Benedictum formed in 2005 is an American Heavy Metal band from san diego with a powerful female singer whose voice is very heavy and reminds me a mixture between Midnight r.i.p. ( Crimson Glory) and Rob Halford. Their fifth album " Obey " has all that it is necessary of a good heavy metal record.
Angelica Rylin is a Swedish female musician known by her band " Murder of my sweet " whose music and the words she writes. Her debut Solo album "angelica" is a good hard rock record which makes me remind to the bands of the 80s such as Vixen or still to Lita Ford and Pat Benatar. Thus a good dose of Hard rock and without forgetting typical rock ballad " Can' t stop the love " or " Losers in paradise ". An album without too much surprises but which deserves a listening.
