No,
this is not a new album from this young Swedish band, but merely an
appetizer for their upcoming album called: "Astralism", with
one new song: "Raiders of the The
rest of the songs are "Easy Rider", a previously unreleased
track and not of their best efforts, but with a very strong lead section.
The European fans finally get a chance to listen to the songs previously
only released as bonus tracks on the Japanese versions - "Far
Beyond the Astral Doors", "Another Day in Hell" and
"Moonstruck Woman (Remixed version)" - all three of them fits
the bill perfectly, 80's inspired heavy metal with an excellent vocalist,
good choruses and leads... why they've been kept from us European fans
is beyond me! To
complete this good value for your money EP, we are served the video clip
for one of the best Astral Doors songs ever: "Time to Rock" -
a cool clip that nicely combines footage shot live on stage and behind
the scenes on tour. This is a nice little appetizer for the forthcoming
album and absolutely worth picking up while we wait... Recommended tracks:
