Description
Bite The Bullet were originally formed in 1986 by singer songwriter Mick Benton and drummer Graham Cowling. They met in 1984 when they both joined West London rock band "Mother's Ruin". Thanks to the legendary Greg Lake, Benton managed to secure a solo deal with Atlantic Records and he asked Cowling to play drums. Its good to see that their collaboration is still strong to this very day.
In 1986 "Bite the Bullet" were formed and the music played was in the style of Foreigner, Toto and Mr. Mister, an album was released in 1989 to some quiet success. The music was warmly received and the band earned themselves some radio airplay.
Benton and Cowling always remained friends and they still played in pubs and clubs over the years which brings is up to 2019 when their debut was reissued on CD. It ignited a flame in the two men and brought the original recording back to the forefront again and old fans reappraised the album whilst new fans joined in. In January 2021 the year started with "Black and White" (ESM349) followed by "End of the Line" (ESM361) in 2022 in and more recently "Rocky Road" (ESM375) 2023. The band successfully combine their own unique sound with similarities to Mr Mister and Asia to produce a nice smooth rock pop sound.
We are now in 2024 and the boys have been busy writing again, giving us "Looking for Paradise" which is a great slab of pop rock with a harder edge than usual, it's a modern sound yet retains the feel of the classic 80's period. There are 11 tracks to choose from and they all hit the mark, this classic band certainly know how to pen a tune, these are exciting times!
