YOUNGBLOOD was a band that at the time (around 1989) was offered contract by Sony/Epic Records. The group quickly jumped in the studio and new tunes we're laid out and 16 tracks we're decided for a new CD that never was released.
Youngblood's "No Retreat" has finally resurfaced and what a pleasant surprise of gems you have on here.

Founded in 1988 by guitarist and producer Jeff Diehl who has worked with such legends as Gene Simmons, Night Ranger or Eddie Kramer, Youngblood also toured extensively as Epic Records recording artist Henry Lee Summers' backing band.
The group spent nine months working in the studio recording 45 tracks, then 16 were selected for the debut album. While professionally recorded, mixed and mastered, the songs never saw the light of day... at least until now.

"No Retreat" is quintessential '80s melodic hard rock, pretty much an audio picture of the period. You'll find some appealing familiarity to Youngblood's sound echoing peers like Slaughter, Warrant or Firehouse.
