METALREVIEWS

From the first minute to the last one, it is an invitation to sing under your shower, to forget all your problems, to place it in your car and turn the volume level at the maximum position.

HM RESOURCE

Seems to be some good talent coming out of Switzerland these days. I remember the day that Krokus was king and then came Gotthard. How about another solid band in Crystal Ball. 'Hard Impact' is the bands sophmore effort. personality. Songs are very good as is musicianship. This album really packs a punch and is one of the better releases this year.
If you are looking for something new that really rocks with great songs, this is a very good bet. I was not very familiar with the band, but found it to be one of my favorite releases of the year. The album is available through importers and is definitely worth checking out. Lots of bang for the buck.

ERUPTION

Soundwise the band have headed in a heavier direction with a new more powerful sound that should take the group into the premier league of melodic rock.
