¡ Let´s back to AOR !, This is one of the Top 3 best albums of all times, if not the best.
¡ Wow ! this Norwegian band really surprised me, this is an awesome mix between Symphonic/Power/Melodic and a soundtrack/cinematic songwriting, always with a lot of melodies and vocal harmonies, catchy power melodic rhythms, celestial female choruses and above all a strong clear production.
A real masterpiece of Melodic Hard Rock, all the song are simply beautiful and Robert Ernlund is a top class singer. The guitars dominate the mix instead of the keyboards, giving the album a true Hard Rock edge, the hooks are simply huge and the choruses, with their stacked backing vocals are catchy as hell. ¡ Only hits inside this record !
With two excellent studio albums under there belts, along comes this very good live Melodic AOR album, perfect quality it is as well, featuring most of the key tracks from the studio counterparts, Mike Slamer makes a perfect guitar execution,the voice of Billy Greer sounds superb and with a lot of feeling and the suport of Terry Brock is excellent too.
¡ Absolute amazing Melodic Hard Rock band from Spain with English lyrics !, Excellent production, catchy melodies, awesome riffs, superb vocal interpretation with feeling and passion, This is an absolute sleeper, if you don´t know this band dont doubt, this is a fuckin´great melodic band.
¡ Hard Rock to the bone !, Excellent release from Tom Keifer and company, superb songwriting, sharp guitars, amazing rhythm section, a lot of 80´s hard/glam attitude, strong songs and of course a perfect vocal execution by Mr.Keifer.
This is probably the best Melodic Power Metal album in a long time, a great project with Jani Liimatainen (Sonata Arctica) and Timo Kotipelto (Stratovarius). Perfect sound as always in the Finnish Bands, a perfect mix between faster songs and hard mid-tempo melodies, catchy chorus, good songwriting and AOR touches, a really pretty good album, if you are a little bit bored with the last power releases dont worry, this is a superb comeback to the best power times. ¡ Check it out !.
¡ Another Great, bombastic Melodic Hard Highlight from this year !, One more time a perfect production, amazing songs with probably one of the hits of 2009 (We Run), great vocal work, strong melodies, superb melodic rhythms, thundering drums, awesome guitar riffs.
¡ Amazing 2009 Highlight !, Unbelievable Melodic Hard AOR album, the vocal work of Michael Kiske (Helloween) sounds extremely perfect, passional and full of feeling, the external songwriters had a very good job, the production of Dennis Ward (Pink Cream 69) is almost perfect and the songs are totally superb, high class catchy melodies and harmonies, awesome choruses, an album highly recommended for all who love that music.
