A tad too clean and polished for my tastes. But, it's good to see Philip Bardowell (ex-Unruly Child) back in action. Unruly Child's debut album is still one of my favorite cds of all time.

I was thinking to open a poll with ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS IN THIS NEW YEAR 2009 but Lennie was first.

 

Well you are an AOR and Melodic Hard Rock lover? then YOU NEED THIS ONE Philip Bardowell is 100% a mix of Lou Gramm/Dann Huff Wow! Bruce Turgon is Great too, every song here have SUPER INTROS i love songs with Great intros, fans of Shadow King and Giant will enjoy this one no doubt.

 

Check here the video of "In Your Wildest Dreams" no their best song but is Great.

 

 

My rating 95/100.

I don't think the hole album is fantastic but it sure has its great moments.

The end of the disc is a real shocker. The last song is great but there are about 4 or 5 songs leading up to it which are just begging to be skipped. Overall, though, this album is not bad. I can tell you now it won't be anywhere near my top 20 or probably even 50 albums at the end of the year, but it's okay. I like that it has some balls, but Bardowel's solo was better, imo. Still, I'll spin it again for more detailed thoughts.

Very solid. 'Desires Of Our Hearts' is a killer tune. 3 or 4 fillers, but 8 strong tunes overall for me.

Indeed, solid release, not at the top imho but cool stuff.

Thanks god, this time Turgeon doesn't sing !!! Bardowell is the man.

Backed - Bardowell sounds very Gramm/JLT in places, giving the disc that sort of Foreigner/Commercial Rainbow kind of feel. This disc is growing on me with each listen. :tumbsup:

do not have this yet, but the samples do not excite me as much as I thought I would be, oh well, if Itunes has it, I will give it a chance!!!

      To tell you the truth, we couldn't agree on a title so I suggested III. It's been three years between every album and this is our third. ; )

      Stormburst - III

      By Stefan · Posted

      New album 'III' out May 19 through Pride & Joy Music. Press release: STORMBURST was formed in July 2014 with the intention to make high quality Melodic Hardrock music without any compromises, whatsoever. No more covers so to speak, just all original song material. Bass player Kent Jansson (Six Feet Under, Keen Hue, Steam) and guitarist Thomas Hansson (Steam, Coastline) started out with singer Lars-Åke ”Plåtis” Nilsson (Keen Hue) and to achieve the special sound they were looking for. Keyboardist Peter Östling (Six Feet Under) was sent a demo and pretty much joined immediately.   In late 2019 original drummer Peter Ytterberg quit for personal reasons and was soon replaced by Mr. Pelle Hindén of Eternal (Of Sweden). Stormburst as a band and unit is all about uncompromisingly doing what you believe in, even if you have a headwind. When the wind blows hard in life sometimes (as it really does), the love of music is still in all conditions strong and sustainable. Stormburst has the ability to reflect this with their own music and lyrics and their style can best be described as a combination of traditional Melodic Hardrock & AOR. The band is based in the heartland of Sweden, Dalarna and all members contribute to the song-writing and arrangement process.   Stormburst have released two albums so far: ”Raised On Rock” (2017, AOR Heaven) and “Highway To Heaven” (2020, AOR Heaven).   Now, “III” is the third album by Stormburst which will be released on May 19th, 2023 via Pride & Joy Music.  All songs were written by Nilsson, Hanson, Jansson, Hinden, and Östling and recorded At Studio Plåtis Vansbro and Studio Bakery Äppelbo between December 2022 and February 2023.
