B.A.D. Offical‘Revelation Highway’ might just be the best slab of Hard Rock you’ll hear all year and really recaptures the classic sound of the band with a subtle modern twist.
REVOLUTIONARY SOUL is a very ambitious LP in a time when people are releasing EPs and singles these days. The fact that it’s an LP is an accomplishment in itself. Yeah. People have suggested to me that I just release a single instead of an album and I’m like “What’s that?” A single is not […]
Babylon A.D. was in my opinion one of the finest hard rock bands of the late eighties. They were a band who had the songs and had the chops of the very best, but sadly went underappreciated before ‘Grunge’ hit and ruined it for everyone. Over the last few years though they’ve been amassing fans again with […]
Babylon A.D. is pleased to announce founding member and guitarist John Matthews is back in the band line-up. He is currently recording on the new forthcoming album “Revelation Highway” and will also be performing with B.A.D. on all US and European tour dates. We are excited with the outcome of the new album and look […]
The Monsters of Rock Cruise is always filled with thrilling performances by a host of bands old and new. Each year there seems to be one performance that stands out above all of the rest. Sometimes it’s a band unseen by me before (Tyketto in 2014). Sometimes it’s an age-old favorite that simply comes to […]
Formed in 1986, Babylon A.D. hail from San Francisco, California. Original (and current) band members Derek Davis (vocals), Dan De La Rosa and Ron Freschi (guitars), Robb Reid (bass) and Jamey Pacheco (drums) brought the Whisky A GoGo house down with their brand of anthem rock. From the moment the band hit the stage with […]
The first month of January in the year 2016 found some of the greatest rock and roll bands playing at the legendary Whisky a Go Go on the Sunset Strip – iconic outfits such as L.A. Guns, Faster Pussycat, Stephen Pearcy, Bulletboys, Bang Tango, London, and Autograph all made their way to the wilds of West […]
When you think ‘Live’ albums you immediately think of Rock, and when you think about the great Live Rock albums of the past few decades some immediately jump out – Thin Lizzy’s ‘Live and Dangerous’; UFO’s ‘Strangers in the Night’; Deep Purple’s ‘Made in Japan’; Humble Pie’s ‘Performance: Rockin’ the Fillmore’ and add to that […]
BABYLON A.D. INTERVIEWED ON THE MORC CRUISE 2015 BABYLON A.D.’s Derek Davis and Robb Reid talk to The Rockpit about the new album, 25 years as a band and playing the high seas… Click Here to View the Interview
The Tom Q&A is actually quite good too even if Riki Rachman does hog the questions for himself initially. It’s out on the deck though where Frank Hannon and friends really hit the high notes on the high seas (I tried to stop writing that) – it’s great to see Tesla’s guitarist in full flight […]
Released to celebrate the band’s 25th anniversary, ‘Live@XXV’ is a reminder that this band deserve to be heard. Possibly viewed differently across the pond than here in the UK and Europe, I’m pretty sure Babylon A.D. got lumped in with the ‘also rans’ so whilst bands such as Bang Tango, Pretty Boy Floyd, Vain and […]
