As "Dangerous One" begins, so does the headbanging as you listen to the first notes
of the "dirty" guitars! Add the "hoarse" vocals into the mix, alongside the melodic
rhythm, and you'll see what I'm talking about! Coming right up is "My Way", with
the same "dirty" rock sound, only more melodic, with beautiful crystal-clear vocals
and a fantastic chorus! These two tracks provided an excellent start for the album!
The following track is "The Way I Am", and it's the third melodic hard rock diamond
in a row! These Russian guys have set out to drive us crazy from headbanging! We're
only at the start and my neck hurts from it! (laughs!) Amazing rhythmic bass and drums,
incredible guitar sound and vocals worthy of a rock seminar! Excellent track!
"Brand New Start", "Strangers Eyes", "Call Me" and "One Night" continue the album in
the same quality footsteps. Closing the album powerfully are "Love Behind" and "No More"!
In conclusion, this is an excellent work with amazing compositions and executions. The best
part is that their new album after "Bad Story" follows in the same quality footsteps, which
shows me that these guys are serious about it and can rock real good. This is the reason why
they've played with names such as Accept, Gotthard, Joe Lynn Turner, Whitesnake, W.A.S.P.,
Thin Lizzy, UFO, Alcatrazz, Royal Hunt and Kingdom Come.
Personally, I really dig these guys, as they have the touch and can rock real good. When "Press Hard"
is released on August 28th of 2015, I highly recommend purchasing it. It would be a smart move, as
you'd have great rock music in your hands!
They will also be doing live shows up until November of 2015,
if you can attend then, then rest assured that it will be worth it!
Rock ON and stay melodic!
