Delivering a cavalcade of hits, Swedish hard rock band STARMEN have been keeping the flame alive for the 70s / 80s classic rock sound during almost a decade now. In their music, melody n’ catchiness takes the front seat, with original songs that are hard to resist, graphically packaged in a retro comic book style with a running theme that oozes superheroes and rock stars.
With 4 albums under their belt, many fans were asking for a ‘best of’, especially rockers from all over the world whom discovered the band recently. “The Best Of Starmen Volume 1” is a perfect introduction for new listeners and a great reminder for loyal ones.
In the same style as their rock heroes from the 70s and 80s, the band goes all the way in terms of image with full make-up and accompanying stage clothes, where each member has their own color. Of course, you can see nods to the bands from these eras in appearance and musical style, but that’s where the similarities end.
STARMEN write their own songs and are not afraid to bring the music of previous decades into the present.
For those of you already familiar with the band and the albums already released, “The Best Of Starmen Volume 1” is just more fun, more sweet rock n’ roll all into one package. For new listeners eager to hear the best STARMEN songs – some have been re-mixed, btw – this Volume 1 works like a great, fresh rockin’ playlist.
STARMEN formula works, and works well. They deliver polished melodic hard rock, full of hooks, harmonised vocals and catchy lyrics. No, Starmen aren’t reinventing the wheel, they know what fans of this genre like and expect, and deliver exactly that.
Highly Recommended
