PERFECT VIEW – Red Moon Rising +1 (including Toto’s cover)

Another album which deserved more attention when released some time was “Red Moon Rising“, the second effort from Italians PERFECT VIEW leaning more towards Melodic Hard Rock than the AOR flavors of their debut.
On “Red Moon Rising”, Perfect View the band accented the guitar presence and an overall punchy delivery, however, the record opens with “Where The Wind Blows”, a strongly ’80s AOR influenced number full of melody and catchiness, and ends with a cover of Toto’s classic “Home Of The Brave”, another AOR cut very well done, by the way.
But in between, Perfect View shifts gears entirely offering Melodic Rock at times spiced with some polished Hard on tracks like the awesome “By My Side” (featuring background and harmony vocals by guest Michele Luppi), the groovy midtempo “Room 14” (love the vocals here) and The Storm-like “Slave to Empire” filled with excellent harmonies…

PERFECT VIEW – Timeless (2018)

Now signed by Lions Pride Music, Italian melodic rockers PERFECT VIEW will release their third opus titled Timeless on October 29, 2018.
With already two solid albums under their belt, “Timeless” should be their most complete album to date where they have refined the songwriting with more elaborated arrangements, stronger harmonies, and catchier hooks / choruses in the traditional Euro melodic rock / AOR style.
“Timeless” showcases a step further in Perfect View’s career; the band achieved to include the best elements from their first two releases plus an edgier approach, plus incorporating lite progressive touches at the service of the melodic rock pulse, resulting in a more enjoyable, complete piece of work.
