Firebrand Super Rock - Firebrand Super Rock
[Metal Hammer Germany]

Schottlands jungster Geheimtipp mixt auf seinem Debut munter Einflusse aus dem klassischen Rock, Metal-Riffs, doomige Passagen und eingangige Melodien.

Xerosun - Absence Of Light
[Metal Hammer]

There's something remarkably fresh and vibrant about Xerosun's sound, which veers from the pounding disco throb menace of the opening Cut Me Down through to the goth tinged bombast of Heartfalls, never failing to deliver a big hook along the way.

The Morning After - Legacy
[Ringmaster]

The Morning After have created a masterpiece for classic/melodic rock fans that will have them drooling, and for the rest of us they have given one of the more agreeable and intriguing albums this year.

Es fehlen allerdings die non plus ultra-Hooks, die das Ganze auch anbetungswurdig machen lieben. Auch verhaspelt sich die Band in etwas zu langgezogenen Tracks, die nicht immer die Spannung halten konnen.

Definitely recommended for fans of bands like Black Sabbath, Black Label Society, (early) Machine Head, Pantera, Grand Magus and co. to check this band out.

Thumping drums, loads of dirty reverb guitar and Laura Donelly's chest bursting vocals conspire to produce 10 tracks of pure headbanging bliss with little room for posing.

Xerosun - Absence Of Light
[Time For Metal]

Im weiteren Verlauf des Albums werden die Songs immer harter, jedoch auch eintoniger, da des Ofteren Schlagzeug und Gitarren herhalten müssen, um auf Songlangen von uber drei Minuten zu kommen. Für den einen ein willkommenes Feuerwerk harter Instrumentaleinlagen, für den anderen aber wohl eher uberflussig. Bevor das Album endet, kann die Band mit Heartfalls noch einmal ordentlich auftrumpfen und sorgt für ein gescheites Ende der CD.

The Morning After - Legacy
[Big Cheese]

'Stream Of Stars' is a roof-raising anthemic song full of guitar grandieur and uplifting harmonised vocals of epic proportions, clocking in at 10 and a half minutes. Dragonforce-style dual guitar work still threads through this anthemic collection of songs that have a pop-infused mentality but 'Legacy' has a slightly more honed sense of musicianship behind it, with an unbounded sense of musical freedom.

The Morning Afte - Legacy
[Metal.De]

Abwarten, in welche Richtung sich THE MORNING AFTER entwickeln werden, ein Anfang in eine hoffnungsvolle Karriere sollte mit "Legacy" gelegt sein, denn fur eines ist mit diesem Album definitiv gesorgt: Unterhaltung. Genau darum ging es immerzu und wird es auch in Zukunft im Rock-Business gehen!

From The Depth - Back To Life
[Ringmaster]

From The Depth may not be the most flavoursome sound in theory to these ears but with Back To Life they have produced an album that enthuses and thrills even the hardest of rock hearts with magnetic power rock sounds.

Firebrand Super Rock - Firebrand Super Rock
[Ringmaster]

For all lovers of classic/heavy metal this is a must check out and though Firebrand Super Rock have yet to truly find their own sound their obvious craft and imagination shows that it will not be long before the band become distinctly unique and their name on most lips.

Xerosun - Absence Of Light
[Metal Ship]

Xerosun s'approprie ses influences pour en sortir quelque chose de frais ("All for Nothing")... Il ne manque plus qu'a confirmer tout ce potentiel sur scene!

Kaideka - False Idols And Pyrite Thrones
[Ringmaster]

The album will not make your top ten of the year but it will certainly bring definite pleasure from a band in KaiDekA that is still emerging to find its own unique sound.

Kaideka - False Idols And Pyrite Thrones
[Kerrang]

False Idols And Pyrite Thrones is a flawlessly executed yet out of time barnstormer that the Cornwall five piece can be proud of, even if it does owe huge debts to it's obvious influences.

Xerosun - Absence Of Light
[Kerrang]

Indeed, with tracks as hookily brilliant as opener Cut Me Down its difficult not to look past this debut to bigger prospects looming promisingly on the horizon but for now, this'll do just fine. KKK
