"The Disregard of Timekeeping" is the debut studio album by the hard rock band Bonham, released in 1989. The band is fronted by drummer Jason Bonham, the son of legendary Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, which immediately garnered significant attention and comparisons.
Here's a brief summary:
- Band and Lineup: The band Bonham featured Jason Bonham on drums, Daniel MacMaster on lead vocals (whose voice often drew comparisons to Robert Plant), Ian Hatton on guitar, and John Smithson on bass, keyboards, and violin.
- Musical Style: The album delivers a blend of hard rock, glam metal, and classic rock, often evoking the sound of Led Zeppelin and other prominent 70s and 80s hard rock bands. It's characterized by:
- Powerful, thunderous drumming: As expected from Jason Bonham, his drumming is a highlight, channeling his father's powerful and distinctive style.
- Majestic guitar/keyboard riffs: Ian Hatton's guitar work, combined with Smithson's keyboards, creates a full, anthemic sound.
- Soaring vocals: Daniel MacMaster's vocal delivery is strong and often high-pitched, fitting the hard rock genre of the era.
- Focus on melody and hooks: Despite the heavy instrumentation, the songs are generally structured with catchy choruses designed for radio play.
- Production: The album was produced by Bob Ezrin, a renowned producer known for his work with Alice Cooper, Pink Floyd, and Kiss. Ezrin's production gives the album a polished, bombastic sound typical of late 80s hard rock.
- Key Tracks & Hits: The album's most well-known track is "Wait for You," which became a significant hit on rock radio and even crossed over to the Billboard Hot 100. Other notable tracks include the instrumental title track "The Disregard of Timekeeping," "Guilty," and "Dreams."
- Reception and Legacy: "The Disregard of Timekeeping" was a commercial success, reaching the Top 40 on the Billboard 200 album chart. While some critics found it to be a competent but somewhat conventional take on the hard rock sound, others praised its energy and the clear talents of the musicians. It's often seen as an impressive debut that successfully paid homage to classic rock influences while carving out its own space in the late 80s rock scene. For fans of Led Zeppelin, classic hard rock, and arena rock, it remains a well-regarded album.
