Hardline - "If I Could I Would" (audio)

Ο δίσκος των Hardline "Heart, Mind And Soul"
As sure as the sun will be rising
I can breathe another day
My shadow there reminds me
As i walk away

And i’m letting go of sorrow
I’ll search and find a way
I won’t waste another minute
A second or a day

Show me your worry
And i will drown it
Show me your fear
And i’ll break it away
I’ll fight the clouds
Around your fury
And dream away

And if i could i would
I’d save you from the world
That’s in your way
And if i could i would
Protect you from the
Morning night and day
If i could i would

If you’re looking in a mirror
Is there someone you should be
If you’re silent in the laughter
Let it out and free

When you tighten all the screws up
And it breaks inside of you
I’ll help you pick up all the pieces
The pieces give me you

Show me your worry and i will drown it
Show me your fear and i’ll will say
I’ll fight the clouds around your worry
And dream away

And if i could i would
I’d save you from the world that’s in your way
And if i could i would protect you from the
Morning night and day
If i could i would

What in the world are we doing
Why can’t i take it away
I can feel your every warning
Miss step one step away

If i could i would protect you from everything
I would i would i would

And if i could i would
I’d save you from the world that’s in your way
And if i could i would protect you from the
Morning night and day
If i could i would


Το 1991 τα αδέρφια Johnny και Joey Gioeli δημιούργησαν τους Hardline. Το συγκρότημα διαλύθηκε την επόμενη χρονιά κι επανήλθε το 1999. Έκανε ένα διετές "διάλειμμα" το 2009 και συνεχίζει μέχρι τις ημέρες μας. Έχει κυκλοφορήσει έξι "ολοκληρωμένους" στουντιακούς δίσκους (συν δύο live albums) με τον έβδομο να είναι προ των πυλών. Φέρει τον τίτλο "Heart, Mind And Soul" κι αναμένεται τον επόμενο μήνα...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Hardline have announced the release of their new studio album, "Heart, Mind And Soul" on July 9, 2021 via Frontiers Music Srl.

"This album is a true reflection of who we are and what we care about. I’m always amazed, despite what some critics may say, that we have the strength and power to push through the way we believe and want to. That will never change with this band. It’s a very, very special band chemistry we have here," says vocalist Johnny Gioeli.

Of the first single from the album, Gioeli says, "'Fuel To The Fire' was inspired by that one person who just knows how to push your buttons. You know who you are....the last word...always right. We have all had that person in our life at some point. This song takes a lyric twist as I add MY fuel to the fire. Enjoy....and use it as therapy the next time someone gets under your skin who doesn't deserve to be there."

Ever since the release of their widely heralded album “Danger Zone” in 2012, Hardline have been offering a straight-ahead, gritty, riff-based melodic hard rock sound which is a continuing evolution from what was on offer in the band's early days.

What you get here on their new studio album is a group of musicians who are perfectly gelled as a unit and determined to display a sound that is immediate and powerful. Adding their own personality and imprint to the music, the band has created a perfect balance between these anthemic, hard rocking songs.

You can expect hook after hook and riff after riff as you take a ride with Hardline via "Heart, Mind And Soul". Singer Johnny Gioeli, as usual, is in supreme form, providing a soaring vocal performance to stir up the listener.

Complementing that, Mario Percudani’s guitar is on fire and the super tight rhythm section of Anna Portalupi and Marco Di Salvia is locked in. Alessandro Del Vecchio's immeasurable contribution on keyboards, background vocals, and production serve to tie the whole package together. He is, rightfully and deservedly, one of the “go to” guys in the melodic hard rock scene and this record shows, once again, why.

""Heart, Mind And Soul" is an album you can’t turn off, in my biased opinion. After writing it, recording it, mixing, mastering, planning, deciding... on and on, you would think we’d get sick of it. Not even close. One of my most favorite Hardline albums to date without question," says Gioeli.

Hardline evolved from being an up-and-coming Sunset Strip sensation featuring brothers Johnny (vocals) and Joey (guitar) Gioeli to a supergroup of sorts, featuring former Bad English members Neal Schon and Deen Castronovo, before finally settling in and becoming a band showcasing the incredible talents of the fabulous singer Johnny Gioeli with the production and songwriting skills of Alessandro Del Vecchio (Revolution Saints, Jorn, etc.), the shredding talents of guitarist Mario Percudani, and the powerful rhythm section made up of bassist Anna Portalupi and drummer Marco Di Salvia.

What truly makes Hardline special is how well their unique and different talents blend together to form a spectacular whole. "Heart, Mind And Soul” is simply an album you can’t miss if you love melodic hard rock, but what else would you expect from a new Hardline album?

They are, after all, masters of the genre. The band plans to hit the road once touring resumes post-pandemic, so take the time to learn all of these future classics to sing along with Johnny soon enough! "After we can finally say FU to Covid-19, Hardline is on the road with this album and we'll be in your face. You better pack a diaper, it could get messy when you hear this live," concludes Gioeli.»
