Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, CD kiadvány, 2014-es album.
Malice In Wonderland long awaited sophomore album mixed by legendary rock producer John Fryer (Depeche Mode, Nine Inch Nails HIM). One of Norway’s premiere rock bands, MALICE IN WONDERLAND is now ready with their long awaited sophomore album, „The Royal Brigade”! MALICE IN WONDERLAND burst onto the Scandinavian rock scene with their self titled debut album in 2005. Led by hit single “Lucifer’s Town” the band was quickly labelled as one of the most promising underground rock acts and their fan base grew quickly with fan clubs and supporters in every corner of the world.
It’s kinda hard to pigeon-hole this band, which is a good thing, but they are a hard rock band, with some classic rock, My Chemical Romance melodies and goth thrown into the mix. Hell, I can even hear traces of early 80’s pop, such as Kim Wilde in here. But maybe that’s just me. This album might contain the odd filler, but for the most part the songs are all great, but my hick-ups here lies within the production. The production on this album is too thin and to be frank, sometimes it almost sounds like demo. I want a fatter sound, a bigger sound, bigger drums and more attack in the guitar area. Other than that, no complaints from this guy. For everyone who wants something fresh and who likes to listen with an open mind, try this one out. This shows that Norway isn’t all about world-class skiing, burning churches and black metal – nope, Norway can still provide us with a bona-fide rock band. Malice In Wonderland is a band to look out for in the future for sure.
