Artist: Guild Of Ages 
   Title: Citadel

And about time to! It has taken these guys ages to come up with the classic album that everyone said they had in them.

They have been through line up changes and even a name change to get there (they used to be called Caught in the Act) but at long last they have delivered.

As soon as the opening chords to first track Wicked Games kick in you know this album is a bit special and the quality melodic rock continues through Losing My Religion and into the excellent From Now On.

Stand out track has to be How Many Times, this is Bon Jovi how they used to be and vocalist Danny Martinez really gives the vocal chords an airing here. With guitarist Anthony Trujillo laying down those big fat chords to give each track that full and rich sound and the emphasis on melody being very high altogether make this a thoroughly enjoyable experience.
