Really glad I had that time to give the song the all it deserved.\u201d And Frank also discussed the song\u2019s video &#8211; \u201cBeing from Canada I did not really grasp what the cold war meant, but after living in Sweden for 26 years one starts to realize how very close the threat at the time was. In the making of this video we did it at an old abandoned cold war era &#8211; first strike airforce base. The base was an array of runways interacting with each other in literally the middle of nowhere. It was an experience for me to try and imagine how it could have been&#8230;it made me reflect on my first weeks here in 1990. We were driving in town and instead of a Deer Crossing sign I saw Tank Crossing signs (lol). Wow what a culture shock for a guy like me from good ole safe Toronto, Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Album Teaser &#8211; Killer Bee &#8211; Eye In The Sky &#8211; https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=GSta5KaAWmw&amp;feature=youtu.be<\/p>\n<p>Amazon US digital sales music link is : https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B01L7R4ZD2\/ref=ap_ws_tlw_alb5<\/p>\n<p>US iTunes sales link. &#8211; https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/album\/eye-in-the-sky\/id1144484988<\/p>\n<p>Since the early \u201890s, the Bees have been delivering the sting\u2026and now the hive has let the swarm loose!<br \/>The last couple of years have not been without trials and tribulations though &#8211; member changes, injuries, and production hold-ups have made this era a roller coaster ride for the band.<br \/>However, the band managed to persevere, as 2015 saw Killer Bee embark on an extensive US tour (covering over 40 cities in no less than 35 states), and the future is only looking brighter.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking about highlights from the recording sessions, Brian &#8220;Bee\u201d Frank the lead singer and producer of the new record states, \u201c\u2018Shout It Out\u2019 is the ultimate 70\u00b4s feel with the screaming Jon Lord\/Hammond playing by Denny DeMarchi. I remember when he was recording that solo. One take and it was done. At the end Denny said, \u2018I can do it better,\u2019 I said \u2018No! It\u00b4s done!\u2019 What a great moment. During the 90\u00b4s, Anders and I had a writing system&#8230;he played I sang. A song done normally it took no more than 30 minutes to get a song done. The last three albums have had a slightly different approach but on the writing of \u2018The Fight,\u2019 it was a magical moment. Back to the old school formula. 15 minutes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So catch a buzz and feel the sting\u2026Killer Bee are BACK!
