About Us
Founded in Napoli by Serafino Perugino, as a business specialized in Melodic Rock indie labels in February 1996, Frontiers soon developed as one of the cutting edge indie label companies in Melodic and Hard Rock Music. After a developing a partnership - which lasted the few initial years with the British production company Now & Then (who brought bands and artists like TEN, HAREM SCAREM, CROWN OF THORNS, JORN and several others into the label’s roster) - along with a careful and aggressive A&R policy, Frontiers has soon become synonymous with quality Classic and Melodic Hard Rock, Progressive and Metal music in the international markets.
Achieving this from the headquarters in Napoli, was not an easy task, but the well-oiled and highly ambitious team, managed in a few years to release new albums from some of Rock true giants. The list includes: DEF LEPPARD, TOTO, WHITESNAKE, YES, JOURNEY, ALAN PARSONS, MICHAEL BOLTON, SURVIVOR, SEBASTIAN BACH, STYX, ASIA, JEFF LYNNE and ELO, HEART, BLACKMORE’S NIGHT, GLENN HUGHES, Y&T, FOREIGNER, EXTREME, SAMMY HAGAR, WINGER, URIAH HEEP, DANGER DANGER, RICK SPRINGFIELD, HOUSE OF LORDS, REO SPEEDWAGON, STRYPER, MR BIG, TED NUGENT, NIGHT RANGER, PRIMAL FEAR, NELSON, WARRANT, GREAT WHITE, DENNIS DEYOUNG and many more!
Besides that, Frontiers also set up during this time many exciting new projects and bands to release of Rock's finest voices, or give some still established artists the chance to show a new side of their musical personality! Shining examples are REVOLUTION SAINTS (featuring Deen Castronovo ex-Journey, Doug Aldrich ex-Whitesnake and Jack Blades of Night Ranger), RATED X (feat. Joe Lynn Turner, Carmine Appice, Tony Franklin and Karl Cochran), W.E.T (with Jeff Scott Soto and members of Eclipse and Work of Art), THE DARK ELEMENT (featuring ex-Nightwish singer Anette Olzon and ex-Sonata Arctica guitarist Jani Liimatainen) not forgetting the evolution of KANSAS' Billy Greer and his SEVENTH KEY release, from a studio project to a real live band and the stunning PRIDE OF LIONS, featuring former SURVIVOR main songwriter Jim Peterik and vocal star Toby Hitchcock.
And of course a ton of exciting new talent launched during the years (from ECLIPSE to ONE DESIRE and INGLORIOUS, to CRAZY LIXX, LORDS OF BLACK, WORK OF ART and of course several others) which is now where the A&R focus of the label is.
Frontiers Records' foreword has always been to dream together with the thousands of people that love quality Rock music. Achieving this means constant hard work from a well-oiled and highly ambitious team at the Frontiers Records headquarters in Napoli, Italy.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2024Instant Ratt and roll classic, ranks right up there with anything Stephen has done, its just that good.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2023If you're a fan of Ratt like I am, this album will satisfy. Stephen Pearcy has not lost his edge on this album. A must have for any fan.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2021As Stephen Pearcy says, his solo albums are as close as you're gonna get to Ratt. On View To A Thrill, he delivers a pretty good substitute. It doesn't match Ratt's best work, but with that band not releasing anything new, it fills a void and more. This is a very solid album from start to finish, something Ratt (and Pearcy himself) often struggled to create. He sounds good vocally on a collection of short songs (maybe best track Sky Falling is the longest at 3:39!) that have a good amount of punch and catchy moments. At 35:24, VTAT is a brisk listen but evidence Pearcy still has something left in the tank.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2022Usually I don't even bother with new albums from 80s bands, especially solo albums, because its always trying to sound "modern" and just sucks. Well not this one. This ENTIRE album is amazing and every track sounds like it could have been on Invasion Of Your Privacy. If you are familiar with how good Infestation was, this is on par with that album.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2018Stephen and his band are truly delivering the goods on this Heavy Metal masterpiece! If you are a fan of early hard hitting Ratt you will love this. The killer guitar tone, driving rhythm section, tasteful leads and Stephen's trademark style vocals are all here. Very catchy hooks will stick with you. I couldn't wait for this when it came out which is why I pre-ordered the CD and it did not disappoint me. Great songs beginning till the end! Well worth the purchase and I feel one of his best releases of his career, which is a lot to say because he has many!
- Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2018Big Ratt fan, and an even bigger fan of Stephen Pearcy's solo stuff as of late. His voice seems stronger than ever with his characteristic growl. I loved Smash, View to a thrill is definitely as good if not a bit better. This album is a tightly wound hard rock, melodic masterpiece with a cool James Bond theme, soaring guitars with catchy riffs. I'll be listening to this ones for decades to come! Keep it up guys!
- Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2019A decent cd but no songs really stick out. Been a Ratt and Pearcy fan for years. It’s worth the buy if you are a fan of Ratt
- Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2021I had largely ignored Stephen Pearcy solo stuff and regret it now. This cd is great and a lot of it could go straight on a Ratt cd. If you like RATT you won’t regret the purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars A left hook of Hard Rock to wake you up!
Stephen Pearcy rips on this , his band is tight and they play with a passion of a pissed off., dare I say Ratt! Lol this is the closest thing your going to get to a Ratt studio album and that's not a bad thing either, even if it is his solo album . I love this album and if you're a Ratt fan you should own it.....hopefully he does another.

5.0 out of 5 stars ABSOLUTE RATT & ROLL WITHOUT THE ORIG RATT BAND
This is an absolute gem of an album !!!! Make no mistake, this album rocks and is (like another reviewer said) the closest thing you can get to a RATT album without the rest of the band but, its a little bit heavier in places. Lots of smilarities to RATT riffs (thats to be expected) but the songs are just great !!! Catchy hooks and melodies and together with Stephens' distinct trademark voice it adds up to 11 songs of pure sublime (close to) ratt n roll !!!
One thing that I miss is Warren DeMartini's blistering guitar solos; I'm not saying that the guitarist that plays on this album isnt good - because he is - but he just doesn't let it rip enough for me. Some of the solos are good but they just need to be that bit more!!!
FORGET all the previous solo albums that Stephen has done before, they aint a patch on this one. I know a previous reviewer says he prefers "Smash" but it just doesnt cut it for me - believe me, "View To A Thrill" fkn Rocks!!! A must have album for any fan of RATT (and i'm a MASSIVE RATT fan) !!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Tolles Hardrock Album !
Das Album ist zwar mit 35 Minuten etwas kurz ausgefallen, dafür rockt es aber durchgehend richtig gut. Wer auf 80er Hardrock steht sollte mal reinhören. Anspieltipps: U only live twice, Malibu, I'm a ratt oder Double shot.
Das Vorgängeralbum "Smash" ist übrigens auch sehr empfehlenswert.
