Try and listen to sample 1, "Zombie". Then right before the singing starts, go to sample no. 9, "Get on Top" Just a little similar? Hard to tell from these samples, but they didn't catch my ear. A little too much "Circus" and some of the tracks are not new  |

Well, I'm listening to the album now via a streaming service. I have to admit I'm not that excited about this album. Sometimes it feels like I'm listening to the same song over and over again.
And yes, like Michael said, a couple of the songs have been out for a couple of years already, such as "Dog Eat Dog" and "The Harder They Come". In fact, this album was actually supposed to be released in 2009, but the release date kept getting delayed. I'm also curious as to why he decided to do a new version of "Coming Home" from the Melon Demon Divine album. It sounds a bit heavier this time, but there's not really a big difference.
Also, I'm just not a fan of Kee's vocals. He sounds fine on Shine On, but his vocals on Redux: Europe and Judas Kiss just don't do anything for me.

I ve listened only to dogeatdog so far and I can say it is better than what I heard in the previous album. Sounds a bit like Def Leppard at some points from Hysteria era with a little bit of AC/DC and Europe. Not bad but I better listen to the whole album before I say anything more.

the production sounds rather modern... and btw, "Love will tear us apart" is a JOY DIVISION cover.  |

Man oh man.... This guy seems to really, really being stuck to his past with Europe. Just heard a couple of songs. Listen to this
and compare it to Girl from Lebanon...
Man...

Well, of course Kee claimed in an interview that he didn't intend for it to sound like "Girl from Lebanon", but there are some strong similarities... Kinda like "The Harder They Come" and "Enter Sandman".
Going back to Judas Kiss, I've listened to it a couple of more times, and I do like some of the songs. However, it could have been a better album if Kee had just gotten a proper lead singer instead of doing the vocals himself.

The chorus of the song transported to any Europe's fan to the "GIRL FROM LEBANON" ... if his intention wasn't that,
sadly he hasn't succeeded. I think that Kee is a talent musician but he has to find his own way.
