This is the debut album from this young English band. And a fine album it has become.
Production of the album was done by Michael Voss, which is always a good sign and immediately gives you a hint that you”re going to listen to some quality music. The song contributors are also well versed in the business, among others Steve McEwan (Foreigner, Roger Daltrey, Robbie Williams) but also Tommy Denander and Herman Rarebell have written songs for this album.
It was only in 2012 that Impera released its debut album ‘Legacy Of Life’, and one year later they enjoy the rock world by releasing their second album ‘Pieces Of Eden’, which is equally, if not even more impressive than their debut album.
Until Rain is a band hailing from Thessaloniki in Greece. This is their second full album, having previously released ‘Reign Of Dreams’, their debut album in 2009, and an EP ‘Pandemic’ in 2011.
Lawless are a new band, featuring (veteran) members Neil Ogden and Paul Hume from Demon, and Howie G from Persian Risk, further completed by Headrush bassist Josh “Tabbie” Williams.
What these guys bring us is what I’d call eighties style classic hard rock. It’s not bad, but it lacks originality. St to say they’ve taken every cliché and put it in this album is a bit of an understatement.
I had never heard of Aldo Giuntini or for that matter of the Giuntini Project yet its seems he’s an Italian guitar Wizardand has released three prior Giuntini Project albums between 1993 and 2006.
Formed back in 2004, Greece progressive metal band Until Rain released their debut ‘The Reign of Dreams’ in 2009 quickly followed by the EP ‘Pandemic”. Now 4 years later their second album ‘Anthem To Creation’ has seen the light of day. The eleven tracks presented here are characterized with a very complex and experimental structure consequently resulting in multiple spins to get customized. Obviously these guys are very talented and creative musicians and like to show this to the world.
The mastermind behind this band/project is Swedish guitarist Stefan Lindholmd who formerly played in the band Raven Lord. Having released two previous Vindictiv albums, the 2008 ‘Vindictiv’ album and 2009’s follow up album ‘Ground Zero’, here we have the third opus. And for this third album, it is no longer Goran Edman who does the vocals, but Marco Sandron (ex Eden’s Curse) has taken over the mike.
Although Snowfall hails from Norway, their vocalist is none other than British singer Lee Small (Shy, Phenomena). The band started with PB Riise and Tore Meli when their previous band Winter Parade. The band was further completed by Perra Johnson (Coldspell).
This is the second album for Brazilian’s Alec Mendonça’s band – or is it just a project N.O.W.. The line-up has completely changed when compared to the previous album, except Alec of course.
Rage Of Angels is not a band, but a project. It is the brainchild of original Ten keyboard player Ged Ryland. He wrote all songs over a 10 year period.
