Sure, we had to wait for this quite a bit but the important thing is that it finally happened. Vocalist Michael Kiske and guitarist Kai Hansen, both of Helloween’s Keeper of the Seven Keys fame, joined forces in an actual band! Before this we could occasionally hear the two together on a couple of Kiske’s solo tracks or on Gamma Ray’s and Avantasia’s albums. But Unisonic is the real deal; around 50 minutes of pure rock-metal genius – a treat for everyone who appreciates the talent of these two nice ex-Helloween fellows.

Some might wonder whether Unisonic’s self-titled debut album is metal, which would be a dream come true for most Helloween fans, or perhaps hard rock-AOR that Kiske seemed to have preferred in the recent years, but such genre labels matter not if the material is as good as in this particular case. If anything, the fact that Kiske mostly composes rock songs and Hansen usually stays faithful to metal only adds to the overall value of the album. Unisonic is, therefore, not just a thunderball of great guitar riffs but also sports some beautiful melodies, thoughtful lyrics and, most importantly, enough song-writing variety to keep us redefining the album with each single track.

It starts off in the most anthemic way possible; the title track sweeps the listeners off their feet within seconds with some inspired guitar work and neck-wrecking rhythm, and then totally knocks them out with a powerful chorus. The next several songs – electrifying “Souls Alive,” optimistic “Never Change Me” and relaxed “I’ve Tried” – also mercilessly attack us with their sharp hooks. Even in case of somewhat mellower moments, like near the end of otherwise springy “My Sanctuary,” one can feel there’s some cosmic energy boiling right under the surface, while “King for a Day” marks a return to heavier, Gamma Ray-esque style. In yet another highlight – “Star Rider” – Unisonic successfully try their hand in atmospheric, sci-fi-scented songwriting. They finish off on a more melancholic note with “No One Ever Sees Me,” an emotional track with great lyrics and a beautiful vocal performance by Kiske.

Although Kiske and Hansen are the band’s main stars, there’s this feeling throughout the whole album that Unisonic – with Pink Cream 69’s Kosta Zafiriou on drums and Dennis Ward on bass plus Gotthard’s Mandy Meyer on guitar, is a very homogenous entity and not just a side project of two heavy metal veterans. Anyway, the word “veterans” sounds rather off here, doesn’t it? After all these years Kiske and Hansen sound fresh and energetic as they’ve ever had. Unisonic was never meant to become a clone of Helloween’s early albums and it is anything but that, but it certainly does manage to recapture the youthful vibe of the vocalist and guitarist’s groundbreaking 1980s efforts.

Having picked up a name for themselves over the last few years as a UK band to keep your eye on, Brighton’s FURYON have finally signed to Frontiers Records for the release of their debut full-length album "Gravitas", and what a debut it is.

Combining the swagger of classic British Hard Rock bands, the dynamics of modern metal and a sense of the '90s heaviness, the songs in "Gravitas" are played with heart, no doubt having been finely honed around the clubs that the band have been playing since their formation, and the musicianship is similar to that of a band that have been playing together forever.
Consisting of vocalist Matt Mitchell, guitarists Chris Green and Pat Heath, bass player Alex Bowen and drummer Lee Farmery, Furyon grab the listener from the opening guitar invitations of first track "Disappear Again", and never releases until it is ready to depart when it chooses.
The song epitomises the whole album, infectious, intelligent and unafraid to court the ear with addictive melodies, heavily loaded riffs and a catchiness which is hard to deny submission to.

Following track "Stand Like Stone" immediately shows the diversity of the band's sound and stylings. Its heavy tumbling rhythms and formidable metallic riffs burst through the ear. With a groove that beckons like a loose woman the song fills every pore with well crafted melodies and the impressive vocals of Mitchell.
In two songs he sets the quality of his tones and delivery, something that never drops throughout the album. The guitars and melodies are quite wanton, eager to excite and thrill, which they do with incredible songwriting skills and realisation.

