The music business is littered with stories about the good acts that got away, to be buried and forgotten. Yet looking back, it stings a little more sharply when it comes to Arrogance,
the North Carolina group featuring
Don Dixon (bass, vocals),
Robert Kirkland (guitar, vocals), Marty Stout (keyboards),
Scott Davison (drums, vocals),
Rod Abernethy (guitar, vocals).

Which is why fans of smart, catchy, forever hummable tunes are bound to rejoice at the release of 5’11 the “great lost Arrogance album” (and considered by the band members to be their best). The good guys do win in this case, artistically, at least. The tracks have been rescued from the vault, dusted off, shined up, and now, released for the
world to groove on.
