Daylight Robbery – Falling Back To Earth Reviewer: Dan Mann It’s great to finally get to listen to not only new material from Daylight Robbery, but their second album no less.

Mitch Laddie Band – Live In Concert
Mitch Laddie Band – Live In Concert Reviewer: Dan Mann Mitch Laddie & his band return with their third album, this time a ‘live’ affair. Having seen Mitch & the band in concert, it’s great to have a release that reflects not only the exemplary playing by Mitch, but the tightness of the whole band. […]
Review: Lucid Dreams – Lucid Dreams
Review: Lucid Dreams – Lucid Dreams Reviewer: Dan Mann Well, if someone took it upon themselves to record an album that would tick the majority of boxes on my ‘like’ list then this release comes pretty close. What Lucid Dreams have delivered is a solid block of Scandinavian rock. Hailing from Norway, the band formed […]
Review: Jesse Damon – Temptation In The Garden Of Eve
Review: Jesse Damon – Temptation In The Garden Of Eve AOR Heaven (September 27th, 2013) Reviewer: Dan Mann I was waiting for this album with much anticipation so it had a lot to live up too.

Review: King’s Call – Lion’s Den

Thankfully this isn’t the case with this release, having Mike Freeland of Praying Mantis on vocal duties. My first […]

Review: Meridian – Metallurgy Mighty Music (2014) Reviewer: Dan Mann I had the real good fortune of being sent a copy of this as yet unreleased album by my good friend Martin J Anderson, the guitarist with Danish rock band Blindstone. Martin is also involved with Meridian, having played on five of the ten tracks, […]
The Inner Road – Ascension
Occasionally I need an album or bit of music just to sit back, headphones on and chill too. Ascension is such an album. Now don’t get me wrong, this is no mere background noise. Far from it. This is a fine body of work from accomplished musicians who delve deep into the music, bringing out […]
