Listen
and learn! This bunch of genre veterans show with this album
that it is still possible to create a great melodic rock using the good
old formula: You need a strong rhythm section - Jeff Kent (bass) &
B.J. Zampa (drums) - an outstanding guitarist - Jimi Bell, who is
capable of playing melodic licks and riffs as well as blistering leads,
and last piece to the puzzle is a great vocalist - and James Christian
shows all the up and coming vocalists just how great a hard rock singer
he is.
Showing
that all you need are those four key elements - just like the good old
days, when a band like Dokken did just that. Well in all fairness, off
course there are keyboards on here as well, after all the band was
founded by Gregg Giuffria, who has helped the gang out on this album as
well...
13
of the best melodic rock songs from over there I've heard in a very,
very long time - something for everyone if you are into good melodic
rock. US style melodic rock that kicks ass, and I was really surprised
when I heard it for the first time and simply had to push "play"
again...
Welcome back House of Lords - a must for fans of this
genre, and the rest of you, do you a favour and take a listen...
