FUCKING GREAT! Unfortunately it´s a rare event that a CD simply kicks you out of your socks right away, and that expectations raised by the first track are not getting disappointed until the very last song, a CD with that instant-fave potential to be destined for endless-over-and-over-rotation in your stereo.... To make it short, this is such a CD.
A certain Dan Swanö (Edge Of Sanity, Bloodbath etc), producer of e.g. Opeth, Katatonia or Dark Funeral, fulfils a long time dream to record an album full of his all time favourite cover tracks . Dan Swanö does all vocals and instruments, except lead guitars by Marcus Vanhala, Tino Kallioniemi, Dag Swanö & Morgan Pettersson. Any more to say?
First, the song selection- including Rainbow, U.F.O and Depeche Mode - is brilliant, second, the „Swedish power Metal“ sound guarantees instant-gooseflesh and even tears-of-joy. Bonus to the album is the 1999 three track E.P. (remastered), cover and booklet art by Ivan S. Bragin (Hearse, The Gathering, October Tide). Therefore a MUST for all Power/Old School Metal fans, and a 100% recommendation for all the others, too!
