Def Leppard who for me, is the best Hard Rock English band of of all times returns to us with a live record which takes us in a universe of the years of glory of the band with all their past hits until now. Everything is there, a best of with a great sound and a band which lost nothing of its scenic energy giving to his fans all that he needs and that’s “pure rock n roll”. A must for all Def Leppard fans!
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.
Founded in late 2008 by former Alabama Thunderpussy guitarist Asechiah Bogdan, alongside singer Dorthia Cottrell, second guitarist Garrett Morris, bassist Nathan Hilbish, and drummer Jeff Loucks, this Richmond, Virginia based Stoner/ Doom Metal act first had itself heard of with their self-titled 2-track demo, recorded in the rehearsal space and released in limited copies (only 80 made) in August 2010.
Stoner fans, beware! For Vista Chino is simply the new bandname taken on by John Garcia (singer), Brant Bjork (drums) and Bruno Fevery (guitar), now that the other former Kyuss members Josh Homme and Scott Reeder won their law suit against Kyuss Lives! using that name for any recordings. Further proof of the ongoing animosity between the former Kyuss members.
More than 30 million sold albums and thousands of concerts, the virtuoso and eccentric Ted Nugent returns to us with a live record of thunder. Ultralive Ballisticrock has all that it is necessary. Rock n roll attitude with all the best of the best of the 70s until now. As usual, a perfect sound and energetic solos, jokes between songs , well a beautiful live compilation for all the fans of Mister Nugent.
After waiting again 3 years en new record from Monster Magnet with frontman and founder Dave Wyndorf. I was expecting a more powerful number with more content to open the cd. The title track is much better more than 9 minutes ; trippy arrangement , psychedelic and great melodies. “Three Kingfishers” is a cover from Donovan (album Sunshine Superman) at the late sixties.
Artillery Legions their seventh album… This will also be the first album to feature Josua on drums and Michael Bastholm Dahl on vocals. These guy making thrash like nobody else. The ten songs are well written for a trash record. What a clean-throated Voice from Michael Bastholm! My favorites are the powerful, punshig “God Feater” and slow Global Flatline”. At all not a bad album from this Danish trashmetal band. Well done!
