For beginners: FFFFF-Metal = female fronted Full Force forward-Metal. Full-on-the-bell melodic Hard Rock with a flat-out voice that is never boring, a 980 hp rhythm troupe and melodic Speedriffing in razor sharpness. Who can start something with Battle Beast or Halestrom, can blind access here.
For connoisseurs of the group: What is new? Part (Shout) Choir gain in the Bridges and choruses more melody in the vocal lines, more pepper in the A ****, even if you actually do not suggest to the saustarken previous albums can. Occasionally makes sparingly and effectively employed Keyboard for great cinema. The band sounds hungry and matured at the same time, the hooks are more accurate, the riffs are more to the point, the tunes catchier (and my Anglizismen cruel, I know ...). It's hard to believe there's more of everything on Black Lotus. The only exception is the season, but that did not bother me in the last few albums. Here the less, since the hit density is high, higher than ever before. Unusual: The Jinx starts with small blues edge then hard rock powerful and ends with majestic-powerful accompaniment. Goose Bumps!
One drawback there: In the current top form can not the band as the opening act for whomever recommend ... plays in the form of just about any on the wall. For me, a hot contender for the Hard Rock / Metal Album of the Year.
