From FB:

 

"Wake the Nations” serve international hard rock with respect for the 80’s. The album “Sign of Heart” is full of featuring artists from all over the globe. Killer songs are saturated with today’s pure sound and professional musicians behind their instruments - a setup that makes this record the coolest and the most diverse melodic hard rock album in years!

International flavour is compiled by Estef Martinez’s strong female performance, Dado Topić’s deep and unique vocals, bunch of Finnish front-row heavy metal singers (e.g. Taage Laiho, Janne Hurme, Nils Nordling), as well as Alan Jackson’s and Oz Rivera’s unconventional lyrics, some to mention. As an example, Dado Topić is widely known and followed not only in his home country, but also in other parts of Europe (partly because of the Eurovision contest representation back in 2007). Dado won “The best rock singer and song writer during the past 40 years in Croatia “ -award in 2006.

"Sign of Heart" album kicks ass with 10 diverse tracks from traditional hard rock of the 80’s all the way to more modern, yet melodic, rock ambience of 21’st century. The lyrical journey gets you through the storms of love and misunderstandings to which most of us can easily identify with.

Hmm, not bad,, makes me think of Whitesnake..

[Geoff]

Nice song. I kinda like the awkward chubby girl with nice cans too.

[All Nights Reserved]

Everything is bad here except the song itself which is good indeed (okay, the blondie is good too).

Well, for me, the second "Fairytale Romance" is much better sounding to my ears. I really enjoy the much fuller sound of this track and the melody is captivating. I would love to hear more from this band.
