Now the band have returned with a smashing new album called\u00a0<em>Tightrope<\/em>\u00a0that strikes a delicate balance between powerful, driving rockers and more complex, heady album tracks. Still led by iconic drummer Carmine Appice alongside long-time members Jimmy Kunes on vocals and Randy Pratt on harmonica,\u00a0<em>Tightrope<\/em>\u00a0is according to Appice \u201cone of the best Cactus albums we\u2019ve ever done.
