German
melodic rockers disbanded in the year 2000 after they had released 4 studio
albums but they reformed at the end of 2005, and they about to release a
brand
new album called, “Brother’s Keeper”.
While
we wait for their new album Frontiers Records has just re-released their
first two
studio albums, “Fair warning” and Rainmaker”, plus a concert DVD
filmed back in 1993
in
Japan
.
Their
debut album was a pleasant surprise in my opinion containing first class
melodic Hard
Rock but sadly Fair warning can’t keep the high level on album number
two “Rainmaker”.
The
first problem I have with this album is that I find the music a bit
softer than on their debut
album. The next problem is; - Where are the memorable songs? A few of
them are great,
especially “Burning Heart”, but most of them are not above average
in my book. OK,
so the songs are well written and played, but they hardly grip you and
there also are no innovations
whatsoever.
The
production is very good and I think you should at least give it a listen
if you are into Melodic Rock
music.
