PURE MASTERPIECE!After 3 years of long wait,finally the new album of 2 of the most amazing rock vocalists RUSSEL ALLEN and the mighty Norwegian king JORN LANDE is here!The expectations were really big,and to be honest,I was a little skeptical that this 3-rd shot will be a little dissapointing!I WAS SO WRONG!I can tell that THE SHOWDOWN is THE BEST ALLEN LANDE cd so far!Why?Because everything is close to perfection and the quality of the compositions is so amazing,giving to this album the definition of a classic already!The melodic aspect of the album is really sensational and MAGNUS KARLSSON did it again!And all is made with class and majesty!He is absolutelly thrilling in his solos and all the copmositions are wonderful!Each song is a pure masterpiece and it's difficult to pick the highlights of the album,because,I repeat,all tracks are true jewels!Never again is,maybee,the most sensitive song performed by the guys ,a true splendor!Both vocalists are burning with passion in performing with top professionalism and belief some brilliant composition!I can say,thet from the point of view of the musical direction,this album is really 100 % orientated to composition and melodic sense!KARLSSON has the magic formula to mix the melody with power metal and the final result is astonishing!Definitelly a masterpiece and the melodic power metal album of the year,another triumph for FRONTIERS RECORDS undoubtedly!500 stars if possible!
