JOE LYNN TURNER To Guest On The Heavy Metal Mayhem Radio Show This Sunday; RAPID TEARS, TANTRUM Members Also Scheduled

Joe Lynn Turner (Sunstorm), as well as Brian Frank of Rapid Tears/Killer Bee and John Riccio of Tantrum, will guest this Sunday, June 12th at 6 PM, with host Mike “The Big Cheese” on The Heavy Metal Mayhem Radio Show.

The Heavy Metal Mayhem Radio Show has been the purveyor of heavy metal music since 1976. The show airs on Sunday nights at 6 PM, EST and Thursdays at 12 PM, EST. To listen to the show visit this location.

Sunstorm’s fourth album, Edge Of Tomorrow, was released on May 13th. Sunstorm is Joe Lynn Turner's succesful AOR / melodic rock project, something that came about for the first time in 2006 when Frontiers President Serafino Perugino wanted to dig up some unreleased gems that JLT wrote during the late 80’s and early 90’s.

The very good reviews and acclaim which surrounded the debut self-titled release was the fuel that ignited three more records, until the project was momentarily shelved when Joe started working on the Rated X supergroup with Tony Franklin and Carmine Appice.

After the release of the Rated X album, Joe wanted to go back to the more melodic material of Sunstorm, but also wanted to retain some of the harder edge which the Rated X album had. So he asked producer and songwriter Alessandro Del Vecchio (Hardline, Edge of Forever) to come up with some new songs in that vein. Del Vecchio joined forces with Simone Mularoni, guitar player of Italian prog metallers DGM. Together they developed songs which were exactly what Joe wanted, so it was a natural process to move forward and record another Sunstorm album. As usual, other songwriters, such as Soren Kronqvist and Daniel Palmqvist completed the array of individuals involved.

Joe Lynn Turner says: “This new Sunstorm album is the best of the series! We went harder... stronger... and heavier than ever before without losing the integrity of what the project is about... I call it Melodic Metal! The songs are very well crafted, the messages are profound, the performances amazing… and the sound is incredible! All involved can be very proud of such a great music. I urge anyone who loves great music to check out Edge Of Tomorrow, you won't be disappointed!”

The resulting album shows a slightly new direction for Sunstorm, which still features organic and very strong melodies as a trademark.
