El Perro Hair Of
El Perro consists of former Radio Moscow members Parker Griggs (vocals, guitar) and Lonnie Blantonr(drums), who are supported by Shawn Davis (bass) and Holland Redd (guitar). Similar to his workrwith Radio Moscow, Parker is heavily influenced by Hendrix as Hair of is infused with constant psychedelic whah-whahs and garnished by bluesy guitar licks. No major differences or highlights in comparison to Moscow's work. Recommendations: "No Harm", "K.Mt.", "The Mould".		3.0

Staind Confessions Of The Fallen
Staind has been a band that I used to like a lot and Break the Cycle was one of my favorie albums back in the day. After some fruitless attempts which I accedentally listened to (The Illusion of Progress and Staind), even Lewis himself gave up. Fast forward to 2023 and 12 years after Lewis' escapade in country music, Staind returns to the nu metal style that made them famous in the very begining. I admit that Confessions of the Fallen caught me by surprise as it has the all the elements that made me like this band in the first place. It has the traditional heaviness in the riffs, the memorable choruses and 		3.5

Nick Johnston Child of Bliss
Child of Bliss is another great instrumental album by virtuoso guitarist Nick Johnston. Following two mediocre albums, he returns with a new escapade, mimicking the wonders of Remarkably Human. Anyone who is familiar with Johnston's work, he knows that he approaches his instrument rather differently from most guitar players and in essence, this is what makes him stand out. Rather than focusing on speedy guitar heroics, he is surfing so eloquently on the shores of progressive rock, blues and jazz in a melodic way with his lush chord progressions creating some memorable lead motifs. Nick plays all the guitar, keyboards and syn		4.0

Staind Dysfunction
Staind's debut album is a mediocre effort that contains lots of chunky nu-metal riffs and Aaron Lewis delivering in an angry tone his depressing lyrics. Recommendations: "Mudshovel", "Home".		2.5

Adema Adema
Adema's debut is a decent nu metal release with huge influences from Korn and Linkin Park. The band delivers some sharp riffs and tries to sound aggressive while at the same time, maintaining a radio friendly sound. The album's best moments are found in the singles and these were the entry points that gave the band a huge radioplay and a place in my winamp playlist back in the day. Recommendations: "The WaY You Like It", "Skin", "Trust".r		2.5

Firewind Stand United
Firewind is one of the few metal bands which has remained true to their beliefs and ideas, throughout their whole career. It's a band that it evolves without pushing the boundaries but always manages to deliver a reliable result. Stand United is no exception as it finds the band firing on all cylinders. Gus showcases once again his riffing prowess while delivering his trademark razorblade riffs, supporting solidly the powerfull rhythms, the fast-paced tempos and Langhans' commanding and powerful vocals. Recommendations: "Destiny is Calling", "Come Undone", "Talking In Your Sleep".		3.5

High Spirits Safe on the Other Side
I recall that the debut album by High Spirits Another Night had a nostalgic feel about it. Twelve years and four albums later, the band remains consistent to its values and the old-school heavy metal/rock spirit it carries. Safe on the Other Side, is a sturdy album with vigorous riffs, catchy choruses and steady rhythms. Recommendations: "One Day Closer", "Lonely Nights", "Loving You".		3.0
