The soft, soothing sound of William Topley's voice has lulled me to a peaceful place many a time, and on his latest record, Sea Fever, Topley's voice continues to do just that. This record finds Topley purveying the same kind of casual blues that his fans have come to expect, but he changes things up a bit, creating more bright tones in some of the songs than he has previously. "High On The Rhythm" is a perfect example of this phenomenon.

Snake Eyes: music has been described as being NWOBHM blended with Speed and Power Metal Although this is a band with its roots in good old fashioned "Metal "they blend a distinct NWOBHM and Power Metal flavour with a style of their own. Halford style vocals, grinding riffs Snake Eyes have created the kind of music that seems to be able to join Metalheads together. Snake Eyes first cd The Journey Begins was recorded in Vancouver Canada, the band toured behind it for a few years.

The clash of the past and present can trigger many things... In the case of Sons of Morpheus, it has caused an energetic detonation. Manuel Bissig (guitar, vocals), Lukas Kurmann (bass) and Simon Gautsch (drums) have found the key to a new era, where the musical freedom of the 60s and 70s, combined with the sounds of today, have enabled something very special. Raw and wild, like the earthshaking sound Hendrix, Led Zeppelin or Black Sabbath let loose back in the day, Sons of Morpheus tear up the strings and beat the drums without giving the impression that time has stood still. The world may have changed but our minds have not. In this manner, Sons of Morpheus summon the ghost of the past and let it thrive in the present. Time is and remains relative.

Louella Deville of PlanetMosh gave the album five out of five stars, describing it as "a stunning tribute to keep Frankie’s music alive." She drew vocal comparisons between Spike and Rod Stewart, saying "if I hadn't known it was Spike I may have thought Rod was collaborating with them." She also noted Spike's duet with Bonnie Tyler, describing her voice as the female equivalent of Spike's. "It’s difficult to tell in places which was Spike singing and which was Bonnie. I doubt even Spike’s own mother could tell them apart!"

It's doubtful that many ardent 80s US Rock fans will find the cassock and cross wearing skeleton meets scarecrow on the front cover of ScareCrowd, by Italian upstarts Lost Reflection, eye catching, especially when you factor in the standard Extreme Metal typeface with which the band name is scrawled. However that's exactly the "enticement" that will cause this band's target audience to simply walk, or browse, on by. In truth, they won't be missing much.
