Switzerland has all the time delivered prime magnificence hardrockbands up to now, and naturally GOTTHARD have been as soon as absolutely the best act ever to return out of this gorgeous nation. Unfortunately since their singer STEVE LEE tragically died in one of the vital ordinary injuries ever, and regardless of the reality GOTTHARD carried on with a special singer, they didn’t achieve the similar prime degree anymore.
Now there’s a new band known as FIGHTER V whom began in 2019. The band launched their debut the similar 12 months, however the next 5 years noticed them suffering with corona restrictions and line-up adjustments, so now in 2024 the band has a brand new line-up and their second album Middle Of The Younger is launched. Their present line up is composed of Felix Commerell – synthesizer, keyboards, Lucien Egloff – drums, Emmo Acar – vocals, Roman Stalder – bass and Thomy Gunn – guitar, and musically talking it’s obviously 80s AOR/Melodic Rock oriented. Eye To Eye, Middle of The Younger, How Lengthy (excellent, very catchy music), Radio Tokyo, There’s No Restrict and Bringing It Again (pretty catchy hook, with a fab saxsolo) are for instance superb uptempo 80s influenced AOR/Melodic Rockers that feels like a mixture between NESTOR, AVIATOR and early 80s BON JOVI. The band additionally throws in a couple of heavier tunes, equivalent to the speedier uptempo Pace Demon, which is an excessively sturdy music that feels like vintage early GOTTHARD, WHITESNAKE and PRETTY MAIDS, and right here we will listen some actually sturdy vocals of Emmo.
There may be time for a calmer semi-AOR ballad, such because the sensational Miracle Middle, which jogs my memory of the mythical 90s underground releases of RED DAWN and NETWORK. Concluded, it is a extremely really useful CD should you just like the vintage AOR/Melodic Rocksound of the aforementioned acts. FIGHTER V has were given all it takes to change into the successor to the mythical GOTTHARD. toes. STEVE LEE (RIP)
