Maverick - Silver Tongue +1 (CD)

MAVERICK from Northern Ireland is a band you gotta love. On album number five and for the first time in years, the original line-up around the Balfour brothers Ryan Sebastian (g) und David (v) rocks through the twelve versatile but constantly melodic tracks. They do so in an energy-driven, authentic way full of power and emotion. The five-piece delivers dry rockers like "Sweet Surrender" or "Bloody Mary" as well as ballads like "Lorelei". Another winner is "We All Die Young" from the "Rockstar" movie. MAVERICK easily bridges the gap between classic rock, melodic hard rock and AOR (with a harder twist). A real band, real music - That's the way! (MS)
