MAD INVASION (Alien / Bad Habit members) – Edge Of The World (2021)
And finally it’s here ”Edge Of The World”, the long awaited debut from Swedish super-group MAD INVASION. And we say ‘super’ because this album marks the comeback, after many years, of superb singer Pete Sandberg who’s voice has graced unforgettable albums with Alien, Midnight Sun, Madison and more.
Add talented Hal Marabel (Bad Habit) on guitar and keyboards, Mats Jeppsson (Raise Cain) on bass and Mats Bergentz (Silver Mountain, Syron Vanes) on drums, and you have seasoned, experienced musicians here. Oh, as extra, legendary Mikkey Dee (Motörhead, Scorpions) play drums on 3 songs.
And then there’s the quality, varied songwriting. Ranging from groovy traditional hard rockers (‘Edge Of The World’, ‘Scream ‘n Shout’) to commercial melodic rockers (‘Crazy & Wild’, ‘Until the End’), and even ’80s Scandi AOR (‘Trial By Fire’, we love this!), there’s something for everyone here.
