The British hard-rock legends “UFO” released the twentieth studio album this winter.
Lost hair, some pounds overweight, over forty years in rock and you still alive and kicking? The best prove what you’re doing is absolutely right. The life doesn’t stop while the band spins it round and round.
Rocking is not only for partying hard there is time for chilling hard. Just let me speak some words about calm contest. “Fight Night” simply rocks. “Waving good bye” ballad is what every movie or album must have as happy ending with confetti or summer light rain in addition. Wide and touching melody provides to wave hands and start crying. Two bluesy tracks are “Year of the gun” and “The fear”. The harmonica solo in the last is something. “Burn your house down” is the most tragic track. Dark and evil. “I want to burn your house down ugh-ugh// sit right here and watch you drown”. I can’t keep my mouth shut about great guitar solo. And the last one to mention is “Wonderland” track. For my point of view this track describing the cover art. The macho skeleton in colorful clothes holds a bouquet in his hand. Life is beautiful, the nature is just wonderful. In other words this is peaceful wonderland.
