Loudness - Soldier Of Fortune - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Loudness with InchSoldier of FortuneInch starts off with an excellent album opener with the self-titled track that is riddled with classic heavy metal guitar riffs, solos, and vocal arrangements that gives an overall uplifting vibe that's catchy as hell. Afterwards, InchYou Shook MeInch carries out what InchSoldier of FortuneInch started off with, yet, another classic composition of Heavy Metal. And practically the entire album just does what heavy metal is all meant to be about fun and awesome. With other songs like InchRed Light ShooterInch, InchRunning for CoverInch, InchDemon DiseaseInch, and InchFaces in the FireInch show Loudness at a peak with their new line-up approach into regular a Heavy Metal cliché. Other songs are composed in a ballad-esque form or a mid-tempo form, such as InchDanger of LoveInch or InchDays from HomeInch that has various experimental riffs. Overall, Soldier of Fortune is a classic heavy metal record that has been overlooked and almost forgotten in the history of Heavy Metal. It may take a few listens as a whole to really appreciate the album for what it's worth. This is a must have for any fan of classic Heavy Metal.

This album is a live recording of a very precious musical moment for me. What you hear is exactly as it happened at that special concert. Everything felt right, the great WDR Big Band conducted by Torsten Maass with it's fantastic soloists, the gorgeous arrangements, the special guest soloists I could bring from the Netherlands Peter Tiehuis, Cor Bakker and Theo de Jong, not to mention the enthusiastic audience of the club. A Dutch 'Friendly Takeover' in Cologne! (Fay Claassen) In November 2015 Fay was asked by the management of the WDR Big Band to put together a programme with music from the Netherlands. Fay got carte blanche to choose all the music and have it arranged for her and the WDR Big Band. Although she had never sung in Dutch before, she loved the idea! Fay was very happy that she could ask some of her favorite arrangers from the Netherlands, such as Rob Horsting, Ilja Reijngoud, Joan Reinders and Henk Meutgeert, to arrange the songs, but also Torsten Maass and legendary arranger Michael Abene made their fantastic contributions. This project was recorded live at the InchJazz-Schmiede, Inch Dusseldorf on November 28, 2015.

Vinyl LP pressing. 2020 . Phoebe Bridgers doesn't write love songs as much as songs about the impact love can have on our lives, personalities, and priorities. Punisher, her fourth and second solo album, is concerned with that subject. To say she writes about heartbreak is to undersell her blue wisdom, to say she writes about pain erases all the strange joy her music emanates. Bridgers pulls together a formidable crew of guests, including the Julien Baker, Lucy Dacus, Christian Lee Hutson and Conor Oberst as well as Nathaniel Walcott (of Bright Eyes), Nick Zinner (of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs), Jenny Lee Lindberg (of Warpaint), Blake Mills and Jim Keltner as well as her longtime bandmates Marshall Vore (drums), Harrison Whitford (guitar), Emily Retsas (bass) and Nick White (keys). The album was mixed by Mike Mogis, who also mixed Stranger In The Alps.
