Here you can see the cover of Avantasia’s new album “Moonglow” which sees the light of day on February 1st, 2019.

“I tried to calm down somehow for the last 18 months, but it seems that the best way to relax is creativity! In this state, I received a huge number of ideas that literally embodied in the epic stylistics of AVANTASIA. I was so impressed with these tracks that I quickly realized that if there was a new chapter in the history of AVANTASIA, then this material should enter

THERE IS NO question that in 1986 Europe, almost out of nowhere, became undoubtedly the biggest hard rock band on the planet. Their all-conquering hit single ‘The Final Countdown’ shot the band not only to the top of the charts worldwide but also earned them a place in the hard rock pantheon as one of the few groups who managed to appeal to not only rock fans but also to the wider public. It was with this tremendous uplift and, by consequence, pressure, that the band set about recording their follow-up album, a record that cemented not only their position but also their reputation.

WE HERE at Rock Candy have an abiding respect for Southern Rock bands, and none more so than Stillwater. An impressive seven piece, hailing from Macon Georgia, the band first arrived on our radar back in the seventies when they were filmed by the BBC’s Old Grey Whistle Test programme playing in a local club as part of Capricorn record’s annual picnic. The track shown was ‘Sam’s Jam’ a masterful guitar-drenched epic that sent a shock wave through the ranks of Southern Rock aficionados. Some of us have yet to recover from that programme.

BEING IN A band is a situation fraught with potential problems. If it’s not internal friction, stolen equipment or a clash of musical direction then insurmountable business problems often derail proceedings. For Stillwater their biggest hurdle came in the form of a career-ending incident, when their record label filed for bankruptcy just as this, their second album, was released. It was an impossible situation for them to overcome, despite the quality of this record and the band’s momentum from their acclaimed debut album and impressive live work.

“Dissonance Productions are proud to announce the release of a brand new album by Algy Ward‘s TANK. Algy Ward (former member of The Damned) formed the band in 1980. Tank was often compared to Motörhead as both bands, trios fronted by singing bassists, played a loose, almost punk-styled metal with often colourful lyrics. “Sturmpanzer” has been a longtime in the making but definitely worth the wait!”
