Our top 10 Adrenaline Mob songs list looks at the catalog of an American band revered for its contribution to the metal scene. Formed in the early 2010s, Adrenaline Mob established itself as a powerhouse in the music scene with its hard-hitting heavy metal sound influences. Other than heavy metal, Adrenaline Mob’s sound repertoire also features a mixture of alternative metal and hard rock sound influences.

Among the original members of the band include former Avenged Sevenfold and Dream Theater drummer Mike Portnoy, guitarist Mike Orlando, and Symphony X singer Russell Allen. The trio went ahead to consider adding rhythm guitarist Rich Ward and bassist Paul Di Leo to the band’s lineup. It is worth noting that rhythm guitarist Rich Ward was (and still is) a member of the bands Fozzy and Stuck Mojo.

In addition, bassist Paul Di Leo also served as a member of the band Fozzy. Paul also featured in a number of Gold/Platinum-certified albums issued by the German pop musician Nena. Unfortunately, Rich Ward and Paul Di Leo’s membership at Adrenaline Mob was short-lived with the duo departing in 2012.

Since the departure of Rich Ward, guitarist Mike Orlando took on the rhythm guitarist role. Adrenaline Mob has also had a few lineup changes especially on the bass. The departure of Paul Di Leo saw the band recruit bassist John Moyer of the heavy metal act Disturbed. Moyer served in the band until 2014 having his position taken by bassist Eric Leonhardt. After serving for three years as the band’s bassist, Eric was replaced by bassist David Zablidowsky, who also played with Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

Unfortunately, David’s tenure at Adrenaline Mob was short-lived—David lost his life after he was involved in an accident as the band was traveling for a concert. Since David’s departure, Mike Orlando took on the studio bass roles. Notably, David was Adrenaline Mob’s second member to have lost his life after the death of former Twisted Sister drummer A.J. Pero. Pero died in 2015 having served as a drummer in Adrenaline Mob since 2013—the drummer had been recruited as a replacement for Mike Portnoy who had left Adrenaline Mob after two years of service.

A Brief Review of Adrenaline Mob’s Albums

In 2012, Adrenaline Mob went ahead to issue their debut studio album OmertàOmertà was issued through Elm City Music/Century Media Records under the production of the band members. The album is the most rewarding release by Adrenaline Mob ranking seventieth on the Billboard 200. Omertà also made it to the Swiss, Swedish, Dutch, and Finish Albums Charts.

However, the album barely achieved commercial success. Omertà is home to some of the best Adrenaline Mob songs including “Undaunted,” “Indifferent,” “All on the Line,” “Psychosane,” and “Angel Sky.” The album also features Adrenaline Mob’s cover of the 1993 Duran Duran hit “Come Undone.” Featured on Adrenaline Mob’s cover of this song was Lzzy Hale of the rock band Halestorm.

Men of Honor, issued in 2014 marked Adrenaline Mob’s sophomore studio album. The album was preceded by the band’s most revered covers-only extended play by the title Covertà. Covertà featured eight cover songs that paid tribute to the musicianship of the acts Badlands, Black Sabbath, Van Halen, The Doors, Led Zeppelin, Heart, Dio, and Rainbow. Covertà managed to enter the Billboard 200 Chart peaking at position one hundred and seventy-three.

Back to the album Men of Honor, the only album by the band to have featured the late Twisted Sister drummer A. J. Pero. Men of Honor went ahead to become the band’s final record to make an entry into the Billboard 200 Chart peaking at number ninety-nine. “Come on Get Up,” “Feel the Adrenaline,” “Mob is Back,” and “Dearly Departed” are some of the most popular songs from Adrenaline Mob.

In 2017, Adrenaline Mob returned with their third studio album We the People. The album was issued through Century Media Records with Adrenaline Mob giving us a taste of its usual heavy metal sounds tinged with alternative rock and hard rock influences. “King of the Ring,” “Lord of Thunder,” “We the People,” and “Chasing Dragons” are the top musical gems from Adrenaline Mob on this album.

Adrenaline Mob’s cover of the 1983 Billy Idol Hit “Rebel Yell” was issued as a bonus track to the album We the People. Unfortunately, the album We the People was a mainstream flop missing entry into the Billboard 200 Chart. Nevertheless, the album managed to grace the Swiss, Dutch, and Belgian Album Charts.

For more than a decade now, Adrenaline Mob has established itself as one of the most coveted supergroups in the rock scene thanks to its hard-hitting heavy metal sound. Of course, the band doesn’t have an array of awards to showcase for its remarkable musicianship. Here we present our all-time top 10 Adrenaline Mob songs.

#10- Chasing Dragons

Our top 10 Adrenaline Mob songs review starts with the outstanding hit “Chasing Dragons.” The song is among the standout tracks off the band’s third studio album We the People. “Chasing Dragons” is a high-energy rocker featuring conspicuous drums by Jordan Cannata and soaring vocals by Russell Allen. Of course, the two elements give this song quite a classic metal feel.

However, the song is more than this! Its benevolent message to the band’s fans (and the world at large) in regard to the opioid crisis plays a pivotal role in this song’s popularity. The song’s blistering guitar solos add some appeal to the song. “Chasing Dragons” features a lyric video that accompanies outrageous facts and figures about the opioid crisis.

In a nutshell, “Chasing Dragons” tries to raise awareness among the masses about the rising rates of opioid dependency. Still, in 2017, the band Theory of a Deadman achieved some success with its hit “Rx (Medicate)” whose themes align to those of the song “Chasing Dragons”—the song’s lyrics were inspired by the intensifying prescription drug epidemic in the US.
