Todd Michael Hall (ft. Kurdt Vanderhoof) - 'The Doctor' (video)

If you're feeling under the weather
looking for some relief
Pick up the phone, give me a call
'cause I have the remedy

I'm available every night
It's all right
I won't charge too much
There's no illness I cannot address
with my expert touch

You don't have to live this way
alone with so much pain
Just put your faith in me
I'll make it go away

Call me the doctor
I've got everything you need
They call me the doctor
Satisfaction guaranteed

Why suffer any longer
when I have the cure?
Lay your burdens at my feet
and your pain will disappear

I'm available every night
It's all right
I will treat any disease
Bring your afflictions to me
and I'll set your mind at ease

You don't have to live this way
alone with so much pain
Just put your faith in me
I'll make it go away


Todd Michael Hall - Off the Rails
Ο Todd Michael Hall έγινε γνωστός στο "μεταλλικό" κοινό λόγω της παρουσίας του στους Riot V (τα τελευταία ένδεκα έτη). Παράλληλα έχουμε ακούσει την φωνή του σε δίσκους των Jack Starr's Burning Starr, Timo Tolkki's Avalon, Reverence κλπ.

Παράλληλα "τρέχει" και την προσωπική του καριέρα, στην οποία προστέθηκε ένας ακόμη δίσκος. "Off the Rails" ο τίτλος και "βγήκε" προ ημερών. Στο πλευρό του Todd ο κιθαρίστας (των Metal Church, Presto Ballet κλπ) Kurdt Vanderhoof...

«Aligning himself once again with Metal Church founding member and guitarist Kurdt Vanderhoof, Todd offers the listener 10 new studio tracks and two bonus tracks of straight-forward classic-rock-inspired music.

As to the inspiration for the album, Todd explains, "Some crazy things have happened over the last few years, so “Off The Rails” seemed like a great title for a new album. No matter how crazy life gets, music always has the ability to get us back on track and people will find an overall uplifting theme throughout my newest album.

"Kurdt and I enjoyed working together so much on the first album (Sonic Healing), that we both wanted to create a second album. Off The Rails has the same awesome classic rock energy with great riffs and melodic vocals, but with a bit more emotion interspersed throughout", commented Todd.

Regarding Kurdt's approach to the songwriting on this album, “I wanted to focus on creating guitar-driven music that delivers something outside the realm of what most people would expect from a metal guitarist. I wanted the compositions to stand on their own” explains Vanderhoof. Todd further comments "Give it a spin, crank it up, and let this locomotive take you rockin’ down the tracks!"

Songs like “The Doctor”, "Off the Rails", "Sitting On Top of The World" and “Can't Get Enough" are testaments to the magic that was created when Todd and Kurdt began to focus on their deep love of classic rock icons like Boston, Rush, Styx, Foreigner and REO Speedwagon.

Todd’s multi-octave voice and Kurdt’s riff writing capabilities create memorable songs that are reminiscent of the artists that inspired them to pursue a career in music. With thought provoking lyrics and rock-solid guitar riffs, "Off the Rails" delivers all the power and punch that one would expect from these high-level musicians!»
