On a Bridge of Dust is yet another Italian band with dreams of grandeur, this time within the Progressive Rock/Metal scene. And while the artwork on their debut album, Facing the Opposite leaves a lot to be desired (I am not really a fan of pink and white), the contents does offer a few tidbits to the willing listener. Granted, it is more in the [read more]
X-ray Life is a Grunge band from Venice, Italy who recently released their debut, self-titled album X-ray Life. According to several sources, they play an interesting type of Grunge heavily inspired by the likes of Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains. This is all well and good I suppose, but hardly what we deal with and as such I consider myself unfit to review [read more]
Former Toto-guitarist Steve Lukather is one of the hardest working guitarists on the planet (36 years on the road!) and now he returns to the scene with his new solo album entitled Transition. Let there be said immediately, with Transition Steve has made a solid effort where all nine tracks are equally good. Apart from a self-titled “Transition” which I found to be the most [read more]
Although I often joke about my advanced age (in spite of 'only' being in my mid-twenties), I do occasionally come across an album or two that is so utterly alien to me, that I actually feel as old as I claim to be. An the Italian six-piece Hypnotheticall have managed to create one such album entitled A Farewell to Gravity.While I can fairly quickly tell [read more]
Nightglow is yet another Italian (Sassuolo) heavy metal sextet, formed in 2003. The band is creating this beautiful fusion of power metal tones and the sheer groove and grit. Their sound is uncompromising, heavy and with a slight old-school NWOBHM style. I was actually very surprised by the amount of energy put forward on this latest opus from the band. Furthermore, I also enjoyed the [read more]
Another day, another Italian release, another surprise. This time, the five piece DieVanity are the band in question, and they have decided to create their own style of Gothic Metal, albeit with quite a few Hard Rock influences. Sounds peculiar, I can almost hear you ask? Normally I would agree, but after having listened to Ordinary Death of Something Beautiful I have reached the shocking [read more]
Italian Hard Rockers Golden Sextion released their debut album The Silicon Age a little over a year ago and yet I do not find it in my waiting hands until a few days ago – a huge loss for me!While lacking quite a few of the things I usually look for in any Hard Rock act (such as my much-beloved eighties Hard Rock / Metal [read more]
Czech ensemble Abstract Essence has flown under the radar for a number of years now. On one hand, this is surprising, as they are a one-of-a-kind act that definitely stands out from the crowd. Then on the other hand, with so many elements competing for attention, to whom is an album like Love Enough supposed to appeal?Potential listeners would have to be open minded, but [read more]
The Explorer is the second album by Minority Sound, a cyber metal group based in the Czech Republic.Some bands are very much like machines, ready to fire at all cylinders from the moment of conception, getting every little detail right from the word "Go!" More often, bands are really quite human, in need of time to come into their own. Despite dealing in futuristic, electronically-tinged [read more]
Italian Midnite Sun is Hard Rock five-man band who seem to be (heavily) inspired by the good-old eighties counterparts and make quite an effort to live up to the legacy passed down to them. And, in my opinion at least, they succeed (evidently one of the reasons why I like this album). The ten songs present on Anyone Like Us? are, for the most part, [read more]
