Man or woman should thoroughly before hearing this unusual album before "ish spectacles" ever - and with the blue and red lenses - otherwise they would miss the huge run-up in 3-D images of the cover overhead "Of Sun And Moon" design. A bit of thinking along the Finns put it ahead of course, for not a hint or tip or a 3-D glasses in this regard is to be found in / on the album. But yes OVERHEAD listeners have always been a bit brighter and wider than the mass of mainstream music consumers. And who would have perhaps been overlooked, despite my assertion that little detail but which must necessarily fall once the glasses before reading any further here. Because all of a sudden it opens up so many (bad) dream landscapes in their sculptural beauty, to be pulling in their immediate visual spell. (Anyone from here really should not read on, who wants to look and we recommend that the "Important PS" at the end of criticism!)

Somewhere between endearing nostalgia and eerily sterile earnestness, the self-titled debut by Swedish quintet Gin Lady offers an accurate, yet somewhat stultified impression from the 70s hard rock template. Hefty grooves, catchy melodies, and authentic-sounding restorations of the early 70s sound are all geared to recreate the golden days of Deep Purple, Uriah Heep, and Blue Oyster Cult. But what’s lacking are the prototypes’ virtuosic chops, galvanizing songwriting and the spirit of discovery. Sincere in their fandom, Gin Lady – however – manage to escape the geek tag through good taste and studious candor which turn them from a curious oddity into a valid feature of the revivalist scene currently booming in their home country.

On the first disc we include 5 rare & unvarnished acoustic recordings, plus a full band bonus track. On disc #2 we have included 20 tracks. These tracks consist of a large amount of newly recorded material completed just this week, as well as alternate mixes of some of the album's original tracks. And in addition we have also included a never released track from somewhere around that period of time. All the material has been re-mastered, and the package will feature copious liner notes, photos and unique packaging!"

Band Asia Info: UK Info: XXX Style: Progressive Rock / AOR Years: 2012 Info: MP3 CBR 320 Kbs Info: 141 MB(+3% ?? ?????.)
It's hard to believe its been 30 years since that iconic first Asia album, and its monster hits. That's the meaning of XXX (as opposed to more lascivious notion), the fifth album from the original members Geoff Downes, Steve Howe, Carl Palmer and John Wetton, and the third since their reunion.
XXX seems more ambitious than its predecessor, Omega a rather mellow album of melodic rock. This album captures more the grandeur and energy of their earlier material, even the first album. Although I'm not sure there's anything as arena shattering as Heat of the Moment. But prog fans will dig tunes like Tomorrow the World and even Bury Me In Willow. Yet these are still, essentially, melodic rock songs. For that simple melodic rock brilliance Al Gatto Nero, the heavier Judas, and masterful No Religion are seminal Asia. That latter song could go in the arena or radio ready category. On that more mild side there's Faithful and Ghost of a Chance, a song with sound close to a mash up between Yes and Floyd.
Asia's XXX is simply classic Asia, doing intriguing melodic rock; maybe older and wiser, but still sharp and sounding good. I wish we could say the same for the latest version of Yes. Very recommended.
Hoping to capitalize on the new era digital media distribution is Sweden rockers Confidence. Casting aside labels and CD releases, Confidence plans to release all their material in a digital format (although I got a CD, thank you very much), basically four to five tunes, twice a year. Hail the new technology. Prelude is their debut, their first toe in the digital stream so to speak.
Private releases can be the most basic and crucial part of Rock music in general. In a self-financed release you clearly witness the work of a band, its struggle and frenzy, the dreams and motives, the naïve yet honest approach and the big ambitions as if the world waits for them. Whatever budget big companies can offer (or once offered, to be more precise) or tour promoters can put forward, it’s the private albums that have the most possibility for an outfit to share its musical scope and the potential fans to build a first draft basis.
