 Cruachan show themselves to be not only tied to the usual, trivial, boring, and banal themes but also become proponents of true pieces of social criticism.

 Malice and melody blend in this beautiful 'Red Hot And Heavy,' the debut album by Pretty Maids.

 No track... is boring or predictable; my favorites are 'Back To Back', the title track, and 'Little Darling', a cover of Thin Lizzy presented in a harder and better version.

Ronnie Atkins delivers versatile vocals, and the album features no weak tracks. Highlights include 'Back To Back' and a hard rock cover of Thin Lizzy’s 'Little Darling.'

 Krokus silence many criticisms: the CD is actually more aggressive than the previous ones; closer to the style of Judas Priest or Saxon.

 'Eat The Rich' is the most similar to the AC/DC style: a catchy riff, chorus that stays in your head all day.
