LYNX (Ger) – Watcher Of Skies (2021)
There’s has been many rock-related bands named LYNX over the years – and currently a very good one melodic hard rock – but mow we have another one: formed in 2020 this LYNX hails from Germany and are releasing their debut album “Watcher Of Skies“.
There’s a lot to love here: since the intriguing cover artwork design you know this is a ’70s and ’80s inspired album, and indeed LYNX play hard rock / traditional metal with a sound reminiscent of 1978 to 1982, ranging from Scorpions and Praying Mantis to Boston and even some Styx.
And they are darn good recreating the atmosphere of that era, from songwriting and arrangements to the lovely old-school production…