Songs like the excellent "Souvenirs" with its lovely deep crusty bass lines, the mainstream radio feel of "New Way Of Living" offering a glorious and dense hard rock majesty, and the mesmeric "Wasted On You", come and go with wonderful quality and the ability to light up the senses.
The CD actually hits its peak around the mid-way point, with the slinky rocker "Voodoo Me" and one of the album highlights, "Fear Alone", with echoes of soulful nineties looser hard rock.
There is one track that eclipses all though, and that is the magnificent "Desert Suicide", a song which marks that Furyon isn't just another band of the herd. Structured with a mystical and a subdued atmosphere, the guitars slow to reveal themselves. Soon it evolves into a mighty beast of sound, slowly pacing around the ear before its muscular legs start to run with the senses though it never explodes outright. An addictive yet unpredictable track; the height of invention without indulgence, a stirring animal that remains inside long after the album departs.

Most of you must remember the well-regarded British 2000's melodic hard rock band Pride. Vocalist Matt Mitchell and guitar player Chris Green where members of Pride, but part ways to found a more rocking oriented band, and Furyon born.
"Gravitas" is a mighty slab of really well crafted songs infused with traditional hard rock, metal and classic rock influences, all wrapped into a truly unique and contemporary hard hitting sound that will stand the test of time.
You will be  by the creativity and the technically challenging yet infectiously catchy musicianship of Furyon.
Simply, "Gravitas" is one of the most compelling, notable and promising debuts by a British heavy rock band in years, and a great indicator of greater things to come for Furyon.
Highly Recommended.

Now that everyone has seen (and loved) the star-studded Tenacious D comeback video "To Be the Best," it's time to listen to the first single from their new album, the title track for "Rize of the Fenix." The album is set to be released on May 15.

The rock comedy duo's first movie, 2006's "Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny," is now considered a cult classic by many, but it's largely viewed as a bomb -- it made a total of only $8.2 million, even at the height of D frontman Jack Black's box office power. But the band is embracing the theme of resurrection on their new album, and the title track is entirely devoted to earning back the good name of the band, who first earned fame with an HBO series and Dust Brothers-produced rock album.

Owing more than a little to the riff-heavy arena rock stylings of bands like Boston and Styx, and sounding a lot like the mini-suite "City Hall" from their first album, the single "Rize of the Fenix" aims to win back fans. And of course, the only way to do that is to rock even harder than they ever have before.

Review:
I wanted to like this CD, I really did, as everything about it looked promising. The band name for one is great, and the album artwork hinted that something special would be contained within. And there is nothing wrong with being Nashville Pussy copycats, but Wake The Dead is a case of horrible production making an album damn near unlistenable.
As hard as I tried to give the Filthy Cheaters the benefit of the doubt on their independent debut offering, the muddy production values and amateurish songwriting abilities made this a tough one to get all the way through. The drum sound has no depth at all so it's like listening to someone pound away on garbage can lids, meanwhile the guitar work is completely drowned out. Adding to the problems is singer/guitarist Johnny T who sneers his way through each song, 14 of them to be exact, all of which are played with the same reckless abandon and thus become interchangeable.
The only track that differentiates itself from the others is "Women I Don't Know", which could be mistaken for an early American Dog outtake. But it doesn't take long for the Minneapolis, Minnesota natives to get sucked into the same old rut on the following number "Maximum Destruction" -- a rut they doggedly follow until the bitter, and welcome, end.
Caught somewhere between sleaze and punk, the Filthy Cheaters come across as a one trick pony, unable to offer anything other than full-speed ahead rock. Perhaps they are true punks and wanted this DIY sound, but with zero tempo changes this entire disc sounds like it keeps skipping after the first song. I honestly couldn't tell one track from the next, and by the end if the CD I no longer gave a damn. Sorry guys, despite the cool band name and fancy album artwork one key ingredient is missing -- listenable songs!
