One
thing is for sure when you pick up a new Ten album - they stay
faithful to their sound and style, and Gary Hughes's unique
writing style and vocals are very easily recognizable.
Gary
Hughes is blessed with a wonderful melodic voice and he has
throughout his entire career written many excellent melodic hard
rock songs, not only for Ten but also for his side projects as
well as for guys like Bob Catley. And within his little niche of
rock he continues to create brilliant songs... which this new Ten
album 'The Twilight Chronicles' is another fine example of.
Ten
has throughout
their career constantly produced great melodic hard rock albums and
'The Twilight Chronicles' features all the usual
opus of hooks, riffs, excellent melodies and themes that has
always been synonymous with a Ten release.
Once
more they've set the bar in melodic hard rock very high, and as a
fan I am very, very pleased with this new album - and Ten remains
on top of this arguably small niche in rock.
Best
moments on this album to me are the 2 epic songs: "The
Prologue/Rome" and "Hallowed Ground", and the rest
are almost as great as those 2 - so do check this great new Ten
album out, once it's released...
For
Ten fans as well as hard rock fans this is a must!
