A Powerful Anthem of Lost Love

Written by Robert Kane and performed by Rob Kane, Xander Demos, Brendan Callahan, Emily Stroup, and Guy Cole , “When the Love Is Gone” captures themes of heartbreak, regret, and longing , wrapped in anthemic hooks and dynamic instrumentation.

Rob Kane shares the inspiration behind the song:

”It started with the intro. I had been listening to TNT’s My Religion album and Tony Harnell’s Starbreaker project, and I wanted to write something that was guitar-driven but also had keys—especially in the intro. The opening riff led to the chorus, and once I came up with the line ‘When the Love Is Gone,’ the rest of the song wrote itself around that concept.”

Guitar virtuoso Xander Demos adds:

“It’s a catchy tune, and we’ve since rethought some of the ways we play it—especially with that big chorus. We perform it in Drop-D, which gives it a cool mix between TNT and Savatage.”

Featuring Xander Demos’ electrifying guitar work , the track delivers a balance of melody and technical prowess, solidifying XDB’s place in the world of melodic hard rock .
