В 1987 году Хоканссон, Норелл и Уолберг выпустили Aux Deux Magots, свой последний альбом Secret Service.

Хоканссон станет партнером Норелла с Army of Lovers 'Александром Бардом в так называемом Megatrio, шведском эквиваленте Stock-Aitken-Waterman , известном как Норелл Осон Бард . В 1992 году Хоканссон и его партнеры основали Stockholm Records как совместное предприятие с PolyGram . Они продюсировали таких художников, как Army of Lovers и The Cardigans , среди других.

Interstellaires is the tenth studio album by French singer-songwriter Mylène Farmer. It was released on 6 November 2015 in France by Polydor Records. It is produced by Martin Kierszenbaum and The Avener.

He is one of the personifications of international heavy metal: with his distinctive voice, Udo Dirkschneider has been creating legendary rock anthems since the 80s. Nearly five decades on the world stage have made him an icon.
Despite a long history and the many ups and downs that rock life brings, Udo Dirkschneider continues to rewrite his own history in an amazing way. The same is true this year.
The new album of his band U.D.O. "Touchdown" was released on August 25. And once again, the title speaks for itself. Because just as in American football a "touchdown" means an important goal for players and teams, the same can be said about Udo Dirkschneider.

Touchdown is the eighteenth studio album by German heavy metal band U.D.O., released on August 25, 2023, through Atomic Fire Records. It is the first studio album recorded by U.D.O. to feature Accept bassist Peter Baltes.

U.D.O. has been on a hot streak lately, ever since the early 2000's band ran out of steam with "Rev Raptor" and "Dominator" he reshuffled the deck and got some new players in, it reinvigorated the band. How this man can still churn out such consistantly good Heavy Metal music is a wonder. Hot on the heels of the excellent "Steelfactory" and "We Are One" comes this embarrassment of riches, yes, it runs for more than an hour but after about three listens you realise there is no fat here, every track deserves it's place. There is a strong 80's Accept feel to this album but I enjoy U.D.O. better than the current Accept as it is a lot more fun and his voice sounds fantastic here, as good as it ever was.

По словам Удо Диркшнайдера, объединяющий посыл альбома — показать, что если человечество не изменит свое поведение во многих аспектах, нас ждут непоправимые катастрофические последствия.
Диркшнайдер бьет в самый корень проблем. Если человечество не переосмыслит некоторые аспекты, это может иметь фатальные последствия. Например, сингл "Kids And Guns" рассказывает об увеличении продаж оружия и слабом регулировании оружейной промышленности в США, что также приводит к более высокому уровню насилия с применением оружия среди детей и подростков.

The title track reached No. 31 on the UK singles chart in February 1975. The album's second single, "I Bit off More Than I Could Chew", also reached the charts, peaking at 54 in the UK charts. "Michael" also had limited promotion, being released as a single in some territories, including Australia where the song reached the top 100. The album reached the charts in several territories, reaching the top 50 in Germany, Norway and New Zealand, as well as making an appearance in the US charts, peaking at 146.

Your Mamma Won't Like Me is the third studio album by Suzi Quatro. Released in May 1975 by record label Rak in most countries, in the US the album was released through Arista Records, the label that had recently succeeded Bell Records which distributed Quatro's first two previous releases in that country. The LP marked a change in the hard rock sound from the singer's previous albums Suzi Quatro and Quatro, instead displaying a more funk-oriented rock sound.

Suzi Quatro is the debut solo studio album by the American singer-songwriter and bass guitarist of the same name. The LP was originally released in October 1973, by the record label Rak in most territories. The album was released under Bell Records in the United States and Canada, EMI Records in Japan, and Columbia Records in some European countries. It was titled Can the Can in Australia.

This is now the third release from Serious Black that I have reviewed within the pages of manofmuchmetal.com and it is safe to say that the results have been rather varied. 2017’s ‘Magic’ scored highly, as it delivered a very positive and enjoyable slab of melodic heavy metal. ‘Suite 226’, their 2020 offering didn’t hit the same level in my opinion and was ultimately rather disappointing. Always one to maintain an air of optimism, I refused to just turn my back on the band. Instead, I have checked out their sixth full-length release, ‘Vengeance Is Mine’, and have decided to bring you my thoughts on it subsequently.

В новом альбоме группа отошла от предыдущих историй, связанных с магией и другими потусторонними вещами. ‘Suite 226’ – история душевнобольного, разрывающегося между ужасающей реальностью и своими иллюзиями. В его мире грёз он – живущий в замке король, окружённый прекрасными женщинами. На его столах чудесное вино и роскошная еда, а под его командованием – непобедимая армия. В реальности он заперт в психбольнице, в камере-одиночке номер 226, и врачи проводят бесчеловечные эксперименты над его мозгом. И чем дальше это продолжается, тем больше протагонист скатывается в свой личный ад, с обширной паранойей и приступами паники.

I do enjoy short albums I can have easily in one sitting (you could literally watch a movie in the length of time it takes to spin the new Nightwish, for fuck’s sake), and so this is a nice record to consume on a quick walk. It helps that all the songs are of a high quality, and as this is probably the most Serious Black have leaned on the up-tempo power metal aspects of their sound, I’ve been spinning it a fair bit. Urban Breed sounds much better here than he did on ‘Suite 226’, more like his old Tad Morose self but a bit softer, as fitting for the material, which is generally very melodic, keyboardy power metal that functions as a run through conventions set out by Edguy, Helloween, and Stratovarius, with a tip of the hat towards old Queensryche. After a pointless symphonic intro (didn’t these go out of fashion fifteen years ago?) we launch into ‘As Long As I’m Alive’, a killer double kicker with a great verse and invigorating chorus, straight into one of Serious Black’s best tunes, the mighty ‘Castor Skies’. This one has plenty of harpsichord runs and snappy riffing before hitting the absolutely stellar chorus, probably my favorite moment on the whole disc. ‘Heartbroken Soul’ ends the trio of slick opening cuts, another highlight with a downhearted lyric and some nice melodic play.
