Well, this is a nice find: released with zero promotion, here’s “Til I’m Dying“, the debut album from Swedish new band PEACEFUL MINDS. The release / band caught our attention as features Within Temptation’s guitarist Stefan Helleblad as guest. In fact, Stefan Helleblad is much more than a guest here.
PEACEFUL MINDS is the band of Helleblad’s uncle, a veteran musician from the Swedish rock scene. He played a big part in Helleblad starting to play guitar back in the Eighties, taught him the first ever guitar riffs when was 8-years old or so.
Now 2024, with all his recording experience and being himself producer and Mixing-Mastering Engineer, Stefan Helleblad not only gave his uncle a hand behind the desk but also playing all the guitar solos in “Til I’m Dying”!
And which is PEACEFUL MINDS musical style? Yes, classic ’80 melodic hard rock driven by slick guitars, sweet keys and smooth clean vocals.
Musicianship is really good and Helleblad’s production obtained a crisp sound, but if you don’t have good songs that’s irrelevant… well, you’ll be surprised by PEACEFUL MINDS “Til I’m Dying”, a collection of stupendous classic melodic rock with that Scandinavian flavor.
