CD REVIEW: WINTERSLEEP by Big City




WINTERSLEEP by Big City
(Mayhem Music)

The debut release, 'Wintersleep', from Norwegian melodic heavy rock band, Big City is one of the most addicting albums I've heard in quite some time. The band is comprised of, Jan Le Brandt - Vocals (Memoria Avenue, Northquake), Daniel Olaisen - Guitars(Scariot, Blood Red Throne, ex-Satyricon), Frank Ørland - Guitars (ex-Scariot), Miguel Pereira - Bass (Withem) and Frank Nordeng Røe - Drums (Withem, Maraton). The production is solid and the musical performances are intense. This really is a very high energy rock album that will stimulate your senses. Every detail of the music is simply amazing! Highlights include the awesome chorus hook of the energetic opener "Midnight Train", the massive power of "Innocence Of A Kill", the quality chorus hit of "Fire And Stone", the rock groove of "The Last Step" and the addictive vocal melodies of "Iseline" and the album closer, "Will You Be Gone". Despite the fact that this album doesn't bring anything new to melodic rock genre, it is still a high quality album that is essential for fans of the genre. Overall, If you're into melodic hard rock with progress overtones this is the perfect album to experience.Tony @ The Dedicated Rocker Society
