TRACKLIST:

Country : Sweden
Release : Roses & Champagne
Year : 1988
Genre : Heavy Metal
File Type : mp3 320
Info:
Plenty of classical tinged shredding from Hansson hower, as evident on the vibrant opener "Romeo & Juliet", the catchy "Forest of Cries", the symphonic rocker "Coming Home", and the Malmsteen inspired "Paradise Smile". For many, the overabundance of ballads here will be a disappointment, which seemed to be what new singer Dahlstrom was most comfortable with. His melodic crooning (not unlike Joey Tempest from Europe actually) floats above tunes like "Down Town Junkie", "Light the Light", and "Where Are Your" alongside some dreamy keys and Hansson's deft acoustic and sizzling neo-classical electric work. Though the songs are all melodic and have plenty of tasty playing, this one overall seems to lack some of the fire that the band's first two releases had.
