RAINLIGHT – Lost In Time (2018) Fixed
Founded three years ago and hailing from Sherbrooke, Québec, Canada, RAINLIGHT are releasing their debut album “Lost In Time”. While the title is referring to classic melodic rock of old – read ’80s – the band is not lost at all; all are seasoned musicians and glue really well.
Drummer Jean-Patrice Leroux wanted to resurrect the melodies from a time when Rock music was about having a good. He meet vocalist Carbo performing classic hard rock songs at various venues, and soon Steeve Poirier (bass player in Necrotic Mutation) joined but to take command of guitars.
The songs in “Lost In Time” are indeed, ’80s oriented both in songwriting and production sound.
Tracks such as ‘Field of Souls’, ‘Howling’ or ‘Time Can’t Wait’ are midpaced melodic rockers with a strong rock&pop base with the typical Canadian feel and atmosphere from the ’80s.
I can’t help, but the main chorus, guitar sound / arrangements on ‘Why so Serious?’ makes me think of HoneyMoon Suite circa 1985, while the haunting ‘Spiders’ some Glass Tiger, but heavier.
