PRIDE OF LIONS „The Destiny Stone”
Yeah, the 80´s are alive!! 🙂 I feel like getting back! Even I can talk about that with my 22 years. My parents listened to that kind of music often! AOR at its best! I knew that I know that voice from anywhere: Jim Peterik in Survivor.

NOSTRADAMEUS „Hellbound”
Oops, if you press the start button of your CD player, I was near to get a heart attack! But, hey: cool! *Moan*, I love power metal…

RIOTS „The Dark Prophecy (EP)”
Riots, since 1999 here on earth, born through Stephan Brune, enlarged by Florian von Bargen in the year 2002 and to be fullfilled by Olaf Kissing on drums and Sebastian Funke on guitars, this German mixture of sleaze, gothic and heavy elements is on the best way to have success. In the Ruhrgebiet/Germany well-known, Riots rocked right to the first places of the worldwide biggest newcomer festival called Emergenza.
LUNATICA „Fables & Dreams”
As in 1999 the Swiss band LUNATICA was founded, they had a few difficulties to find a good singer. With Andrea Dätwyler they found a singer with an atmospheric voice, which fits, due to the band, well with the LUNATICA songs.
GOTTHARD „One Team One Spirit The Very Best”
Since Gotthard released their debut album in 1992, there has been happening much around the Swiss guys. Many, many great hard rock CD´s were born and have seen the light of day and that is why it seems to be time for a best of album.
RHAPSODY „Symphony of Enchanted Lands II The Dark Secret”
Impressing!!! Wow I had never thought that I would like Rhapsody!!! But I am able to say that after I heard this CD twice. I had a lot of prejudices, because I think Rhapsody were awful to the times of Dawn of Victory.
JEFF SCOTT SOTO „Lost in the Translation”
Jeff Scott Soto, so so, so to, he he, I am just kidding As I found that in my mailbox, I thought to myself: Wow a new Jeff Scott Soto is what I have got here! I am very curious about that! and threw it in my CD player… Well, he just sings for every band who wants him.
ZILLION „s/t”
Again a project, I thought. But actually I don´t care about that, if something great is the output.
