Scandinavia
has been churning out good quality bands for many years and Hellfueled
are another of these bands. Born II Rock is the bands second
release on Black Lodge.
The automatic reaction from the first listen of the album is ... is this
not the new Ozzy album? ... As the vocals of Andy Alkman are
frighteningly similar to that of the Prince of Darkness Ozzy Osbourne
himself. The power wrenching guitars of Jocke Lundgren are quite superb
and very akin to Ozzy's mainman Zack Wilde in their concept.
If you put this all to one side and ignore the similarities in sound to
an Ozzy album, and just enjoy the quality of music on this album for
what it is, then I'm sure you'll agree this is one hell of an album.
The intensity and power in every track is simply quite mind blowing.
From the opening chords of the first track 'Cant Get Enough' the quality
shines through. The album continues in the same vein throughout and
never eases the throttle as it tears down the highway of rock at break
neck speed.
The rawness of every track make this a must buy album if you like it
hard and heavy. Stand out tracks are the anthemic title track 'Born To
Rock', 'Girls Girls' and 'On The Run' with its pounding rhythm section.
This is one monster of an album, enough said!
