Twenty years in the music business, and still M.ILL.ION are paving on their road to rock heaven.  When I thought about this I suddenly realized that not much band of these days can still boast about a career that’s spanned twenty years or more. OK, there are a few exceptions, but in general all those one hit wonders that you hear nowadays on the radio shoot to stardom like a comet, only to end up as a  black star a short while thereafter. Does this have something to do with those bands not being able to live up to their reputation as a live band?

Now down to this album.  This is the seventh album M.ILL.ION have released so far, and a very fine album it is.  It’s not extraordinary, by which I mean that they haven’t tread unknown paths, but all songs are quite catchy, and well played, with a top notch production by Martin Kronlund.

Its strongly recommend this album to all who love good hard rock, with a slight heavy metal edge to it.

90/100
