"Nitrate is back with their third album, 'Renegade', a follow on to their previous highly rated albums 'Realworld' in 2018 and 'Openwide' in 2019, which achieved great success. Inspired by the late '80s rock scene with bands such as Def Leppard, Europe, Motley Crue, and Bon Jovi, Nitrate is the brainchild of songwriter Nick Hogg (bass guitar) from Nottingham, England. Nick has this time changed the line-up and enlisted
Alexander Strandell (Art Nation) to take over on lead vocals and has teamed up with Tom and
James Martin (Vega) and Mikey Wilson (Kimber) to produce an album that has been heavily influenced by Def Leppard's 'Hysteria'. With Tom
Martin playing all the rhythm guitars and
James Martin taking over on keyboards, the album delivers a more melodic/AOR feel than ever before. Renegade delivers 11 hook filled tracks with great melodies, walls of keyboards and backing vocals supplied by Alessandro Del Vecchio. Tracks were inspired from bands such as Def Leppard, Starship, Journey, Skid Row, and
Roxette making for a true '80s sound. Taking over on lead guitar is Dario Nikzad (Hell To Play)."
