Sound Storm – Immortalia [Japan Edition +1 bonus] 2012

All Exclusive, Heavy Metal |Power Metal Leave a comment


Who said that Italy is only good for Power Metal? Well, of course we have bands like RHAPSODY and LABYRINTH (I almost forgot to mention LUCA TURILLI’S RHAPSODY, sorry for that), but the Italian Metal scene has so much more to explore, covering the bigger part of the Metal pie. SOUND STORM, hailing from Italy’s Turin, were founded in 2002, and it isn’t hard for the potential listener to discover their love for THERION, SONATA ARCTICA, NIGHTWISH (early) and EPICA. Yup, you guessed right: Symphonic Metal parts and colorful keyboards monopolize the band’s music direction, while the change between operatic and clean, powerful vocals enhanced in tot

COLORVINE (TOWER CITY) – Wake Up (2019)

Melodic Rock | AOR Leave a comment


Forget the band that was previously signed to Warner Brothers, Interscope and Atlantic, and was managed by Don Arden, the music industry legend who worked with rock icons like Ozzy Osbourne, Jerry Lee Lewis and Electric Light Orchestra. For the band today, it’s 100% about the music and the way it’s meant to be experienced. The album was recorded and mixed by Colorvine at The Fenix Room and mastered by Ken Love (DeGarmo & Key, Greg X Volz, Holy Soldier, Spock’s Beard, Neal Morse) at Sweetwater Studios.

Bon Vivant – Directo Arena (Live from Madrid) 2017

All Exclusive, Melodic Rock | AOR Leave a comment


In the tumultuous times that run for music is at least admirable the courage of the artists who continue to release albums and DVDs. A good example of this is this delivery of absolute direct from the Bon Vivant locals, where they unequivocally show that the melodic Hard Rock is still alive, it still has a lot to say, it still likes and continues to attract audiences.

Al son de tus alas
Calíope
Poquito a poco
Un poco de ti.
Soy
La penúltima
Darlo todo
Volver a creer
Si somos dos
Ahora que no estás
Aun estás cerca
I want it that way
No hay estribillos en Madrid
Soy el rock
Living on a prayer
Felicidad

Thirteen Of Everything – Our Own Sad Fate 2019

Progressive Rock Leave a comment


The Austin-based American progressive rock band Thirteen Of Everything surprised many progheads in 2005 with their debut album Welcome, Humans. Including our own reviewer. Erik Neuteboom at the time wrote: “… beautiful electric guitar … flashy synthesizer flights, powerful vocals, dynamic interplay and many shifting moods.” I couldn’t agree more! For many years the band did not release anything. But it didn’t mean they were not writing music for a successor. Between 2009 and 2018 they were very busy with several line ups to come up with an album that will be released June 7, 2019. They named it Our Own Sad Fate and after hearing the album, it shows that the long wait has certainly paid off.
