TOKYO – Seven (2023)

Germans TOKYO released a bunch of enjoyable albums in the 80s mixing Americanized AOR with European melodic rock which over the years became cult LP’s for the genre. Now 2023 after six years since their last CD and always fronted by founder Robby Musenbichler the band is about to release their new opus ”Seven“.
TOKYO 2023 also features a couple of new members, one of them also handling lead vocals on some tracks proving a fresh touch to the new songs.
Several decades passed since the first TOKYO albums, and also for all members’ evolution as players. ”Seven” delivers the typical TOKYO melodies, but as well different musical sources acquired by these musicians all over the years, especially Musenbichler, always unquiet and searching for revitalizing musical grounds.
But don’t worry, “Seven” music & production sound is updated to modern times, yet still melodic, poppy AORish and catchy.

With pretty elaborated songs and a modern sound TOKYO are showing on “Seven” where they are musically now – this is mature lite AOR with a melodic rock feeling trying to avoid common places.
