Venice Beach, California (USA) crossover thrashers Beowülf are self-releasing their sixth album on December 23, 2011, entitled Jesus Freak, produced by founding member, vocalist/guitarist Dale Henderson and ex-FEAR FACTORY guitarist, Christian Olde Wolbers. The tracks were cut at LiL’ Antwerp Studioz and Wolbers is credited as the engineer. It’s been a long time since the early breakout of this band during the mid 80?s from the legendary “Venice Scene”. They had their first album produced by ST’s Mike Muir and released via Suicidal Records. Flash forward to now, after several lineup changes, and this reviewer finds that Dale and the boys can still bring it with the best of them. Former ST bassist Louiche Mayorga is even thrown into the mix here, so any fan of the old school, true grit feel of “Taste The Steel” will simply love what they are throwing down today.
Personally, I think Dale Henderson has grown as a performer over the years and continues to push the envelope with his completely unique style of singing and songwriting. While others just go the safe route, this guy has always been daring, somehow managing to keep the Beowülf sound ‘real’ from a street perspective. However, let it be known that Henderson and Beowülf’s music has morphed over time into a much more serious and grown-up statement. The drum work from Rich Rowan here is solid. As always, Henderson’s guitar playing is mean as hell sounding… snarling punk-fast riffs, cutting to the nerve of its listener like a cold metal blade pierced into someone’s throat. My favorite songs are the totally rocking “Mad Man” and the absolutely stellar “Front Door Smoking”. On the latter I dig the way the bass line starts out alone and then Henderson’s guitar comes thundering in. Forget punk rock… that’s just plain metal. All in all, I am just stoked as hell that Beowülf is still going after all this time, and this reviewer seriously hopes everyone gives Jesus Freak a shot, because it’s a clever rocker indeed.

The style of the late 80s – when instrumental guitar rock was at the peak of its popularity – to this day curiously dictates its methods to legions high-tech guitar aspirants all over the world. Seattle born and raised Brian Hunsaker is one such hopeful who on his freshly released CD channels the vibes of the time when the shred gurus of today were still at their tadpole stages. More»

"Wanderer of Time" is the name back to the music scene in the Asturian Eden. After a few days since its release and after the studio report made ??in December, we have to see how it has withstood time and hear this new album of the band.
Ten tracks make this album, which starts with a catchy riffas an introduction to "I feel the time is going" and the albumitself. The first issue we will contact to give us a glimpse of what the band during this round. The first thing we notice is the great sound they have achieved and Manuel RamilAlberto Ardines in Triple A Studios, personally I think it's the best they've got. A sound hard, but heavys clean guitars, aclear role of the voice and keyboards, and batteries thatsounds devastating, but this certainly has some blame alsoIvan Sevillano.

The iconic American songwriter Mark Spiro is back with his sixth solo album "It's A Beautiful Life".
Between AOR circles Spiro is a star, but his name, solo career and songwriting contributions are pretty unknown for major rock audiences, although all of you have already listened at least one of the magical melodies coming from his pen.
For starters, Mark has co-written songs for Bad English, Heart, Winger or REO Speedwagon to name a few. Seven out of eleven songs from Giant's classic 'Last Of The Runaways' (including the immortal 'I'll See You In My Dreams') are penned by Spiro together with the Huff bros.
That said, Spiro is a master in the songwriting department, and an accomplished singer / musician as well.
On his solo albums, and "It's A Beautiful Life" isn't an exception, Spiro's style towards to AOR / Melodic Rock sounds, but also to classic Americana blended with Classic Rock.
The majority of the songs consist of sweet melodies plenty of pulsating acoustic guitar chords and clean instrumentation, with occasional keyboards and some strong electric six-string riffs.
The focus is very clear - and that's indeed the singer / songwriter feeling of - his voice. This voice belongs to you as it comes from a relaxed, smiling mouth - "It's A Beautiful Life" is not just the title, but also the theme of the album.
The CD starts with the title track "It's A Beautiful Life", a smooth, radio friendly melodic rock song with a striking chorus. "I know who I love" has a more contemporary beat combined with acoustic guitars.
"Come Back To Me" is one of the highlights. An outstanding song with a catchy refrain and an infectious melody.
The disc gets more relaxed with the mid-pacer delicate melody of "Love Struck Dumb", an elegant Americana song with tons of class.
Another highlight for me is the "Go Another Mile", an irresistible radio rocker with solid guitars and superb songwriting.
"Dance The Lonely Spotlight" is a West Coast oriented tune driven by a pulsating bass line, adorned with nice keyboards. The sweet harmony vocals are cleverly arranged and performed.
On "Might As Well Be Me" Spiro adds more electric guitars to the mix. It's a good and simple rock song with a catchy chorus. "Dream Big, Pray Hard" has a very commercial feeling ala Bryan Adams, followed by the beautiful pop/rocker "Everything I Do" which features a contagious harmonic cadence.
"It's A Beautiful Life" conjures the best of the classic AOR, West Coast and Adult Contemporary styles into one CD. But not with the typical bombastic & lush sound of the genre, just with Spiro's personal approach.
This is a man with absolutely nothing to prove. He has written and performed everything on this disc, which oozes quality.
All these songs are beautifully crafted, the whole album has a crisp, sharp, clear sound and the guitar work and indeed the likeable vocals from Spiro himself are immaculate.
"It's A Beautiful Life" is another fine piece of music from one of the best rock songwriters ever.
Really Good.

Energetic, powerfull and fresh killer rock with big danish balls of dynamite that explodes in the ear canals, was my first impression and feeling when I listened to BTB's album "Nothing Reamains". They do it with a great dose of attitude and the tight sound is close to knock me out. Martin Larsen on vocals sounds like he is a younger brother of Jesper Binzer in D-A-D.
Easy listening, high tempo and straight forward rock with nice peaks there Niels Hyttel plays some heavy riffs and solos and in my ears does the hard hitting drummer Simon Brøchner make the biggest difference compared to related artists. I've got a hard time to pick any favourite tracks, because they have really put up 10 mega hard songs and the guys should be commended for that.
Every minute of the album is filled with great melodies, nice tempo changes, hard rock guitars and tight wheezy delicious rock vocals. The production is perfect and the sound is pure as spring water with whisky on a Friday night. My mind fills with energy and positive feelings when I listen to "Nothing Remains" and that's the spirit and what it's all about with rock music!
BTB is a band to keep in mind for the metal festival booking staffs across Europe, this is a coming band with both ambitions and talent to be another big danish music export, just like Volbeat, Royal Hunt and D-A-D. Thumbs up!
Bullet Train Blast is: Martin Larsen - Vocals, Niels Hyttel - Lead Guitar, Steff Gunn - Guitar, Morten Olesen - Bass and Simon Brøchner on drums.
