After severely damaging the Starbreaker 12 while flying through the Starswarm Cluster, Gav and Jori soon found themselves with a price on their heads, put on by Merchant Lord Ssk Kahorr after one of his drone ships crashed into Primus Goluud while using the Goluud Corridor, one of the Daragons' hyperspace lanes.
When Jori arrived on Koros Major, she was immediately arrested for a plethora of crimes, most notably stealing the Starbreaker 12, and was sentenced to slave work on the colony world of Ronika, with the Starbreaker 12 being put into the possession of Ssk Kahorr as compensation for his damages.
She was easily able to escape Ronika on an ore shuttle and flew back to Koros Major, where she infiltrated Empress Teta's fortress and informed her of the impending Sith invasion.

 Get Ready to ROCK! Review of CD album by rock band Starbreaker featuring TNT vocalist Tony Harnell
Starbreaker is a new band/project fronted by TNT vocalist Tony Harnell, ably assisted by Magnus Karlsson (guitar/keys), Fabrizio Grossi (bass/producer) and John Macaluso (drums).
It’s certainly heavier than TNT but not sure I’d call it metal like the promo blurb does, more classic hard rock in sound and style.
The sound of Starbreaker is more in line with Tony Harnell’s other offshoot Westworld, in that the guitars take a more prominent role and the riffs are a lot heavier.

 [No title]
I would have actually wanted it to be even heavier than Starbreaker was but that was definitely more in the right direction and I think it was a lot of fun for me to try something a little different than TNT.
There may be something in the future and I'm not really sure how far Starbreaker is going to go at the moment.
We have www.tnttheband.com and we have www.myspace.com/tntonline and of course there's www.tonyharnell.com so people can check all those out to find out what's going on with me and with TNT and Starbreaker or whatever else they're interested in.

Judas Priest Tracks: Sinner, Diamonds And Rust, Starbreaker, Last Rose Of Summer, Let Us Prey/Call For The Priest, Raw Deal, Here Come The Tears, Dissident Aggressor, Race With The Devil, Jawbreaker (live).
Other metal standards include "Starbreaker", "Call for the Priest" (speed metal indeed!!) and much beloved track from hell "Dissident Aggressor" (awesome power from Rob!).
What makes this album a curiousity is the inclusion of some much slower material and of course the Joan Baez cover "Diamonds and Rust" which I have never cared for but many metal fans seem to like.

Starbreaker is a new band, but it is by no means a rookie band.
Fronting the band on vocals is Tony Harnell, who was the lead singer from the band TNT.
I haven’t really listened to TNT before, so I can’t really give a comparison between them and Starbreaker, but I am sure that most fans of hard rock and some metal will be able to enjoy this album.

After Karlsson came into the picture and began writing, Harnell began working on melodies and lyrics, and Macaluso was brought into complete the lineup.
Followers of Harnell’s career will note that Starbreaker is a heavier record than most of his previous work and his singing is noticeably more aggressive this time around.
The CD booklet for “Starbreaker” features a rather bleak series of artistic renderings of a post-apocalyptic-like Hollywood.

Every song is flavorful composition, which truly has to be heard to be experienced and fully appreciated.
STARBREAKER’s debut release is yet another jewel in the crown of Tony Harnell and the rest of the band alike.
And if you get a chance, there’s some rumor that although originally put together as sort of a side project for these musicians, the band will be performing some shows in support of the release.

A recognizable, emotional voice with an extraordinary range is what made him to what he is now: the excellent frontman of two bands, TNT and Westworld in particular.
This is an album I would probably buy myself.” Producer and bandmate Fabrizio Grossi adds: “Tony and John were cornerstones in my shaping up and the Swede (he means Magnus Karlsson) was a great icing on the cake.” Well, what can I do more than confirm what both band members just have said.
“Starbreaker” is an album that hardly leaves my CD player, because the album is filled with almost only highlights.

Starbreaker defines the new generation of Metal bands we've seen and heard sprout up lately.
They have a lot of modern elements, but maintain melody and musicianship which we come to expect from these artists.
Starbreaker is not as "radio-friendly" as TNT and maybe is more similar to Westworld in that regard.
