Veteran hard rockers ANGELES are one of the most long-lasting indie US rock bands out there. These guys recorded several albums, played countless gigs and shared stages with the greats. All-original rock band Angeles first started playing Hollywood, CA in the early ’80s. Listening to “Time Of Truth” it’s like living between 1984 – 1988 again. Learn More

Die Geschichte der Christlichen US Hard Rock Band ANGELICA geht zurück in das Jahr 1987, als der Kanadische Gitarrist und Songschreiber Dennis Cameron nach ersten Gehversuchen mit den Bands Antix und Masquerade sein eigenes Projekt ins Leben rief. In der Besetzung Andy Lyon, Scott Ernest, Bob Pallen und Dennis Cameron nahm das Quartett unter der Leitung von Ken Tamplin die Songs für das erste Angelica Album auf. Dabei stellte sich bald heraus, das Sänger Andy Lyon nicht ganz die Erwartungen erfüllte und er gegen keinen geringeren als gegen Rob Rock ausgetauscht wurde. Mit Rob Rock an Bord wurde daraus ein Juwel ganz in der Tradition von DRIVER, JOSHUA oder M.A.R.S. Digital remastert. Learn More

The Demo Sessions is the original demo recordings with Andy Lyon, the original lead singer of Angelica. These 9 songs were recorded before Dennis Cameron landed his 5 album record deal with Intense Records. The first 5 Songs (Demo One) were presented to the label. The last 4 (Demo Two) was their second demo that the label requested, giving them enough for a full album. The songs here are in the same order as found on the two original demo cassette tapes. Angelica’s debut album was recorded with the vocals of Rob Rock (Joshua, Impellitteri), however this is the demo contains Andy Lyon, the original lead singer. These 9 songs were recorded before they landed their deal with Frontline records. Learn More

"Walkin in Faith" (1990) is very similar in style to Angelica's debut, although I would say the debut is slightly heavier. Guitar shredder Dennis Cameron's chops are still outstanding. The biggest difference between this album and the debut is that the signature vocals of Rob Rock are absent. Instead Jerome Mazza, who is a competent vocalist with a high pitched smooth voice, takes over vocal duties. The title track is simply one of the best songs the band has ever written and also the remaining tracks saw Angelica heading into a slightly more polished melodic rock sound, somewhere between TNT's "Intuition", Winger and this type of stuff. Digitally remastered re-issue. Learn More

Finest British Melodic Rock in the veins of FM, STRANGEWAYS or even DARE that - if you are into the genre - will make you feel at home instantly. Stylistically, "Go Ask The Moon" is a bit more diverse than the superb 2014 debut "Kings Of Nowhere". Learn More

As the album title states, these are songs pre-production demos of tracks already known but featuring different vocalists, mix, and some of them are unreleased. Curiously, some of these demo versions are better than the ones finally appeared on the different AOR official releases. Learn More

Canadian act ARCANA KINGS mixes up influences from AC/DC to FOO FIGHTERS as well as BIG COUNTRY to THE CLASH spiced with a bagpipe here and there. A cool track like “Friend Of Mine“ or the initially quiet and somehow awkward “Headful Of Devil“ with a good portion of MIDNIGHT OIL. Stadium rock in a different way, but certainly not a mainstream release! They did a really good job on the SLADE cover “Run Away“. Learn More

Die Schweden ART NATION haben zwar schon mehr Line-Up-Wechsel als Scheiben auf dem Buckel, aber nicht nur dank der herausragenden Stimme von Frontmann Alexander Strandell, der einzigen Konstante, sondern auch dank des überdurchschnittlichen Songwritings sind die Schweden mittlerweile zur Speerspitze der Melodic Szene (mindestens) ihres Landes zu zählen. „Blaze The Trail“, „Firefly“ oder das großartige Duett „The Cure“ sowie viele andere Stücke heben „Transition“ aus der breiten Masse empor, trotz eines sehr zeitgemäßen Sounds.

Mostly pretty AOR and never too sophisticated when it gets progressive, “In Pursuit Of Memory“ offers versatile songwriting. Listening to “Flesh And Blood“ or “Supernova“ alone will easily convince you to dive into the world of ATLAS. That’s exactly how contemporary AOR in the vein of W.E.T. should sound like. Guest vocals by Sam Millar (BIGFOOT). ATLAS: Definitely a band to remember! Learn More
