Magnum ... a band whose creative highlights took place in the eighties. "On a Storyteller's Night" and "Wings of Heaven" have to mention awesome. After Clarkin, Catley & Co. wanted to force with "Goodnight LA" the commercial success - what went wrong. Then descent, resolution, side projects, reunion, half-baked albums ... but you rose again. And now, the band is well again: "Valley of the Moon King" sounds like a slightly modernized successful synthesis of "Storyteller's Night" and "Wings of Heaven".
Since associations come up with ... "All my Bridges" is finally a worthy successor to "Just like an Arrow" and "Days of No Trust" on board, "Take me to the Edge" rocks like "Reckless One", " Moon King "reminiscent of" Storyteller "," No one knows his name "to" Foolish Heart "," Face in the Crowd "sounds a bit like" Last Dance "...
But it does not matter. Innovations will of Magnum eh no hear. The songs are just great - all of them. And the sound is incredibly good. So five stars.
