CD review THE RAVEN AGE ‘Conspiracy’
(8/10) It’s not easy to talk about The Raven Age without mentioning Steve Harris, the father of founding member George Harris. The young guitarist is gifted with a great sense for music and shouldn’t be reduced to ‘being the son of’ only. Steve Harris and Iron Maiden might have helped the guys to get off...

CD review TIM BOWNESS ‘Flowers at the Scene’
(8/10) Sound architect Tim Bowness’ newest album includes eleven songs for which he also could win over some guest musicians, supporting him in making a really good rock album. ‘Flowers at the Scene’, that’s the title of this longplayer, isn’t a hard rocking album.

CD review IN FLAMES ‘I, the Mask’

(9/10) The fact that there‘s a lot of great music coming from Island isn‘t something new. Bands like Solstafir and others are ambassadors of Icelandic metal and here comes another one - Sinmara.

CD review EARTH MESSIAH ‘Ouroboros’
(8/10) Nine songs and 35 minutes aren’t facts that announces an epically long album. However, sometimes a short story can be far more exciting than a long novel you never work yourself through. Earth Messiah, hailing from Gothenburg, premiers with one of these ‘boiled down to the essence albums. ‘Ouroboros’ will see the record stores... Continue Reading →
CD review O.R.k. ‘Ramagehead’
(9/10) Releases through KSCOPE are mostly great, but also not light fare. The label has bands in their portfolio that all have creativity, complexity and great quality in common and O.R.k. fits perfectly into this mix. O.R.k. is a ‘super group’ if you will. I’m not a fan of such a description but in this... Continue Reading →
