0 Youngblood – No Retreat (2012)
Eonian Records has been putting out some cool stuff over the last few years, but their latest release No Retreat by Youngblood is a step above anything they have put out yet. How this CD didn’t get released in the early nineties is mind-boggling! No Retreat is packed with catchy tunes that every fan of hair metal is going to love.
What does the band sound like? How about a blend of Steelheart, Poison and Extreme?! It really is that good! Singer Bobby Sisk could give Miljenko Matijevic a run for his money.
No Retreat is one of those rare releases where there is no filler songs at all. My favorites are “Pump It Up”, “Get Down To It”, “Heat of the Passion”, “Taste of Your Lovin’ “, “Back In My Life” and “Don’t Play With My Head”. It is a tall order for any band to write an album full of good songs. Youngblood has dished out sixteen of them on “No Retreat”!
With music this good, I hope Youngblood will do some reunion shows. I would love to hear the songs on No Retreat played live!
If you are a fan of hair metal, do yourself a favor and pick up a copy of this CD! You won’t be disappointed!

1 YOUNGBLOOD’S “NO RETREAT” ALBUM RELEASE TODAY; EONIAN RECORDS PRESENTS YOUNGBLOOD VIDEO TEASER
Metallers Youngblood have released their debut full-length album: NO RETREAT October 9th in North America and throughout Europe on Eönian Records and distributed by Sony RED & Nightmare Records. Produced by Jeff Diehl (who has worked with such legends and luminaries as Gene Simmons, Sweet FA, Ma Kelly, Kramus, Healing Sixes, Eddie Kramer and many more.) NO RETREAT was recorded in the band’s hometown of Indianapolis and has been referred to as a hot, fiery fist of Rock n’ Roll and the band compared to as a blend of Warrant, Slaughter and Firehouse. Please see below for full track-listing.
Hailing from Indianapolis, Youngblood cut their teeth relentlessly playing 4 to 6 nights a week, 10 to 12 months a year. The band came onto the music scene when Sony/Epic Music first heard the band’s demo of NO RETREAT’S first single “Don’t Play with My Head.” The band worked tirelessly for nine months to generate forty-five tracks that were mixed and mastered by Diehl Productions. Sixteen tracks are being released on the band’s first album NO RETREAT. MelodicRock.com declares “Youngblood’s attitude and music have ‘star-power’ written all over it”, while Senda Producciones says NO RETREAT is “Insanely awesome …this music is f**king orgasmic!” Europe’s top Hard Rock & Metal publication, Fireworks Magazine sums up NO RETREAT in just one word “BRILLIANT!”
YOUNGBLOOD is Bobby Sisk (Lead Vocals), Jeff Diehl (Guitars & Vocals), Eric Saylors (Guitars & Vocals), Danny Williams (Keyboards & Vocals), Kyle Koker (Bass & Vocals), and Kevin Kale (Drums).

0 NEW HARD ROCK SENSATION YOUNGBLOOD IS UNEARTHED BY EONIAN RECORDS
Indianapolis natives YOUNGBLOOD finally release their amazing debut album “NO RETREAT” this October, through Eönian Records.
Featuring guitarist and producer Jeff Diehl, who has worked with such legends and luminaries as Gene Simmons, Sweet FA, Ma Kelly, Night Ranger, Kramus, Eddie Kramer and many more. YOUNGBLOOD also toured extensively as Epic Records recording artist Henry Lee Summers’ backing band.
With industry and media stalwarts likening YOUNGBLOOD’s sound to that of Slaughter, Steelheart, Firehouse, Skid Row, Motley Crue, Extreme and even Bon Jovi, this album is sure to light up the airwaves and be recognized as a bonafide modern classic of Sunset Strip influenced heavy rock.
Featuring mind-blowing musicianship, and completely re-mixed and re-mastered, these tracks – originally recorded for Sony/Epic Records in 1989 – storm out of the speakers like velvet thunder, and with the global resurgence of hard rock and hair metal are sounding as contemporary as anything recorded today.
Hard Rock archaeologists Eönian Records have partnered with YOUNGBLOOD to deliver what may be THE hair metal release of 2012 – and with ample material still in the vault, you can expect to hear more from this band very soon.
Eönian Records recently began a distribution deal with the premiere and award-winning Independent Distribution Company Sony RED throughout the US and Nightmare Records Worldwide.
YOUNGBLOOD is Bobby Sisk on Lead Vocals, Jeff Diehl on Guitars & Vocals, Eric Saylors on Guitars & Vocals, Danny Williams on Keyboards & Vocals, Kyle Koker on Bass & Vocals, and Kevin Kale on Drums.
