RUSSELL ALLEN & JORN LANDE „The battle”
The power metalheads of MASTERPLAN with their charismatic singer Jorn Lande have not been unkown people for a long time now. Also SYMPHONY X have a high status in the progressive metal area, whose singer Russell Allen pooled together with Lande and they now play a foreign metal style for both.
PHILIP BARDOWELL „In the cut”
After his popular role as singer of the band UNRULY CHILD and as a band member in MAGDALEN, PHILIP BARDOWELL had a job as singer in Peter Criss´ (KISS) band CRISS. BARDWELL´s voice is comparable to the one of Lou Gramm (FOREIGNER) and Mark Fee.
NOCTURNAL RITES „Grand Illusion”
In the year of 2005 the Swedish power metalheads in NOCTURNAL RITES celebrate their 10th anniversary. For the party the two albums In a time of blood and fire (exhausted debut album of 1995) and Tales of mystery and imagination (from the year 1998) were released in a double CD called Lost in time The early years of Nocturnal Rites including interesting bonus tracks for example the acoustic title song In a time of blood and fire, furthermore with the in the year 2000 joined singer Jonny Lindqvist, who substitues their former singer Anders Zackrisson with his powerful voice.
CHINCHILLA „Take no prisoners”
Last year I had the pleasure to see a CHINCHILLA live show. I already new the guys by name, but I have never thought it could be real power metal! Somehow I lost the path to the band and although sometimes I read something about the Swabians in different metal magazines, I didn´t dare to listen to the CD.
HELLOWEEN „Mrs. God (digipack single)”
The German melodic metal basement complex HELLOWEEN around Ex-Pink Cream 69 singer Andi Deris throw out an album to the market that surely will split up the fans into 2 teams. I am talking about the Keeper of the seven keys The legacy.
