SURPRISE OF FEBRUARY

  THE COMPANY OF SNAKES
"BURST THE BUBBLE"


This band consists mostly of musicians who have formerly played for Whitesnake (Bernie Marsden, Mickey Moody, Neil Murray)-along with John Lingwood, Stefan Berggren and Don Airey (hooray!), and this is their first studio album. It is not surprise that they sound really close to the original Whitesnake sound (although Coverdale's absence is of course evident), but it is a surprise that they sound fresh, vigorous and hit right to the spot! The songs are full of nice harmonies, flooded with melodic solos, a stalbe rythm section and by listening to the album I (after a long time) have the feeling that I want to ride a bike and surge out on the streets looking for cheeks and beer! Hard rocking blues' lovers this is the album you've been looking for a long time (there aren't many in the market anyway)!! I suggest it unconditionally...and hope to meet you all on the highway. Cheers!!
