VOODOO CIRCLE Raised On Rock

Popis:

If you consider the songs on Voodoo Circle’s new album "Raised On Rock" to be an indicator of the current emotional condition
their most important protagonists find themselves in, there seems to be no reason to worry about band founder, guitarist and
main composer Alex Beyrodt in particular. Thanks to Beyrodt’s excellent songwriting – as usual inspired by renowned sources
such as Whitesnake, Rainbow, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix – and his outstanding guitar performance which
brings to mind icons from Ritchie Blackmore through Jimmy Page to John Sykes, this recording oozes pure, unadulterated
fervour. This exuberant energy, however, isn’t the merit of Beyrodt alone but, without doubt, also that of his colleagues Mat
Sinner (bass), Francesco Jovino (drums) and – last but not least – new vocalist Herbie Langhans (Avantasia). With Langhans
as the group’s new frontman, the stylistic direction of the Voodoo Circle compositions hasn’t significantly changed – unlike the
general flair of the material: “I feel that the band sounds even more autonomous, a little less bluesy and much meatier with
Herbie at the mic,” Beyrodt enthuses. “This allowed me to work on ideas which would probably not really have suited his
predecessor David Readman but are absolutely perfect for Herbie’s powerful voice.” Talking of the sound: Raised On Rock
was mixed and mastered by Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, U.D.O.), whose unerring instinct for dynamics and frequencies lends the
recording its modern touch. And another musician contributed significantly to the tight overall impression of Raised On Rock:
the keyboards were manned by Corvin Bahn (Saxon, Uli Jon Roth). So all in all, we can say that the new Voodoo Circle
album truly lives up to its programmatic title. (AFM Records)
