Notörious - Marching On (CD)

Apart from typical glam metal sounds and anthem-like hooklines as well as epic guitar solos, surprisingly there's a little bit of black metal vocals on one song ("Marching On") which is actually cool and sounds not out of place, though. But basically: A lot of WIG WAM, POISON and MÖTLEY CRÜE in here. NOTÖRIOUS from Bergen/Norway sets the pace with their sophomore album. The powerful production highlights tracks like "Manimal", "All Night" or "Eternal Fire". And "Ain't No Stoppin'" sees a guest appearance of the mighty Mark Boals (ex-YNGWIE MALMSTEEN). An early highlight of the year! Great album! (MS)
