      They rarely do interviews all together anymore, either, since it’s so difficult for them to find a time when they can all be there. They each have their own pursuits they’re busy with.

    That dude can REALLY sing! I know the Robert Plant comparisons are everywhere, but Josh’s voice just soars. I’ve heard very few rock vocalists belt it like he can. I really dig their sound, wish there were more rock acts like them on mainstream radio

      Your rock knowledge is obviously very very limited. Starting in the 50's to the present, every decade has generated incredible rock vocal talent that goes well beyond what he can do. Josh and the band try so hard to immulate those times and bands.

    Their shows have gotten far more professional and polished in the 4 times I have seen them going back to playing clubs like Rebel in 2018 to arena shows presently.

    This is their fourth.
    1. From the Fires
    2. Anthem of a Peaceful Army
    3. Battle of Garden's Gate
    4. Starcatcher
    I think if you're going to publish about a band you should know what you're talking about 😂 (and I'm saying this because I've seen this twice now, once in an article commenting on the new album, and this interview's caption/title).

      This band is too amazing for the critics to keep up with. The critics seriously underestimated the God given talent these 4 musicians have. They wanted to write them
      off as Zeppelin wannabes but they will all eat their words. They sound like Greta Van Fleet and they did something I thought a few years ago would never happen. They revived Rock and Roll. They are innovative songwriters and recaptured the magic this genre once had. I never thought their would ever be a Gen Z rock fan base but because of GVF there is.
