To counter the overwhelming negative reaction to the new TNT track 'Are You Ready For Some Hard Rock', TNT guitarist Ronnie LeTekro has issued the following statement:
"The musical direction on the new album contains classic TNT songs and is generally very melodic. In that respect, ‘Get Ready For Some Hard Rock’ is kind of untypical for the album that mainly consists of melodic hard rock in the vein of '80s TNT, but we and Frontiers thought it would be a cool track as a teaser and a ‘message’ to rockers all over the world.
This album is as diverse as 'Tell No Tales' and we are very happy about it. Look out for the first proper 'single' "Tears In My Eyes" coming in May. It can’t sound more TNT than that one!
Haters and skeptics will be turned into LOVERS again. - Love & Respect, Ronni Tekro"

Wow. I do hope that the rest of the album is different than that tune.

That song is awful. Cheese aside, it's just a weak anthem with an even weaker bite. Where's the hard rock? Haha.

I'm not sure that old singer was replacable. I mean, he pretty much was the band, wasn't he?

No way!
Ronnie Le Tekrø is the band. He is an original member and main songwriter
The new song is aweful but the singer is not to blame imo.

Ewww! No high hopes for this one. But, to be fair I haven't been excited about a new release from these guys in almost 2 decades.
