Hardline is a band created by brothers Johnny Gioeli and Joey Gioeli, who had previously played in the bands Killerhit and Brunette (which at one point was the top-drawing band in Hollywood, setting the all-time attendance record at Gazzarri's), later played in the band Gravity, and have since returned to Hardline. The band originally also included guitarist Neal Schon, bassist Todd Jensen (ex-Sequel), and drummer Deen Castronovo, the three of whom have also played together with singer Paul Rodgers (Free and Bad Company). The band was marketed as something of a glam metal band, due to the Gioelli brothers having long hair and dressing in a glam metal style, but their sound had as much in common with hard rock.
Neal Schon left and then did several projects before finally rejoining Journey.
Todd Jensen and Deen Castronovo left to join Ozzy Osbourne, though Todd Jensen was replaced by Geezer Butler. Officially, Geezer Butler is credited for all the bass on Ozzmosis, though there have been claims that several uncredited musicians, possibly including Todd Jensen, played on parts of Ozzmosis. After the recording of Ozzmosis, Deen Castronovo was himself replaced. Eventually, Deen Castronovo joined Journey.
Drummer Bobby Rock played on Hardline's second album, II. He had previously played several times with the Gioeli brothers in the band Brunette, replacing their regular drummer Derek; they met via Rock's former Vinnie Vincent Invasion bandmate Dana Strum, who produced one of Brunette's demos, on which Rock did some drum tracks.
Angel keyboardist Michael T. Ross joined the band on keyboards for Hardline II and the live DVD when they headlined "The Gods" Festival in Bradford, England, June 2002.
Hardline are currently recording their third album, 'Just Add Water', which will be released soon as it is in the final stages of production.
