Whereas most new rock bands coming out of North America are seeming to be very retro in their approach (like paying homage to Led Zeppelin amongst others), rock bands coming out of Scandinavia have the 80’s as their main focus, where big hair, riffs, and hooks are king.
This is actually the fifth album released by the band back in 2017. This album is a lot more polished and AOR sounding than their usual efforts. It still rocks on tracks like Hunter Of The Heart with its killer funky riff and vibe, and my favourite Kiss Of Judas, but the overall emphasis seems to be more Journey in style. This is a good album with an emphasis on the melodies, but if you want a more hard rockin’ Crazy Lixx, then I suggest their self titled first album or their new one, Street Lethal.
8/10 from The Grooveman.
