The ninth album of this Swiss melodic hardrock formation and I am curious if there have been some improvements. Their 2015 album ‘Liferider’ was in my opinion an average album\u00a0which I gave 67 points out of 100.\u00a0\u00a0With Steven Mageney the band has\u00a0 a singer with a recognizable style,\u00a0rather\u00a0clean but with\u00a0a rough edge.<\/p>\n

The title track opens with hard pounding drums and steady\u00a0guitar riffing. The mid-tempo track is rather heavy and the\u00a0refrain easy to sing a long with. Next is “Director’s Cut” which is more uptempo. Nice guitar harmonies, raw sounding\u00a0riffs and a good melody\u00a0make this one of my favorites. I hope the band can continue with this\u00a0high quality songs.\u00a0Next is “Suspended”, unfortunately the track has a more cliche refrain and also with “Never A Guarantee” they can’t sustain the high\u00a0level.<\/p>\n

Like on their 2015 album there are\u00a0a few too many average, rather cliche sounding hardrock tracks with soso refrains. “Reaching Out”, “Time and Tide”\u00a0and “Without a Net” are three\u00a0 that don’t make my uric very hot. In between however, the ballad “Home Again” is a nice resting point, but really enthusiastic I become again with “To Freedom and Progress”, a variable track with a strong riff and a nice built up and an eastern sounding intermezzo. Uptempo song “Full Disclosure” is a bonus on the digipak, this also counts for the rather slow and groovy track “Fool’s\u00a0Parade”.<\/p>\n

In general I have to conclude that the riffs sound rather heavy and I think that producer Stefan Kaufmann is certainly responsable\u00a0for that.\u00a0Together with the 2 openers also “Dr.\u00a0Hell No” is one of \u00a0my favorites,\u00a0the riff reminds me sometimes of Ozzy with Zakk Wylde and also Dio slipped through my mind. All in all I\u00a0think this is a good album\u00a0for melodic rock fans that like a rougher edge, a nice groove and refrains to sing a long with. Fans will certainly not be disappointed.<\/p>\n
