Loud Lion created a huge buzz several years back, but their album never appeared....until now! Loud Lion is the brain child of
pop/rock icon Bleu who put together the project to pay homage to Mutt Lange and Def Leppard. The album includes 9 original
songs "in the style of" classic Def Leppard and features Bleu along with Taylor Locke (Bleu's co-creator & main partner in LoudLion,
most widely known as the lead guitarist for Rooney), Adam Ross (Rihanna's touring guitarist), Allison Robertson (The Donnas lead guitarist),
Maclaine Diemer (Bang Camaro - keyboards, guitar), John Fields (uber producer), and Dylan Halacy (Bang Camaro - drums).
All songs produced by Bleu.
So, let's start..."Love Will Break Your Heart" and from the first few notes you'll realize that we're talking for an amazing melodic hard rock track!
It will definitely remind you of Def Leppard at their best, but the truth is that this is much better! "Lion's Den" continues the album as a melodic
and rhythmic track, just after 15 seconds of its start you'll have turned the volume up to max!! (laughs) Afterwards, it's time for "Lion Eyes" and
there's no chance the volume will be turned down! Following "Lion Eyes" is the album's beutiful ballad song, "Die Tuff". Incredible melodic guitars
and crystal-clear vocals will make you listen to the track at least twice! Following that is the most known track of the album "The Hills Have Eyes",
this is because it was featured in a 2007 horror movie, "The Hills Have Eyes 2". Right after that comes the amazing track that goes by the name of "Sunset Slip". With "dirty" guitars and vocals, great melody and rhythm, it will make you headbang non-stop!!
"None More Fast" closes the album with a beautiful and strange melodic hard rock composition!
Conclusion? On May 19th, melodiRock records will release one of the best albums of 2014, which will be a hot topic of discussion!
The best thing you can do is get it immidiately once it's released, and rest assured that it will be worth every penny!!
Simply amazing, as for the score, can't give it any less than 10/10!
