Frontiers Music [Release date : 26.09.25]
Arena Rock experts and more, Treat recently released ‘Adam and Evil’ and ‘1985’ as teaser trailers for their forthcoming long player, The Wild Card, due out in November.
The band’s high-sheen recording craft is the perfect vehicle for these two sophisticated blasts of toughened up melodic rock.
There’s a fine line between past and present (they released their debut album, Scratch And Bite in 1985), but the bond is strong. The foundational Stadium rock they created (and have recreated time after time), is celebrated here with ‘1985’s anthemic punch and sweetly effortless hook.
Sometimes nostalgic, often confessional, as in ‘Adam And Evil’s tale of a rebellious youth, the sonic images they create reflect the story in each track. Robust and memorably melodic, they pull us inexorably onto the edge of our seats.
We should hope that they release a few more teasers in the coming months. An album release date in November seems a long way off. ****
