But for everyone else ....
Four of these could be summarized as follows – excellent tunes, vocals were very distinctive, but other than a couple of gems, the albums didn’t leave me with much to get overly excited about.
125 / v2 / kirksnosehair / 7 Months / Unspoken Words… vocally, it’s kinda like a sweet blend of Ted Leonard and Roy Khan
124 / v1 / Doc / Wuthering Heights / I Shall Not Yield… Nils has a very distinctive voice – I can see people either loving or hating it. Tim surely hates it. I think Katt loves it… but then again, he loves everything.
123 / v1 / jjrock / Crimson Glory** / Painted Skies… My first exposure to Midnight
122 / v4 / Lowdz / Night Mistress / Until The Day Will Dawn… helluva screamer.
121 / v3 / wolfking / Coldspell / Night Falls… I have no idea why a slow plodder like this appealed to me, but it did, and helped Kade win v3 (iirc, this was in his ‘finals’ group of songs).
