From punk-brat Layla Milou of yore with their debut THE PINK PARADE has now slipped to “felt endless” three years a tough butterfly that is getting ready with a new image, that is also new production and new label The Rock and Metal to plow scene. The result goes by the name REBORN momentous and to present itself as the Mittzwanzigerin quite grown up, so at least the letter. Even when studying the track list some pretty grown-sounding songs stand out. I would classify times roughly “Porn”, “Murder in High Heels”, “Fuck you”,

This is a really good release from a small town Swedish band. A band that quit just the other day.

I don’t have the details about the breakup so I won’t comment on that. “Punishment Day” on the other hand, has been in my ears a few hours now. It’s a solid album packed with riffing, tight drumming and super-evil vocals. Sound-wise there’s nothing to complain about: the mix is clean but heavy. Style-wise I ended up thinking that this is some kind of Meshuggah turned heavy metal turned death metal. Don’t get too hung up on that simile though.

Preachers, the sophomore release from Austin’s My Jerusalem has the rather dark and sinister theme going on in the background. Founder and singer Jeff Klein (ex-Gutter Twins, The Twilight Singers) describes it as the Post-Modern Southern Gothic Soul album surrounded by beautiful, comforting, darkness. It’s real, not selfish, according to the mad hatter and Klein’s baritone vocals are ever so moody and emotionally black.

So does anybody still remember Anouk from the 90s? The female alternative rock/pop icon whose chart-topping megahit “Nobody’s Wife” was all the rage back in ’97-98? Those that do should namely find remarkable similarity in how Anouk sounded on her debut “Together Alone” and how Danish rockers Stella Blackrose sound on their sophomore album “Death & Forever”. Perhaps not so much instrumentally, given that Stella Blackrose have a distinctly heavier hard rock / alternative rock soundscape in comparison, but there’s just no way of going around how much vocalist Rebecca Lou Armstrong sounds like Anouk during her pissed off days. We’re talking a female singer with an attitude and the kind of far-reaching power in her pipes to front a rock band, which has always been a rare feat for any female vocalist and the reason why there are so few successful female fronted rock bands around.
