专辑简介
Finnish high school kids recording an album of old-school hair metal? The idea sounds awful, but that partially may be the reason Learning To Rock manages to surprise. Sturm und Drang's first album has some bad moments but can be forgiven considering the average age of the kids, and the good moments find the band playing forcefully and not without talent. The single release, "Rising Son", is reminiscent of the glory days of Dio, and anyone misty eyed for some good old-school metal could do a lot worse than trying out this recording. The band recycles old cliches, but does them with enthusiasm. The lyrics are na?ve at worst, but they fill in the spaces between the melodic guitar lines and symphonic keyboards and lead singer,André Linman, delivers them with capable pipes that only occasionally remind you of his youth. Overall, the band manages three or four good songs and, as long as they keep the tempo up and running, the album mostly succeeds in modeling itself after their idols. The one cliché they could have left out is the final power ballad -- the bane of all heavy metal --"Miseria," which sounds like nails on a chalkboard. But the kids are young, talented and still have room to grow, all of which bodes well for their future. The CD's quick chart success has given them a head start, and their touring in Northern Europe is giving them the experience. With any luck, they'll keep up with their homework and manage to graduate with honors (summa cum loud) on their sophomore album. ~ JT Lindroos, All Music Guide
