Phantom 5 (Lessman/Voss/Boebe/Kruse/Buchholz) - s/t

[Geoff]

 

Someday : 7.5 - pretty decent rocker

Wont Come Back : 4.0 - terrible.

 

Also on the subject of singers - he sounds pretty bad in comparison to his glory days.

Agree, but still sounds decent enough for studio.

 

 

He was not really what you'd ever call a supreme vocalist, but I always liked his voice and still thinks it actually holds up pretty well today. All things considered.

Its probably the closest thing we'll get today to glory days Bonfire,still miles from Fireworks/Point Blank but waaaaay better than the tripe that Bonfire have been subjecting us to this last few years

More Bonfire than Bonfire... literally.

Rated it a bit less than that, around 75% but overall not too far off from Andrew

Shame they can't revive the glorious days of Bonfire/Casanova anymore

I don't really rate by track, I just listen and then rate as an album. I think there are a least 4-5 really good songs on here, so I'm enjoying it. Could it be better? of course, but there are a lot of albums that "could be" better. I'm just enjoying hearing Claus' voice again(not that he is a great singer, just a familiar voice).

Yeah. That. I'm enjoying it.

[AlphaMale]

It's not a bad disc. About 76%

[lettard]

There is definitely cool stuff on this. I've spun it quite a bit since the end of last year. Much better than Bonfire had been for a long, long time.

Sample from new album PLAY TO WIN (release date: Oct/2017)

 

[Crazysam]

I'm pleasantly surprised to see them get together and record a 2nd album. The new song sounds pretty good and would fit right in with the debut, which I enjoyed. I would like to see them change up the tempo of the songs a bit more on this follow up though.

[lettard]

Nice surprise to see em release not only a 2nd disc but not too long after the debut track is pretty good also

[The Rocker]

Sounds like Bonfire!!! I like it
