About Me

New band name: SLAVES TO FASHION
For the latest news and music, please visit:
www.myspace.com/slavestofashion
An exciting mix between modern grooves and the classic sound of bands like Queensrÿche and Dream Theater, while leaning more towards a traditional AOR/pop approach when it comes to the vocals.
The debut album "Crossing Over" was released in 2007.
“Their songs are solid and varied, the musicianship, arrangements, mixing and mastering are all top notch, and perhaps most importantly: The melodies prevail!” (9/10)
- Geir Aamo, Rock of Norway
“This album is nothing less than a sensation.“ (10/10)
- Frank Jäger, Metal Express Radio
“The song material is very strong, the atmosphere surrounding the album gives me goose bumps and at last but not least; most of the instrumental work and arrangements have been tastefully put together.” (9/10)
- Even Knudsen, The Streets
“An epic album that mixes melodic hard rock with progressive rock in a stunning way.” (5,5/6)
- Chris Lambert, Rock Report
"En plate du absolutt bør sjekke ut." (5/6)
- Jan Dahle, Scream Magazine
