“…when we started we were just kids hanging out in the basement and just playing music for fun. Of course it’s still for fun, that hasn’t changed but I guess I’m 31 now, was 21 when we started and a lot of things have happened. I think we just became better song writers and better at playing music, we were […]

“…it’s kind of an overload of everything as we’ve always tried to make our music over the top and really fast and got all of this guitar stuff going on and these big layers in the chorus of choirs and all the crap like that.” From Bio: It’s astonishing to realise that DragonForce now have a history going back 15 […]

I’ve probably played this album through six or so times so far trying to do this review, and in a way I’m glad it’s taken this long because this album is what we like to call in the business a ‘grower.’  Eclipse is Journey’s first album in three years and their second with vocalist Arnel Pineda, whose vocals are just […]
