Inner Axis: “Midnight Forces” CD and LP 22nd March 2024 Fastball Music. German Heavy / Power Metal band.
After several years of releasing singles, the band is back with a full-length album. Third opus from this powerful band who knows how to write great tunes to get you to move. A colorful cover artwork reminding the eighties colors. Could be a movie poster, and each song’s title is related to a movie (Cobra, Evil Dead...), at least that is what makes me think of it.
Entertaining and driving force, you get transported from the first song to the other and when the album is finished, you just push play again. A little line-up change, a new guitarist has joined. Inner Axis still has its music style and keeps going. The long wait is forgotten after you listened to this brilliant album. You will probably play the first ones to get your day a full blast.
Speed, heaviness, melodies, you got it all for the pleasure of the ears and the heart. This new album makes you want to headbang and mosh. A band not to miss live! They will move the crowd at big festivals. Heavy Metal as we know it.
Very good album, Mixed and Mastered at Pitchblack Studio, the Artwork is from Jan Yrlund (Manowar, Battle Beast Stratovarius, Testament). A perfect album from a brilliant band.
