New release from: LAST IN LINE – Jericho (March 31, 2023)
“Ghost Town” is the video for the first track taken from Jericho – the band’s 3rd studio album. Frontman Andrew Freeman states: “The song for me describes breaking a cycle from different perspectives. On a personal level it could be family, career or life expectations, putting a person in an unwanted or unwelcome space. On a grander scale it addresses government expectations. Non-sensical, unethical ideas and laws that become the norm, while turning a blind eye to larger problems.”
Last In Line is a band that seems like heavy metal fan fiction, almost too good to be true. And yet, here they are! It was shortly after the way too early death of Heavy Metal legend Ronnie James Dio when his former band colleagues and co-conspirators Vivian Campbell, Vinny Appice and Jimmy Bain came together to jam out of love, respect, and nostalgia for the good old days. The co-writers on DIO’s albums Holy Diver, The Last In Line (from which they took their name) and Sacred Heart soon teamed up with esteemed vocalist Andrew Freeman (ex-Lynch Mob) and Last In Line was born!
Sure, it would have been easy to follow the path of least resistance and just become a living tribute to the band DIO but that wasn’t the right way to do this. Last In Line was the beginning of something new while respecting what and who had come before.
The debut album was released in 2016, landing at #1 on the Billboard Heat-Seekers Chart. Initially, the release had been preceded by tragedy when bassist Jimmy Bain unexpectedly passed away. Last In Line, honouring what they knew would be Bain’s wish to keep the band moving, brought in renowned bassist Phil Soussan (ex-Ozzy Osbourne, ex-Billy Idol) and committed to sustained touring and sharing the stage with metal luminaries such as Saxon and Megadeth.
