philipp Kirkorov, I suppose. Nonetheless,  Motorama has carved out a small niche for themselves as an underground hit. Maybe this is down to their lyrics being in English, or perhaps it’s the fact that they have a near-perfect capacity to summarize our twisted emotional landscape with their own brand of Post Punk.

Hailing from Rostov, Russia, they were formed outside the Moscow and Saint Petersburg cultural centers, which produce the bulk of the nation’s cultural exports. Known for being a far more rough city, Rostov appears to be the ideal backdrop for Motorama’s amazing capacity to engender emotions, like disappointment and anxiety. However, little writing is produced about the city and it attracts few tourists from outside Russia. As such, we spoke to  Vladislav Parshin from the band, and he kindly put together a bit of a mix to understand the place a bit more.

For most people anything outside of Russia, the country is a complete mystery. How did being from Rostov shape your musical tastes and you guys as artists?

For me the main influence was my father who showed me tons of great music from the Soviet Union and abroad and all these songs formed my tastes. Rostov-on-Don is also an important part of shaping the taste, as I knew personally the members of the New Wave/Post-Punk 90’s bands like Elen  and Matrosskaya Tishina , they influenced me in the beginning of the 2000’s.

It is interesting looking at musical scenes that are outside the centers of arts like Manchester, Seattle, and Louisville. It is as if being removed from the mainstream conversation allows you to produce something completely unique and personal. To a certain degree, do you think that your band was almost blessed to be outside the major cities of mainstream culture?

I won’t say that it was a blessing, but it was fine for us as a band. I think that living outside the big cultural spots is a good chance for creating something by yourself, you have more free time, instead of visiting never ending exhibitions, concerts and parties. But at the same time it’s harder to meet people who share the same ideas and who can help you in what you are doing. In general I feel comfortable living in Rostov-on-Don, we are flying to Moscow and St. Petersburg from time to time only because of the concerts.

The mix is fantastic. It is very Post Punk/synth-inspired. However, it is hardly the most ‘sunshine and rainbows’ mix. You’ve said in other interviews that there is nothing exciting about your home city of Rostov. Does that contribute to the sound of the mix?

I like such music and I think it suits our city.

In many articles, your work has been compared to British post-punk bands but I think it is fair to say that you’re part of a broader Soviet/post-Soviet tradition of bands like Kino. What is it about this darker style of music that continues to attract people across different generations in the former USSR?

I think that there’s a specific side in Russian character that is connected with such dark or sorrowful music. For example, lots of traditional folk songs from different parts of Russia are based on metaphysical stories connected with faith and death. All these existential problems are reflected in different art genres here, not only with music, but also literature.
