Artist Bio


A song synopsis from new vocalist Chandler Mogel and drummer John Parker:
1. Fallen Angels - (Full Length Download Available - Download Here)
Chandler: This is our title track. Ironically, this was the last song recorded for the record. It's a bombastic tune, which I'm sure will go over well live....Guitar shredding galore...!! I love the melody and lyrics on this one.
John: This gets the CD off to a roaring start! Chandler has great range on this, just a great song with a great melody.
2. Burn -
John: The harmony from hell! Vibe is to take on the world - and you can join me.
Chandler: One of my favorite songs on the album. Big chorus and great rippin' solos courtesy of Jim "Keemaster" Kee. This one should get the hands in the air for sure.
3. What About Me -
Chandler: probably one of the "poppier" songs on the album, again I love the melody and lyrics. It has that big radio friendly chorus to it.
John: Good rocker, I love the groove of this one...good example of the AOR-feel we wanted for this release.
4. Jane -
Chandler: The quintessential big power ballad!
5. Always -
John: What a sing-along! Catchy as hell, but still has bite. This one came to us quick - instant classic for sure.
Chandler: Also one of my favorite tunes on the record.
6. Paradise -
Chandler: This was the first song I recorded for the album. It was a older Talon tune from a few years ago. The Label felt it fit perfectly and was a must for the bands core fan base. A great tune with a great groove and cool lyrics by Kory.
John: Another early track, straight-up rocker about being lied to......won't happen again.
7. I Won't -
Chandler: This actually beats out "What About Me" for the poppiest song on the album! Great chorus and harmonies. An answer to all the lovey-dovey pop music out there right now - just listen to the lyrics. John: Sometimes music shouldn't be rocket science, and be plain ol FUN.. Total 80's feel that is upbeat and catchy as hell. A song all about moving on, and finally telling that "person" , "I Wont Be There for You". A upbeat yet anti love song....Hah!!
8. Crying In The Dark -
Chandler: Another favorite of mine. The other Big power ballad of the album. However this one has a little Whitesnake feel thrown in for good measure!
John: Love the Moodiness on this one. It really surpassed all of our expectations and took on a whole new life. Chandler sings this with total passion ! Also one of my favorites.
9. Live Free -
John: Balls ! One of the early tracks we penned for the new album. This thing just reeks of power - Yea... Must play this very loud!
Chandler: Like the song says...Live FREE!!! Great driving riff and melodies with a BIG heavy chorus.
10. All I Ever Needed -
John: Another of the AOR vein tunes of the album. Awesome chorus, pop in the car and just sing along.
Chandler: This is one of the tunes co written by Erik Johnson of Bombay Black (another Kivel Act/Label mate). Erik really helped us knock this one out of the park. A song I'm sure that will please fans of bands like Survivor and Honeymoon suite with its Big melodic chorus. Its a toe tapper tune for sure. I bet you can guess what the lyrics are about....!
11. Wrecking Ball -
John: Yep...the Talon classic from the 1st CD. This is sort of a ceremonial start of the bands new chapter, by redoing something from the previous chapter. We had to have Chandler sing on this, plus it comes across live great as well. So we had to re do it.
Chandler: This is a "self-cover" song from the first Talon record - The label wanted us to redo this song as they felt it was a great tune and should get the updated treatment to really show it off. We added some glossier backgrounds and a slightly different interpretation from the original version. A little TNT-ish in my opinion. Which isn't a bad thing!!
12. C'est La Vie -
John: Yea, now were talkin'! Time to lay it down and not let up - just kicks ass live! Chandler smokes on this one. I'm looking fwd to playing this one live at Firefest for sure.
Chandler: The album closer, and possibly my favorite song on the record. It is a drivin' metal tune for the ages, with a modern melodic chorus. Can't get enough of it!
