Toto – Live In Japan 1980, 2021


Six Grammy’s and another four nominations are to date to book. Of course, late-born people first associate ‘Africa’ or ‘Rosanna’ with the band, undoubtedly great songwriting art and hits. But the journey began earlier with the eponymous debut and the successor ‘Hydra’. From these two albums then also the track listing is composed, with which the band played the Japan gig in 1980, which is reproduced in very good sound on this CD. Informative background liners and archive photos on top!

Blutengel – Fountain Of Destiny 2021, 2 CD


Blutengel dedicate again themselves to the eighties and dress in “Fountain of Destiny” ten iconic songs from probably the most musically formative decade in their own garb. In doing so, they manage the incredible balancing act of respectfully retaining the original essence of the pieces on the one hand and putting their own stamp on each track on the other.

White Void – Anti 2021


Forged in the vacuum between 70s occult rock, the unapologetic hard rock of the 80s and the British new wave movement, they balance on the event horizon that separates old from new. Aggression from melody. Dream of drive

Continuing to realize that the members of “White Void” originally come from Norwegian black metal, chiptune electronica, as well as pop music and the blues, it becomes clear why “Anti” is a difficult album to categorize. It’s melodic in a gritty way, it’s driven, and it’s riddled with earworms, hooks, and licks. If nothing else, though, it’s its unabashedly cocky gesture that swears deep allegiance to our communal hard rock heritage.

CANNIBAL – Fire meets steel 2020


Released in K7 format, Fire Meets Steel with its cover as I like it (and others don’t like it), delivers seven tracks in the pure Old School 80’s tradition!Truer than true from the cover to the K7!

The song of Gretchen STEEL (between BITCH and ACID), therefore category “Heavy Punkisant”, is really very good. The production is ideal for this type of compositions. The K7 is in mode without sticker on it, it just wrote “CANNIBAL” in the marker in a hurry. The tracks are direct and effective, a very Underground Heavy but perfect for my ears, even if of course everything has already been heard a thousand times. The musicians are all in place and really have 80’s US Heavy Metal in their genes.
