BODINE - Three Times Running - [FULL ALBUM 1983]

🔘Bodine was a Dutch heavy metal band which was active from 1978 until 1984. The band released three albums: Bodine (1981), Bold as Brass (1982) and Three Times Running (1983). Bodine debuted with Jay van Feggelen as the vocalist, who performed as the Barbarian in the album Into the Electric Castle by Ayreon. The creator of Ayreon, Arjen Anthony Lucassen, tried becoming the lead singer of Bodine but was added as a guitarist instead (which he says was secretly his plan all along). Bodine was an obscure Dutch band formed in the early eighties, a band that might be relegated to lost-and-forgotten status save for the fact that this was one of the early bands featuring one Arjen Lucassen, who later went on to greater things with the prog rock/metal band Ayreon, as well as Star One and other projects. As the story goes, Lucassen auditioned for the singer role in the band, with the real intent on joining the band as a second guitarist, which is precisely what he did. The band released three albums in all, breaking up in 1984 at least partially due to Lucassen accepting an offer to join another Dutch band by the name of Vengeance. As it turns out, most of the above would be completely academic save for the fact that this was quite a good band, at least if Bold As Brass (the middle of their three albums) is to go by. Featuring a bluesy, rocky base combined with a healthy dose of the NWOBHM stylings of the day, Brass never really got a lot of publicity (at the time, it seemed very few had heard of the band or album) but might be considered a lost gem today. _TRACKLIST_ 1 - Shout 00:00 2 - Battlefield 04:26 3 - Black Star Rising 10:14 4 - Below The Belt 15:28 5- The Force 22:01 6 - Hard Times 28:34 7 - Rampage 33:42 8 - Free Kick 39:03 Heavy Metal (Netherlands) _LINEUP_ Gerard Haitsma......
