The fourth addition to Americade's "Americadence" box set is called "Heroes Are Back" and contains previously unreleased recordings from sessions during 1984 and 1986. The 1984 sessions were recorded at the legendary Kaufman Astoria Studio in New York and produced by noted producer Ben Rizzi. Those songs were intended for a full movie production called "Electric Prophet" (loosely based on the life of Jimi Hendrix) which never saw light of day. The 1986 sessions were recorded at Fred Zarr studios in Brooklyn, NY and features a few tracks with top session players Fred Zarr on keyboards and Jay Cuccurullo on drums. On these recordings, you will notice a shift in musical style here, as Americade moves into more commercial arena-style melodic hard rock / AOR territory with the use of more keyboards. Alot of fantastic material on offer, as the De Marigny's have sharpened their songwriting and musical skills -- infectious hooks galore with more of P.J.'s unique signature vocal screams and Gerard's guitar prowess. Digitally remastered.
