Extreme vocalist Gary Cherone is back with his band Hurtsmile, and Ultimate Classic Rock is pleased to present the exclusive premiere of ‘Rock N’ Roll Cliche,’ the first single from the band’s upcoming album ‘Retrogrenade,’ which will be released on Oct. 7 on Cherone’s own label, Slipkid Records.
Van Halen‘s other lead singer says his three years with the band were a dream come true. Despite not being the most popular choice amongst VH fans, Gary Cherone says the brothers and bassist Michael Anthony treated him very well, and that he never witnessed the alcohol and drug abuse Sammy Hagar references in his book.
