J.S.M

For me it's WigWam. It was my favourite band for some years and I was really sad when I read they are breaking up. All the new projects of the members are ok but only together they were able to create magic. Few months ago I read, they reunite and I thought, there'll be new music soon but the singer said, it's only for some festivals and not meant as a full time band. I really hope they enjoy the time they spend together🤘🏽

I’ve never read such a positive review that is all criticism. That type of review takes the fun out of listening to music. 

I listened to the album everyday since and it definitely grows. The reason I was so negative was that Aeromantic wasn't as easy listening as Sometimes the world ain't enough, which was our soundtrack of our sommer holiday. This one is more complicated, more progressive and more melancholic which makes it less fitting for vacation and I was a little sad about it. Though I think some choruses on the album are a bit of a let down, because they are sometimes breaking the flow of the songs.

Anyway, This boy's last summer, Curves and Golden Swansdown are 10/10 for me and there are a lot close songs.

There are some brilliant parts but also there are some parts I don't like and I'm not used to that by NFO. 

1. Servants: Sounds like their last album opener but I can't remember any melodies, chorus totally destroys it for me.

2. Divinyls: I don't like the synths being so close to the vocal melody, otherwise it's fine.

3. If tonight is our only chance: Great intro and verses but I can't stand the chorus. There's no flow... I don't like the drums imitating the "if tonight is our only chance" sentence.

4. This boy's last summer: Great song, only the main riff is almost the same as in "paralyzed" on their last album.

5. Curves: My favourite yet, a little like Domino but not a copy, good chorus.

6. Transmissions: This song has magic, even though I don't like the high frequency synths in the chorus.

7. Aeromantic: Starts great but the chorus is too modern for the rest of the song and it breaks the flow somehow.

8. Golden Swansdown: Could be a perfect song for me but the chord sequence when the second half of the chorus starts ("covered") feels wrong.

9. Taurus: The songs that are written by Forslund are usually my favourites. I like it too but I can't understand why the end this song that early.

10. Carmencita Seven: Again it's the chorus that destroys it for me. I just don't get pleased by that. I don't feel like driving on a highway in the night and sing along, it's too progressive for me.

11. Sister Mercurial: Trademark NFO drum beat, maybe a little too much, it doesn't work in the calm verses. Chorus is cool, overall one of my favourites.

12. Dead of Winter: Written by Forslund, I am bought. I like this track. It's the first NFO album closer I like.

8/12 songs are good, 4/12 are really not my cup of tea. So I think the album is good but not as great as the last two albums.

This album has even more energy than I expected, that's great. 

Rock Your Body, Adrenaline, Noting To Say are not my cup of tea. Mostly because of lame choruses (the Adrenaline chorus feels like I have heard it somewhere before) or repititions or both.

Victory, We are gods, Heaven must have won an angel are great, though they all are a little repetitive.

I like all of the singles, so 7 out of 11 makes a good album, maybe 7,5 cause Under the gun is somewhere in between.

I guess Tearing down the walls is still my favourite when it comes to the songwriting but the sound isn't as perfect as on this new album. 

After listening to samples I was a little disappointed but now as I heard the full songs I'm pretty much convinced again.

Unmasked is my favourite Kiss album, I love the poppier vibe, tomorrow and what makes the world go round are so much fun to listen to. It's an underrated album.

Weak chorus, somehow a boring song for me. Last album was great, this is not as good in my opinion 

This song is a masterpiece. The only thing I don't like are the high frequencies of the synths in the chorus playing the vocal melody.

I'm curious about one thing. Are there backing vocals in the chorus or are there only the synths? I can't make that out. It's not important anyway, I just wanna know what it is.

I loved their last albums but the title seems horribly cheesy. 

Lordi is my all time favourite band so I was really looking forward to this album. Zombimbo is such a highlight cause it's recorded fully analog. It's a 70's popsong with a catchy chorus and a bass solo. 

For the other songs, Lordi tend to have a good chorus or a good verse but almost never both.

Horror for Hire, Apollyon, Up to no good, Scream Demon have great verses but weak choruses.

I dug a hole in the yard for you, Cutterfly have great choruses but bad verses.

This album is very diverse and a lot of unexpected things are happening and die hard lordi fands will notice some throwbacks to older albums. 

I wrote and recorded an 80's inspired AOR/ Melodic Hard Rock song called "Best out of the worst". I played and sang everything myself but the thing is I am not a guitar player and you can definitely hear that. It's more of a demo...

I'm singing in a cover band and we're reworking this song at the moment to play it live in the future.

WIG WAM and they reunite in 2020! I'm so looking forward to this. Every member has something very special but they need each other to make it perfect. Ammunition is ok but it sounds like just another Erik Martensson band and it lacks powerful guitars and backing choirs. 

Holter was ok, too. I love his guitar sound but he needs Age to make his songs sound unique. 

Together they wrote some of the best stadium glam rock hymns ever.

Judged by the samples "The death of me" seems to be the best song on the album already. Maybe the production is a little bit dark for my taste and in the intro of the death of me I have a problem with the hi-hat sound because it sounds choppy somehow, like they cut the sound after a second. 

Still I'm looking forward to the full songs.

Great! Thanks

If you wanna hear great choruses I can only recommend the album "Lights out on the playground" by Baton Rouge.

Some other great choruses:

Pink Cream 69 - Signs of Danger (Anything from the album "One size fits all")

Lordi - Beast Loose in Paradise, Where's your dragon (Almost all songs have a great chorus)

Avantasia- The Wicked Symphony

Dynazty - Let me dream forever

Harem Scarem - Gravity

Alice Cooper - Love's a loaded gun

Ok, thanks for your time I love this website

It'll be released on 31th of january.

It depends on the label it's on. I only post samples from record labels and/or bands that give me permission to do so.

Yes, ok so you don't know yet if they will allow it and how early? It's from AFM records.

Hi, 

I just wanted to know if you will add samples of the new Lordi album in the future, cause for their last albums you have always been the only website, where it was possible to listen to snippets before it was released so could preorder limited editions. Would be cool if that would work again.

Thanks
