Stephen 'Love Catastrophe' is the follow-up to the eponymous debut of Greek melodic rock outfit, Outloud, and to strengthen the spirit of the opening title 'We Came To Rock', Outloud is really coming back to rock and wreck hard with a set of uplifting tunes, full of ferocious riffs yet accessible, full of massive hooks and memorable lines.

Commercially, this album contains many radio potential hits such as 'Falling Rain' with a brilliant sing-along chorus and the solos are pure magnificent. The other thing is 'Waiting For Your Love', sounded very 80s, a bit similar to the pattern of Swedish rising star, H.E.A.T, which is a good thing for me, the chorus is infectious, and these two tracks are definitely the best here. The title track is also a huge masterpiece, a perfect closer, but plenty of other lovable tracks here so no need to worry about fillers.

If you're into heavier stuffs, 'Live Again' could be a great choice to start. This one rocks hard from the start to the end, and still packed with subtle melodies as well. Ironically, the opening track isn't really that great, in fact, I've heard many folks is disappointed by this album just because they only listen to the first track, but honestly to me, it's pretty awesome, even though you've read my best picks of the album.

There are couples of duds which I think are passable. 'Someday' is the first, a very average ballad, and 'Isolation Game' is the second, nice short solo though. But tracks like 'The Night That Never Ends' or 'Clean Hands' are flowing with energetic, happy vibe, very lively I must say, and totally enjoyable. The production is great and the guitars steal the spotlight. Great stuff and can't wait for the next album!
