Vinyl LP pressing. Last in Line was formed in 2011, when Vinny Appice, Jimmy Bain, and Vivian Campbell, (Ronnie James Dio's co-conspirators and co-writers on the Holy Diver, Last in Line - the album from which they took their name, and Sacred Heart albums) teamed up with esteemed vocalist Andrew Freeman. Their debut Heavy Crown was released in February 2016 to critical acclaim. Initially, the release had been preceded by tragedy when Bain unexpectedly passed away in January. Last in Line, honoring what they knew would be Bain's wish to keep the band moving, brought in renowned bassist Phil Soussan (Ozzy Osbourne) and committed to sustained touring in support of the album. In late 2017, the band gathered in L.A. to start the recording of a second album, which was produced by the band and Jeff Pilson (Foreigner, The End: machine, ex-Dokken), who also helmed Heavy Crown. Having really gelled as a band while touring, the songwriting came readily and they've created a record that shows a big progression in sound, while immediately being recognizable as Last in Line thanks to Appice's rhythms, thunderous bass from Soussan, amazing vocals from Freeman, and the roaring guitars of Campbell.
