(8/10) The release of a new Flotsam And Jetsam album is always a good moment in time, at least it is again a good moment. I'm fan of the Phoenix, Arizona based quintet since the very early days. As I wrote in a previous album review, it has been two songs...

(8/10) Nothing's second strike is called "Tired of Tomorrow". The band from Philadelphia released their debut "Guilty of Everything" two years ago and I was already at that time impressed by the quality of their songs, something that raised the expectation...

( 8/10) Fans of melodic hardrock will enjoy the feast of a new Sunstorm album that hits you in spring. Joe Lynn Turner and friends will release the fourth longplayer of this AOR outfit, an album that features eleven melodic rock songs that are done really...

(7/10) Wohoo, this stuff is a real bad-ass tornado. If you want to be blown away already by the first song, then listen to Devil's Gun. I pressed the 'Play'-button in curious expectation of well done hardrock. But what I met was a three minutes speed...

(7/10) The segment of bombastic female fronted metal bands gets tighter and tighter. What started decades ago with The Gathering, Within Temptation and Nightwish inspired many other groups and one of them is Visions Of Atlantis from Austria. Founded in...
