JZLP-NaughtyNottingham Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Statement by Esjay Jones (Producer of The Phoenix) "IT’S HERE ‼️‼️‼️ We started writing “The Phoenix” two years ago with the vision to fulfill the dream that @chesterbe had for @greydazeofficial : A HARD ROCK ALBUM THAT FELT LIKE A BAND 🔥 This album was a heavy lift emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually. Working on completely new versions of each song and in isolation with Chesters vocals for 365 days straight was unnerving : the weight on my shoulders to give Chester, the band, his family, the girls and the fans exactly the love and respect that Chester deserved felt crippling… BUT I truly believe in my heart that we accomplished more than what we set out to achieve 🫶 Thank you @sean_dowdell @greysquirrel65 @cristindavisofficial for your unwavering trust in me. NOW GO LISTEN TO “HOLE” featuring Lily and Lila Bennington - the girls absolutely rocked it @talinda320 😻😻😻 Written by Esjay Jones + Grey Daze Produced by @esjayjones1 Engineered by @brianvirtuemusic Edited by @ilanbenitah Mixed by @lucas_dangelo Mastered by @emilylazarlodge & @the_lone_hammer_of_justice_666" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somebodyangry Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Love the album! My fav is Holding You I guess, but Spin and Believe me are good contenders. Solid record. The only weird things are Hole intro and the slowed down Anything Anything, kinda weird. Verdict 8,5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumxyz Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 Album is not bad, but I'm really sad they changed Hole ... 😭 The Instagram version was absolute fire. This version sounds ... meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i agree that the idea was cool but i’m glad that I’m not the only one who found it slightly creepy. First time I played the song I was like “what’s that ? James Wan’s Dead Silence soundtrack?” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
