The debut album of Lugnet, the Swedish band, has this ease in each of the eight tracks. Lugnet is Roger Solander (v) Marcus Holten (g), Danne Jansson (g), Lennart Zethzon (b) and Fredrik Jansson(d). The five guys get support on the record by Bruno Erminero who added the warm hammond sound to each of the tasty tracks. The five piece plays classic rock that is deeply rooted in the late seventies and early eighties. I would compare their sound with Rainbow during the "Long Live Rock & Roll" days. And even though Blackmore, Dio and Co. played in another league I was impressed by "Lugnet", the debut of the Tungelsta based band. The first thing that stands out is the voice of singer Solander. This man sounds like a mixture of Dio, Coverdale and Tony Martin. The way he interprets Lugnet's tunes is impressive. It makes fun to listen to this guy.

Rage Of Angels is the brainchild of original Ten keyboard player Ged Rylands, who is accompanied by vocalist David Reed Watson and former Ten guitarist Neil Fraser, although the album is literally littered with guest solos and vocal performances, including Robert Hart (ex-Bad Company), Matti Alfonzetti (ex-Jagged Edge), Ralf Scheepers (Primal Fear) and guitar wizard Vinny Burns (ex-Ten / Asia). It’s no surprise that melodic rock journeyman Rylands has put together a fascinating slab of hard, sweeping rock resulting in ten well polished numbers that exude class from back to front; there’s something here for everyone who calls themselves a hard rock fan.

Дебютный альбом американской команды, которая распространяла христианские идеи в мире тяжелой музыки. Группы записывала свои песни в самом конце 80-х, выпустила один диск и благополучно канули в небытие. Работа очень качественная и для дебюта довольно зрелая. Пластинка выделяется из массы подобных групп классными ударными и более жестким звучанием.
