Whitesnake 'Good To Bad'

After a decade of absentism from the rockers Whitesnake some might be surprised to see a new album of there's on the shelves on April 22nd.

"The album contains all the elements that I enjoy about Whitesnake," frontman David Coverdale tells Billboard.com. "The responses I've been getting are that the album is a heady cocktail that embraces the whole history of Whitesnake within one album. Which was not planned, but fortunately, I'll drink two of those cocktails!"

Also the band are in planning to tour the U.S, After there current European tour with Def Leppard (whose also have an album set for realease).

And to top all this off fans may also be treated with a newly re-mastered 3 Disk CD to celebrate the bands 30th anniversary.

Thanks for the info to Billboard.com.

I won't seek it this new album.
However, I do wish them well.
I wonder who's in the band with Coverdale.
Whitesnake has always been like Wings, with line up changes.

planet rock last week played 3 new tracks within the album and i must admit they sounded bloody gid! go n to see the mighty snakes on tour this year, can't wait. i would recommend seeking this album out as any whitesnake fan will love it.

[ValoRhoads]

I wonder if Adrian Vandenburg is returning for this one

[ElThomas]

NO COVERDALE! DON'T DO IT! NOOOOO!!!

[zalant]

"new album of there's" -- uh, yeah.

I know, I know, "quick nit-picking" you'll say. Well I say, quit screwing up!

Anyhow, all of my grammar fascism aside, I really hope that this new Whitesnake album is good. Coverdale has been in the game long enough, but we all know that doesn't always translate into great music. I've got my fingers crossed for this one and for the new Metallica album.

[belavista man]

Soudns good... Might get it when it comes out.

[Footzyrama]

...it's called 'good to be bad'

Why do UG change things in news articles...pfft

I heard Ready to rock which is goign to eb off it and its a pretty kick ass song so.

[Ibzman]

Can't wait. I don't care what anyone says, the actual line up is amazing and it can only be good

[sneaky11]

Coverdale/Sykes is way better than crappy Plant/Page. and anyone that says that whitesnake copied "black dog" when they made "still of the night" is a complete idiot. stil of the night rocks way harder than any woman zepellin song.

No one mentioned Zeppelin. But get your flame shield out.

[Rajah]

I "found" the album online last week and it's very good. I'm a huge fan of 1987 and this whilst not as good, it does have some elements of 1987/Slip Of The Tongue. Definately worth getting if you are a fan.
I'm going to see them in Melbourne at the end of March.

[RWFAWCETT]

Adrian Vandenburg.....I would like to see him with the original Vandenburg line-up.....that frist album kicked ass !!!!! and still does every time I play it !!!!

Hey I listen to Whitesnake and 'slit your wrists emo garbage' =[
I hope this is good, seeing them in 2 weeks, YAY.
[btw I don't slit my wrists]

[say5ss2]

FLAME ON!!!!!

[Retro Rocker]

Ah man, there was a place online where they let you listen to the whole album for free for a while, it was fantastic.

Seeing them with Def Leppard in a few weeks, it's gonna kick so much ass.

Bashing Zeppelinism but supporting Whitesnake? That's like bashing hamburgers but supporting McDonalds.

[xxmrblonde]

I get Chicken Nuggets when I go to McDonalds, but that's neither here nor there. Doug Aldrich is a witch. Go find him playing the solo to Burn.

[ianozzi76]

I love these boards! HAHA! It's like being in the school yard again! If you like 'em, fine, if you don't, turn the page. I like 'em, ok? I also like a lot of the other music mentioned here. It's called diversity... Look it up!!

[FVD]

Good To Be Bad is an awesome album. Contains a good balance of the Classic Moody/Marsden and the flashy Sykes/Vandenberg styling all rolled into a fine album. One of the best albums to surface this year by far.

Doug Aldrich and Reb Beach. What a team. I always wished that Aldrich would throw a little hint of the Transformers theme seeing as he was in the band Lion back in the 80's.
