│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ In 1988 DARE scored a Top Ten hit in my personal ║ │
│║ long-playing chart with their debut offering, ║ │
│║ Out Of The Silence. With this new release, ║ │
│║ Darren Wharton and his compadres have once again ║ │
│║ tapped into the main artery with a collection of ║ │
│║ songs that whip the AOR leanings of yesteryear ║ │
│║ into submission. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Wharton's latter-day membership of THIN LIZZY ║ │
│║ being well charted, Blood From Stone proudly ║ │
│║ displays an alluring similarity to the ║ │
│║ vocalist's previous outfit. Debut single We ║ │
│║ Don't Need A Reason and Wings Of Fire in ║ │
│║ particular are infused with the intense, quasi- ║ │
│║ Celtic, double guitar attack LIZZY made famous. ║ │
│║ In fact Reason glories in being the most ║ │
│║ complete song on the entire album. A titanic ║ │
│║ performance that goes for the jugular with ║ │
│║ alarming accuracy. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Indeed, where DARE are concerned, the expression ║ │
│║ "AOR" is now something akin to a dirty word. ║ │
│║ Wharton's vocals are harder, grittier, filled ║ │
│║ with passion n' pain, whilst Vinnie Burns and ║ │
│║ new boy Richard Dews trade lick for lick and run ║ │
│║ for run with ever increasing levels of panache; ║ │
│║ all but negating the need for Brian Cox's ║ │
│║ artistic keyboard additions. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ However, the aforementioned tracks and the ║ │
│║ Brian-Adams-meets-Bon-Jovi-esque Lies and album ║ │
│║ closer Real Love aside, DARE's heavier approach ║ │
│║ sometimes becomes a trifle hackneyed. Cry Wolf ║ │
│║ is just too throwaway for comfort and Breakout ║ │
│║ is little more than a gonzoid break for the ║ │
│║ border. But two duffers amongst ten otherwise ║ │
│║ high quality, daringly emotive, and powerfully ║ │
│║ performed compositions is no reason to abandon ║ │
│║ Blood From Stone. As the song goes, DARE will ║ │
│║ indeed "live to fight another day," and another ║ │
│║ and another and another. Their pulse has never ║ │
│║ been stronger! Grade B ║ │
