Atkins / May Project – Serpent’s Kiss (2011)

ATKINS / MAY PROJECT, featuring Christian guitarist Paul May and former JUDAS PRIEST singer / HOLY RAGE frontman Al Atkins, have released their Serpents Kiss album in the UK. The album will be released in North America, Japan and Europe on November 15th.

According to Defenders Of The Faith author Neil Daniels:

“This CD proves that Good and Evil can, in fact, work together … it is in the form of Christian guitarist Paul May and former Judas Priest singer and Holy Rage heavy metal frontman Al Atkins. This 10 track album is the product of two of the Midlands finest arcitects of rock and metal coming together to create something that is unique and totally exhilarating.

There are enough doses of melody and metal madness to entice fans of the genre and while it’s solid, honest working class heavy metal it has it’s roots in contemporary metal too with some fine axe-work and killer choruses.

Rock enthusiasts may also be keen on the heavy (metal) version of the classic KISS track ‘Cold Gin’, with Al’s throaty nicotine-enhanced vocals adding extra effect and Paul’s stern guitars adding some meat. It sit’s perfectly on this album.

These guy’s are not novices, far from it. Man they’ve been around the block more times than your average metalhead and this album is a culmination of their talents; an (un)holy brew of metal craziness.

Serpents Kiss will grab you from the beginning and wont let you go… you won’t want it to! For some this will represent the best of British heavy metal while for others is a damn good way to spend an hour. It may be a one off CD. There may be more. But with this album they are bound to make an impact on the scene. I’m saying more of the former please!”

Boguslaw Balcerak’s Crylord – Blood of the Prophets (2011)

Crylord: Blood Of The Prophets

Heavy/Power Metal
3.5/5.0

Lion Music
Website MySpace 
by Craig Hartranft,  10.03.2011

With little doubt, Boguslaw Balcerak can play guitar. Crylord is the project and platform for this versatile Polish guitarist who performs in the neo-classical tradition.Blood of the Prophets is his debut on Lion Music (well known for signing major new guitar talent). Besides several of Poland’s finest musicians, Balcerak is supported on lead vocals by three men who are quite familiar with neo-classical inspired heavy metal: Carsten ‘Lizard’ Schulz, Goran Edman, and Marc Boals. Additionally, the album was produced by King Diamond guitarist Andy LaRocque.

Boguslaw BalcerakBalcerak and Crylord deliver solid melodic heavy and power metal driven by his fiery guitar work. Yet any axe slinger can rip up the fret board for a matter of record. But the real question is, can they do this in the context of well written songs? The answer for Balcerak and company is cautious affirmative. Blood of the Prophets, Grave of Love, Valley of the Dead, and Angel of Divine show inspiration beyond a clinic in guitar technique. Warrior’s Moon or Behind the Walls of Sadness, maybe not so much. But Carsten Schulz steals the show on these anyway. However, for pure epic power metal and a double dose of fret angst, When the Time Has Come and The Healing Hands of Destruction offer a reasonable balance between guitar technique and song composition.

(Above right: Boguslaw Balcerak looking much too serious.)

Fundamentally, however, enjoying Boguslaw Balcerak’s Crylord and Blood Of The Prophets likely depends on your interest and/or tolerance for neo-classical guitar technique. There’s plenty of widdling and wiggling across the fret board here, and arpeggios abound. In the end, all this review stands on that opening sentence.

2. Blood of the Prophets (5:58)
3. Grave of Love (4:34)

Monte Pittman – Pain, Love & Destiny (2011)

Posted on December 24, 2011 in Rock by Alex F

Hello all! My name is Monte Pittman and I’m based out of Los Angeles.

I’m an independant artist making my upcoming album (tentatively titled “Pain, Love & Destiny”) on my own. Some of my friends have strongly suggested using Kickstarter as they have been successful with it themselves. Not only will this opportunity of raising money from fans, friends and family help me make this album, but it also lets whoever is giving a donation be a part of this experience.

This album features not only acoustic guitars and vocals, but drums, bass, electric guitars, keyboards (synths, piano, and strings) … and hopefully you.

One of the Incentives is for the person donating to sing as a backing vocalist on the album. One of the songs on the album (or last of 4) features a final chorus of as many people as I can get to sing with me. The idea is kind of like “We don’t need no education” from “Another Brick In The Wall” by Pink Floyd” or “Give Peace A Chance”.

You record your vocals – send them to me – I add you into the track. If you’re out of tune – there are ways of fixing that.

Other Incentives include a private show in your living room. Have some friends over, and we’ll play for you. Also, private guitar lessons both personally and online. Private lessons have to be in the Los Angeles or Southern California area. The online lessons (Skype) will allow all of my incredible fans from all over the world to be included. If anyone has any ideas for incentives, send them my way!

01. About You … (4:05)
02. Lost (3:42)
03. Somewhere in the Middle (3:06)
04. Fortune (3:20)
05. Keep Shining (3:43)
06. The Price of Fear (4:39)
07. Close Your Eyes (4:13)
08. (I Am) The Black Rabbit (6:19)
09. Definitely (3:57)
10. Stay With Me (3:55)
11. Right Back Here Again (5:00)
12. Outside the Box (4:13)
13. Burn Down the Garden (8:14)
14. Predetermined Destiny (6:06)
