Blackbird

Blackbird is a band coming from South-West Germany.  To cut a long story short.  If you’re into bands like AC/DC, Krokus, Airbourne, and want to have a good time, you definitely should buy this album.

It’s pure no-nonsense rock’n’roll from start to end.  The vocals sound like a mix between Brian Johnson and Udo Dirkschneider.  Of course not all songs are equally good, but isn’t this type of music meant to have fun?  In which case it doesn’t do any harm if some songs sound alike.

House Of Lords

Most of House Of Lords albums are good, if not very good. And this new album is no exception on that rule. Of course it brings us nothing new, since the band, or their mastermind James Christian stick to the same recipe. 

Foreigner

Since their reunion in 2005, Foreigner has become a very successful unit again, despite only founder Mick Jones remained from the legendary line-up. However with Kelly Hansen he has found not only someone who could match the warm timbre of Lou Gramm but also improve and add his own identity to the vocals of the many classic songs the band has produced in their 40 years of existence. Of course many best of albums have passed the revue but this time a live registration with mainly the ballads was a first.

Dyscarnate

Dyscarnate an English band founded in Horsham in the year 2004. Current members are Henry Bates (Bass, Vocals) Matt Unsworth (Drums) and Tom Whitty (Guitars, Vocals). A band playing death metal with a lot of hardcore influences.

Birth of Joy

I remember when I received the first album from this Dutch band a few years ago, their bluesy organ rock was a bit too average for my taste, although it was obvious that they had the technical skills to reach a better level.

Adrenaline Mob

Adrenaline Mob formed in early 2011 in New York. By singer Russell Allen (Symphonny X), guitarist Mike Orlando and drummer Portnoy (ex-Dream Theater). After some changes of members, Mike Portnoy left in june 2013 due to ‘scheduling conflicts’ .For the moment are the current members: Russell Allen (Vocals), Mike Orlando (Guitars), John Moyer (Bass) and AJ Pero (Drums formerly Twisted Sister).

ZOM

It has been released more than four months ago in mean time, this vinyl-effort, but since I did receive this stuff only recently, and for this material is oh-so jummie… Besides, it’s stuff provided via Invictus Productions, and who am I to ignore this superior label…

Widows

Here's an interesting one. Widows is a UK (Nottingham) band whose sound is much akin to older Clutch, Trucker Diablo, Throttlerod, Down and a dirtier Orange Goblin.
