CHARLOTTE “Medusa Groove” is the next proposal of label Eonian Records. The proposal comes from collection of “The World's Premier Hard Rock & Metal Archive Label”. Though the team already does not exist officially that supposedly the members do not cross out the plans of renewed reactivation. The time will show for us how the more far history of this band will go. Anyway the works on present material lasted on breakthrough 1988-2009, and this is large piece of time… and this caused the differences in sound of the individual songs. Despite the whole the musical character of all songs is closed in hard-rock dimension with momentary assaults of Glam Metal …

The music of CHARLOTTE seems to be inspired by the teams from 70-80 years. The clear influences of LED ZEPPELIN, GUNS'N'ROSES, WHITE LION and maybe ALICE COOPER are audible here… that is the music is sharp and full of rock'n'roll, in the moments is rebellious and also is melancholic. The songs are full of the guitars with strong and predatory riffs decorated by the solos with strong work of rhythmical section and obviously with hoarse singing (gliding among hard tone and calm melancholy) sounding on the front supported by backing singers. Those vocal motifs ideally dose emotional tension, which balances among rapacity and nostalgia. Moreover the additions in style of clean guitars, the piano and even the saxophone also appear here and they are more nice for the ears. Generally the music possesses characteristic dark-romantic climate.

Sincerely saying, “Medusa Groove” it is nice material… This is like the journey to the past, to the times when the metalers combed back and varnished their fringes (leaving long dissolved hair) as well as they got dressed the close-fitting trousers to the rest of clothing… In those times simple people laughed for such style, at present the people would qualify this style as next expression of metro-sexuality… But at that times such band’s image was worth while, because there were specific audience in majority created by the crowd hot female fans.
