The 69 Eyes - X

2012-10-30 / kantellis / Reads: 15636

I must admit I wasn’t that happy to hear about the album concept and announcements and style. I started preparing myself to be disappointed. Especially since I heard and saw Red, which wasn’t at all what I hoped for after their last album, Back In Blood. Still, I had to...

Ultravox - Brilliant

2012-10-28 / Scather / Reads: 3892

It would be trivial to mention in the first sentence of this review that I’ve been waiting for a very long time for this album to be released. That I had impatiently put the disc into the player and that the first tens seconds of the opening track "Live" already...
