Bowmen – Mission IV

Releasedate:   31-05-2024
Label: Fastball Music

The Rock formation Bowmen has their base in Germany. The band released their third album in 2020 and now returns with album number four with the simple title “Mission IV”.

The guys have an international sound, not too German in their vocals, which is not always the case when we hear they have a German background. But also musically they look at a wide range of audience. All of the songs are easy to listen to and have something catchy to get your attention. The song “Hold Me Now” is also provided as a acoustic version on the album while the original version also makes its impact. A ballad that splits the album nicely.
When the band goes more with their 70s influence you feel them being a bit more mellow but when they have the higher energy tracks played you can see them shine the brightest. Even with these there are plenty of details to focus on as a listener and thus they go being the radio rock experience.

Altogether this album forms a fine release from Bowmen. A diverse collection of songs that will draw a wide range of audience for it has a bit of all in it without losing sight of the identity that showcases the sound of Bowmen.

• Markus Esche – guitar, vocals
