_{I didn’t know much about Norwegian based band Ammunition until they appeared amongst the upcoming Frontiers Music releases recently. When I saw that Erik Mårtensson of Eclipse and W.E.T. was part of the band I was rather keen to check out their self-titled album which was released via Frontiers on 26th January. The track “Freedom Finder” is included on the Friday NI Rocks Show this week.}

_{“Lione – Conti” is the debut album from a partnership between Italian vocalists Alessandro Conti and Fabio Lione and it was released via Frontiers Music on 26th January. It’s promoted by the label as an Italian version of the Allen / Lande partnership featuring vocalists Russell Allen and Jorn Lande and that seems a reasonable comparison. The track “Ascension” is included on the Friday NI Rocks Show this week.}

_{Delta Deep is a side project started by Def Leppard guitarist Phil Collen back in 2012 and is described as “an extreme blues project”. They released their self-titled debut album in 2015, but that is being released by Frontiers Records on 26th January along with a new live album called “East Coast Live”. This is actually a recommendation therefore for two albums as both are very much worth checking out. I included the live version of “Down In The Delta” on the Friday NI Rocks Show this week.}
