Dave,

They sound like a kinda heavier version of Triumph and Def Leppard mixed in with Krokus. Basically melodic hard rock. The closest sound I can think of is Axe if you are familiar with them.

This has to be my favorite CD of the year so far (runners up are Michael Sweet's I'm Not Your Suicide and John Fullbright's Songs). This has the classic Helix sound but the quality of the songs themselves were the biggest surprise. First 2 songs are the title track and Even Jesus (Wasn't Loved In His Hometown). Both would be surefire rock radio hits if such a thing still existed. The songs just keep coming from there.
