Front_1

Music was everything for Thomas Riekerk and his brother Robert Riekerk when they grew up in the Netherlands and AOR was Thomas’ first love. Band posters of Bad English, Giant, Toto and Foreigner were all over the walls of their rooms and in every corner there were guitars and amps. Back then music was not available digitally so the record store became their second home, when they were in search of that one album that was only available through import.

The songs are terrific, plenty of hooky riffs and superb solos, catchy choruses and lovely harmony vocals; true '80s American Melodic Hard Rock with AOR touches, punchy but polished & clean.

1370923101_frontTime and again it's amazing that especially Melodic Rock produces those so-called "super-groups". THE SIGN is another addition to the long list of that category, because all members are known from at least one other band: Keyboarder Mark Mangold (TOUCH, AMERICAN TEARS, DRIVE SHE SAID, FLESH & BLOOD, MYSTIC HEALER), guitarist Randy Jackson (ZEBRA), singer Terry Brock (STRANGEWAYS, LE ROUX), bassist Billy Greer (STREETS, KANSAS) and drummer Bobby Rondinelli (RAINBOW, BLACK SABBATH, BLUE OYSTER CULT).

Jane Bogaert - 5th Dimension - FrontJane together with Robert Papst (Dominoe) and Guenther Skitschak (Dominoe) wrote the songs for '5th Dimension' and engaged a couple of guests such as Jeff Scott Soto (W.E.T., Journey, Talisman, Malmsteen), Joe Lynn Turner (Deep Purple, Rainbow, Hughes-Turner Project), John 'Rhino' Edwards (Status Quo), Matt Beck (Rod Stewart) and Charlie Morgan (Elton John) to help her with the realization of the record.

StairwayThe sound is loaded with those magnificent keyboards, uptempo melodic songs and some killer guitar and vocals that remind me so much of other great Swiss bands, KC ROSE and SATROX with elements of Germany's BIG RAT and ROBIN mixed in to intensify the end result......if you are a fan of any of these bands, this one won't miss the mark!!

Hard Rock. Melodic Hard Rock... call it what you want. But this group of friends and its 80's/90's/00's typical rock sound is eager to create their own catchy mix of heavy rock music. Unmistakable rock elements like twin lead guitars, guitar riffs and melodic vocals are blended into that typical Terrafyght sound.
