a classic Journey Frontiers era
sound. This power trio is Doug
Aldrich (Whitesnake), Jack Blades
(Night Ranger) and Deen Castronovo (Journey). Their self-titled
debut album runs the gamut from

the band on YouTube. The Revolution Saints debut Castronovo as
the powerful and Perryesque lead
singer after 17 years sitting behind
the drum kit.
