CD review LUNATIC SOUL "Walking on a flashlight beam"

DVD review ALICE COOPER "Raise the dead - Live from Wacken"

(8/10) I will not go too deep into the music and the setlist, since I talked about this already in the CD review from a few days ago. The DVD though contains the same songs as the CD. This means that you get the full package with this release. The show...

CD review LORDI "Scare force one"

(5/10) A new album from the winners of the European Song Contest. This says it all. "Scare force one" is the title of their new disc and it lives up to all Lordi trademarks. And this is exactly where the album has its weak point. There is no doubt that...
