Full of massive hooks and rich melodies ANGELS OR KINGS are really pushing for a new AOR revolution. Formed in the 80s and still going (despite no massive successes of their own), this British group took the giant stadium sound and have continued using it unashamedly throughout their career.

Front & Inner1Most of Toto is here with Fee and some writing by Richard Marx. Sure, this LP killed the Tubes group (see my Love Bomb review for the details) but Fee sure put out a gem! The music is very catchy and well performed. It has a very 80s sound, but still beats the pants off of most of today's new releases. Every time I play this CD for someone I am consistently asked who the artist is and where did I get the CD. So get yours too!

Within the tracklist there are two versions of the track “United We Stand”. The first is an orchestral version displaying a Mancini's softer tones; it turned out to be a beautiful ballad with violins in the background, such a sweet aura & melodic Rock ballad.
