This is Dave Bickler, the original singer of the band Survivor who was singing on the track “Eye of the Tiger”. The personal album of Dave is very different from the glossy, poppy sound of the Survivor. It has a hard edge, with hard rock grooves and catchy, melodic vocals. Sometimes, the atmosphere flirts with the US post grunge music of the early 00s. This is completely normal since the mastering engineer Alan Douches (Mastodon, Monster Magnet) handles the audio engineering duties of this album and affects the audio result. I would say that the recent works of the band Nightranger might be a reference point for those who look for similar music on this album.
