Album:
Number 6: BEAUTIFUL BEAST - "California Suntan"Look at this cover artwork ... can't you feel the heat? Haha ... I'm just kidding. Julian Angel, the German mastermind of 80's Hair Metal, put out a second album with his project "Beautiful Beast" and wants to take us back in the late 80's ... and damn yes, he did it! It's so cool to hear a record and a musician, who dares to sound so old-school nowadays. The production is typical 80's style, the vocals are typical 80's style, the guitar work is typical 80's style, the hooks are typical ... I could go on and on. This guy still lives in 1989 and the whole thing sounds f***ing amazing. The songwriting is great - Julian has the talent to write big arena-anthems and strong power ballads like Bon Jovi, Poison, White Lion, Def Leppard and many others did 25 years ago. This album was my personal summer/holiday-record. Everytime I hear it now it brings back so many great memories of the last summer ... and that is the biggest compliment a musician can get.
Julian, don't let us wait too long for your third Beautiful Beast - record. This one is highly recommended, if you want to brave the cold season!
Song:
Number 6: H.E.A.T. - "Living On The Run"Yesterday you saw this band at positon # 07 in my album ranking - today you can hear the amazing single "Living On The Run" from their current record. Like I said, this is a must-have for AOR and Melodic Rock Fans - this song proves this. Great guitars, beautiful keys and a strong vocal performance here.
Come back tomorrow to see who reached position # 05!
