Agent Provocateur

Foreigner

High-gloss 80s rock where massive synthesizers meet muscular riffs. Home to one of the most iconic power ballads ever recorded, wrapped in neon-lit production.

Find on Amazon

The ultimate 80s power-ballad album that still knows how to kick out a heavy riff when it wants to.

A high-gloss blend of stadium-sized confidence and late-night emotional vulnerability.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The massive, transcendent entrance of the New Jersey Mass Choir on the album's centerpiece ballad.
The aggressive, palm-muted guitar chug that kicks off Tooth and Nail with unexpected grit.
The shimmering, icy synthesizer pads that introduce the nocturnal atmosphere of Stranger in My Own House.
