Pedal to the metal, fists in the air, heads down, no nonsense beer drenched hard rock ‘n roll! That’s the short description of Swedish newcomers’ The Hellfire Clan’s debut album. The Hellfire Clan could at times be easily mistaken for sleaze, but don’t be fooled. There are some brutal riffing, closer to Hellfueled or even Zakk Wylde coloured touches, going on. At times I even get a hint of Corabi-era Crüe. I think it’s the combination of the sleaze-oriented vocals and the detuned, crunchy guitars that brings it a bit between the boxes.

X POINT ENEMY – State Of The Art 2011
“The phone rang and on the other side of the handset, it was a band from sölvesborgwho wanted to book two weekends to record an album. Coming from (Sweden Rock Festival’s hometown) and book a total of 40 hours for an album is probably the most daring thing I’ve been through in my life. they ignored my suggestion to book 4 weekends entirely, and we rigged up and ran. Said and done, 40 hours and a couple of beers later, they packed up their stuff in a car and drove home. they havecompletely completely disproved and shown me the other Pro-Tools copy / paste world how you should lira real rock n roll. specifically – Heavyweight Rock n Roll. Rig up and run!the result is amazing good! ”
Gekko Projekt – Electric Forest (2012)
While listening to the debut album recorded by the American progressive rock band Gekko Project, the British band Camel immediately crossed my mind and especially the albums Raindances (1977) and Breathless (1978). On these albums Camel made a mixture of progressive rock with elements of jazz-rock and fusion. The same kind of influences is noticeable on Electric Forest.
Pontus Snibb 3 – Loud Feathers 2012
Pontus Snibb 3 is a new power trio formed by vocalist and guitarist Pontus Snibb of outstanding hard rockers Bonafide. He’s backed up by Backdraft’s rhythm section, Mats Rydstrom (bass) and Niklas Matsson (drums). If you have any knowledge of either Bonafide or Backdraft, you’ll have some inclination to what PS3 has to offer. Loud Feathers offers gritty, old school, hard rock with more than a little touch of blues. Recorded over a mere three days, the songs were cut nearly live with few overdubs. While the production is smooth, you can hear the essential raw energy in the performances. PS3 is helped in the studio by friends Conny Bloom (Electric Boys), Ralf Gyllenhammar (Mustasch), and Mats Ronander on harmonica (he played with ABBA; yeah, you read that right).
