CD REVIEW: KEE OF HEARTS by Kee Of Hearts




KEE OF HEARTS by Kee Of Hearts
(Frontier Records)

'The highly anticipated debut release by Kee Of Hearts is an excellent example of melodic rock at it's finest. The band is built around two true melodic rock superstars: Tommy Heart, singer of Fair Warning and Kee Marcello, former Europe guitarist. With a line-up rounded out by Ken Sandin (ex-Alien) on bass and Italian drummer Marco Di Salvia (Pino Scotto). Usually most melodic rock bands nowadays think they're better then everyone else and deliver a dreadful performance but not Kee Of Hearts. This band of talented musicians deliver the goods as showcased on this album. Serving up a stunning 11 tracks made of great songs, massive production, strong vocals and musicianship making for a memorable listening experience.  Almost impossible to pick given the high standard of songwriting, performing and production but current favorites are, The Storm", "Crimson Dawn", "Stranded",  "Edge Of Paradise" and "Learn To Live Again". Tommy Heart's vocals sound better then ever and Kee Marcello's guitar work is on point. Reminding of his playing on Europe's 'Out Of This World". Does Kee Of Hearts with this debut try to  bring something new to the table? Not really. But there is something to be said for excellent production, tight performances, great songwriting and vocals. The album is strong and cohesive. It's impossible to think any melodic rock fan wouldn't enjoy this album.
 Highly Recommended
