HEAVENS EDGE – Some Other Place / Some Other Time [Japan Edition +1] *HQ*
HEAVENS EDGE did a very strong comeback this week with a new album in decades. After their terrific debut, the band recorded the pre-production material for the second, but as happened with many melodic hard rock bands at the time, they were dropped by the record label.
These unreleased second album tracks were released at the end of the Nineties under the title “Some Other Place / Some Other Time“. The CD includes one song from the first album sessions, the awesome ‘Rock Steady’ (I scratch my head why they left this track out!) plus new songs showcasing a more mature approach.
While we miss the bombastic polished production of the first album, these are pretty well recorded demos and the hooks, the layered choruses, the riffs and the lovely keys are still here.
This Japanese CD edition includes an extra, bonus track.
Fans of Danger Danger, first Steelheart, Firehouse, etc, need this album in your collection.
