Novo álbum do Whitesnake - Forevermore

Forevermore

Ao consultar alguns vídeos do mestre Doug Aldrich, ví em sua agenda o lançamento do novo álbum com o Whitesnake e David Coverdale.
Após 3 anos o Whitesnake está com nova obra com toques acústicos cordas e voz e também das plugadas guitarras que lembram o Sleep of the Tongue.

Dedilhados, voz grave e a tradicional balada romântica...estão presentes, é claro.

In 2008, Whitesnake released their first studio album in more than a decade, Good to Be Bad. The album was well-received, and charted in several countries. Whitesnake guitarist Doug Aldrich revealed that he had started coming up with song ideas for a followup in 2009, a year after Good to be Bad was released. Aldrich also noted that "David [Coverdale, Whitesnake frontman] had said that he might wanted ^[sic] to make a record and maybe it could be more acoustic-based."^[8]

David Coverdale has stated that he believes Forevermore is "still embracing all those elements that drew [the band's fans] to Whitesnake in the first place."^[9]
