Bio:
Midnite City was formed in January 2017 by current Tigertailz frontman (and former Vega, Steevi Jaimz and Teenage Casket Company member and songwriter) Rob Wylde. Armed with an album's worth of material written under the working title of Midnite City, Wylde approached friend Pete Newdeck (Newman, Eden's Curse, Blood Red Saints) to produce three songs for him to shop to record labels. Wylde sang, played guitar and bass on the recordings whilst Newdeck played drums, provided backing vocals and took care of the production. Wylde also brought in newcomer guitarist Miles Meakin who played guitar solos on the recordings and former bandmate James Martin (Vega) who laid down keyboards on the tracks. After being mixed by Newdeck, the songs were sent to Harry Hess (Harem Scarem) who mastered them at his studio in Canada. The songs "Nothing's Like Losing You", "Summer Of Our Lives" and "Think About You" were then sent out to labels and garnered considerable interest across the board, resulting in a deal being inked with German label AOR Heaven. With a record deal in place, Newdeck officially joined the band as drummer in the spring of 2017, alongside Miles Meakin on guitar and Shawn Charvette on keyboards. With the line-up now in place, the band began work on their debut album at PNP Productions in Tewkesbury UK, completing the recordings in June 2017. With a sound that the band describes as timeless melodic rock / hair metal, Midnite City covers all bases when it comes to this much loved genre of music. From ultimate feel good, party rock anthems, to brooding melodic rock monsters, to spine tingling power ballads, they are all here in abundance and then some.
Album:
Following on from their explosive self-titled debut album in 2017, MIDNITE CITY return all guns blazing with their sophomore release ‚THERE GOES THE NEIGHBOURHHOOD‘ a year later – eleven tracks plus two bonus cuts of fist pumping, high energy, feel-good, hair metal of the highest order!The lush melodies, huge choruses and gargantuan hooks found on their debut album are all here in abundance alongside some true modern day glam anthems, fun commercial party rock, moody mid-paced hard rockers and heart wrenching power ballads big enough to light up an entire arena. Let alone “You Don’t Understand Me” shine…As with the first album, the winning formula has remained – all songs have been written by frontman Rob Wylde, whilst Pete Newdeck (d) has once again taken control of production, engineering and mixing duties. Together with Miles Meakin (g), Josh “Tabbie” Williams (b) and Shawn Charvette (keys) they create the magic.With ‘THERE GOES THE NEIGHBOURHOOD’, the band has literally stepped everything up several notches to unbridled, head splitting proportions. The guitars are big, the drums are huge, there are walls and walls of harmonies and more synths than you’d find this side of a classic Bon Jovi album. In a nutshell, this album has everything but the kitchen sink!So if you long for a band that still look, sound and perform like those long lost million selling forgotten bands of the late 80’s/early 90’s, MIDNITE CITY and ‚THERE GOES THE NEIGHBOURHOOD‘ is the album for you. It absolutely is!MIDNITE CITY, unlike many competitors, is still tearing it up live all over the UK, Europe and beyond in their own inimitable, arena rock style…You bet!Two bonus cuts, “Heaven’s Falling (Piano)” and “Rock And A Hard Place (New Studio Track)” and that fact that there are only 500 copies whatsoever of this rerelease make this one a true collector’s item. Number 19 of Pride & Joy Music Classixx is a shining gem for every lover of melodic rock music.’HERE COMES WEEKEND…HERE COMES THE PARTY!’
