KING COMPANY – Trapped (2021)
Finnish rockers KING COMPANY will release their 3rd album “Trapped” via AOR Heaven, a recording featuring new singer Ilkka Keskitalo. The band was formed in 2014 by drummer Mirka ”Leka” Rantanenb to fulfill his longtime dream of a melodic hard rock band with good friends and musicians. All come from pretty extreme metal sub-genres, but KING COMPANY is all about melodies and catchiness pretty much in the WHITESNAKE side of things.
For “Trapped”, KING COMPANY is now a full-Finnish band (there was an Italian singer previously) and let me tell you the new guy in the block Ilkka Keskitalo can sing for sure.
The melodic “Stephanie“ and “Fair Winds“ offer remarkable hit potential, while title track “Trapped In Heart“ on the other hand is quite faster, rockin’ with classic Hammond runs. And the last song “Stars Will Lead The Way“ will please the fans of true rock ballads…
