Nitrate - Renegade

Nitrate is back with their third album "Renegade", a follow on to their previous highly rated albums "Realworld" in 2018 and "Openwide" in 2019, which achieved great success. Inspired by the late 80's rock scene with bands such as Def Leppard, Europe, Mötley Crüe and Bon Jovi, Nitrate is the brainchild of song writer Nick Hogg (bass guitar) from Nottingham, England. Nick has this time changed the line-up and enlisted Alexander Strandell (Art Nation) to take over on lead vocals & has teamed up with Tom & James Martin (Vega) & Mikey Wilson (Kimber) to produce an album that has been heavily influenced by Def Leppard's "Hysteria". With Tom Martin playing all the rhythm guitars and James Martin taking over on keyboards, the album delivers a more melodic/AOR feel than ever before. "Renegade" delivers 11 hook-filled tracks with great melodies, walls of keyboards and backing vocals supplied by Alessandro Del Vecchio. Tracks were inspired from bands such as Def Leppard, Starship, Journey, Skid Row and Roxette making for a true 80's sound. Taking over on lead guitar is Dario Nikzad (Hell To Play).
