Do you know anybody who collects old cars? I know. It is a very special hobby. Those people deserve a lot of respect. They spend their time saving old things, which almost nobody needs, but still have a lot of interest for it. What could be the main problem having this hobby? Since the old cars all the time need to be repaired, but it is very difficult to find details, which would fit… STAHLMANN is a very good band, which makes high class music. Moreover, they make it with lot of pleasure and love. And the release of the second album can prove it. But working in genre of NDH, even if they do it brilliant, they will always stay kind of weirdos.

This feeling was there as EISBRECHER appeared. Although it was not really long ago as NDH was a popular trend, but it was already lack of bands, who would dare to play that kind of music. EISBRECHER was like a sip of fresh water. With their debut, STAHLMANN did almost the same thing. But release of an NDH album last year could call not only for satisfaction, but also nostalgia, a smile of remembering old times. It was a wonder, that there is a band, which starting their way in 10s and wants to play music, which was popular 20 years ago and not a trend anymore. In any way it was a very nice album.

The second album of STAHLMANN is great from the first till the last accord, even better than their debut. Guitars are deeper, the sound is richer, melodies are more original, lyrics are more interesting comparing to the first album, and vocals are as great as they were. Listening to this album, listeners loving NDH things would feel nothing but pleasure. The only question stays open: How come a modern band still plays this old kind of music? Where were they when this music was popular? So without any modern support STAHLMANN collects their new old cars from the details which were already used once by somebody else

The second album by Epignosis, Mr. Brown has really made great strides forward all around, (from what was an already impressive debut).

For those unfamiliar, Epignosis plays a melodic, textured and symphonic style of progressive rock. This is the path followed taken again on "Refulgence" and while not unprecedented, it does not need to be. Instead of sprawling, dense epics that test your patience and tolerance of self indulgence, "Refulgence" is a very mellow album, dominated by piano and synth, ripe with acoustic and clean guitar, with some crunchy guitar tones thrown in, harmonious bass and punctuated with soothing vocals. Brown's wife, Tasha, has an increased role on this album and her vocals can be described best as angelic. Wish their natural voices could shine throughout and not occasionally dive into effects, which happens a few times, but that is just the personal preference of this reviewer.

The songs on "Refulgence" have been trimmed down, (or maybe simply broken up) and instead of the 8 minute + songs heard on "Still the Waters" there are more here, all under 6 minutes in length with one exception: the 17 minute self titled track. After an ambient intro piece, said title track begins and is really a microcosm of the album. Everything is here in one song, drifting gently from section to section and has quite a variety within its frame. Also here one will notice the greatly improved drumming, which, (while not a buzz kill on "Still the Waters") was a bit rough at times and lackluster. The physical sound is much improved with this album, as is the actual drumming. On a related note, while not really an issue before, the overall production is also better...and kudos to Brown for developing as a complete musician.
