  1. My highlight was In Flames whio did a great performance as usual. Europe did a great gig as well. It was also good to see that Tony Moore from Riot sang his socks off and hit the high notes of Thundersteel. Looking already forward to next year, I can't wait.

  2. I thought this was going to be the disc of the year when I heard the single We run but after hearing the whole cd a couple of times I think it's just average. There are one and two more songs on the album but this type of music have been made so much better many times before.

     

    Yes, Chandler is singing way better than on the Talon album.

     

    Finally, Firewind's last couple of releases thrashes Outland's debut.

  3. I think it is a little patchy. Some really great stuff but a number of fillers along the way as well.

     

    I have had a couple of this disc but have traded or sold all over the years. I only have the Take me back single left. That is the crown jewel of the disc.

  4. Well, cuddle my balls with a welding iron. I haven't been the biggest fan of this, but what the f*ck is wrong with people? Too modern? Not deserving of HH? What a f*cking pathetic joke.

     

    As I've said in other threads, imo the songs are just not that great. The could be, but hooks and good choruses seem to have been purposely avoided. I also don't think it really sounds like a Hardline CD... but all this other bullshit is just nonsense. I haven't seen the comments yet, but I hope it's not that Erik fella flying this flag as I like that chap.

     

    Backed 100 %. I don't think is modern at all. In fact I think it's less modern than their second album.

     

    I think the album is fairly rubbish and is not as good as II, which I think is fairly good. It is especially the production and mix that is lacking and their alot of slow songs. I think they should have changed their name for this release, it's really Hardline anymore.

  5. I went through some of my hardrock magazines today. I found some really nice stuff;

     

    A news letter from Aor heaven in magazine format from 99. There were not many online stores with new great hardrock and AOR at this time. Georg's site was one of the best in my opinion and he was really great to deal with (and still is). It was not an easy ordering form at this time. I only emailed Georg which cd:s I wanted and he debit my credit card and sent me the cd:s with the credit card reciept included. I had sent the card number in two seperate mails earlier.

     

    I also found some Hard Roxx magazines from the nineties. Some really nice articles and reviews.

     

    I get really sentimental when i remember those days when ordering cd:s over the net was a new thing. You could not believe that this would be so huge with Ebay and Gemm etc.

     

    Do you have some good or bad memories of the really early days of ordering cd:s over the net.

  6. Its like Linkin Park, which is not a good thing to sound like!

     

    Utterly rubbish IMO. But comparing this song to Linkin Park is like comparing Brasilian and San Marino football teams. ;)

     

    I might be slaughtered now but I really like Linkin Park. The two first albums is great IMO.

    I agree, I like Linkin Park, but this is someone completely out of their element.

     

    Definitaly, the rap (which I'm no expert of ;)) is absolute rubbish. It sounds very unproffesional. I wonder under which stone he found that lad.

     

    Does anyone knows who the guitarist is?

  7. I hope for:

     

    Washington

    Boston

    Vancouver

    Detroit

     

    in the semis. There are some great swedish players in these teams. Especially in Vancouver and Detroit.

     

    It would be good if Sundin would finally win Stanley Cup. Then he really did the comeback in the right team.

  8. Debut is good, not so much into the follow-up. And don't forget Arabia's '1001 night's either - more in line with the debut.

     

    Many of the great songs of the debut was actually re-recorded for the Arabia album. I think the two bands had almost the same members as well.
