MYRATH Karma (earMUSIC)
They have big songs and even bigger ideas on how to present them live and are not short on confidence in their collective abilities, and rightly so.
‘Karma’ will only serve to further the Myrath cause and is an epic rock record in every sense. ****
Review by Dave Wilson
MEDICINE HEAD heartwork (Talking Elephant)
‘Heartwork’ is an absolute delight. It’s full of deeply wrought song craft, moments of inspired interplay and real creativity, and is an essential roots rock purchase. *****
Review by Pete Feenstra
WALTER TROUT Broken (Provogue)
In sum, ‘Broken’ draws on every facet of the Trout musical oeuvre and he glues everything together with vocal versatility, inspired solos and intuitive band interplay on well crafted songs. Game, set and match. ****
Review by Pete Feenstra
JACK J. HUTCHINSON Battles (indie)
…another jam packed album full of riffs, hard rocking blues and catchy choruses. ****1/2
Review by Jason Ritchie
SOUTH OF SALEM Death Of The Party (Spider Party Records)
Yes, there are a lot of bands occupying the heavy rock space seeking to gain a foothold but ultimately it’s the strength of the songs that win out. SoS have demonstrated with their second album that they understand the need to keep things short and to the point. *****
Review by David Randall
MAGNUM Here Comes The Rain (SPV)
As we have reported for previous albums, Magnum are unlikely to release a duffer and each release merely tops up an enviable back catalogue. And each album, for fans, is a matter of weighing up relativity if not similarity to predecessors. The album does repay repeat listens, always a good sign of solid songwriting and musicianship. ****
