Top 10 Albums from 2014

2014 is almost over and it's time to summarize the music year. I think it has been a pretty good year for the kind of music I'm interested in. Early in the year we got one of Edguy's best albums ever, we got super-strong "follow ups" from HEAT and The Treatment. Legends like AC/DC and Ace Frehley woke up later in the year and delivered the goods. We also got an amazing sort-of-comeback from Ryan Adams and the year's biggest surprise from Sixx AM. These are the best albums from 2014.

1. Edguy - Space Police: Defenders of the Crown

2. Ryan Adams - Ryan Adams

3. H.E.A.T - Tearing Down The Walls

4. The Treatment - Running With The Dogs

5. Sixx A.M. - Modern Vintage

6. Sabaton - Heroes

7. AC/DC - Rock Or Bust

8. Within Temptation - Hydra

9. Hammerfall - (r)Evolution

10. Ace Frehley - Space Invader

KISS at Hell & Heaven Festival setlist

KISS headlined the Hell & Heaven Festival in Mexico City a couple of days ago. There was a couple of big surprices regarding the setlist. It's probably the most diverse setlist since Hot In The Shade or Revenge tours (not counting the KISS Kruises). They opened with Creatures of the Night, followed by Psycho Circus and War Machine. WTF?! That is awesome, that is the best concert opening in 15 years! And they sound pretty good too. Wish I could have been there. Let's hope they keep Creatures in the setlist in the future.

Creatures of the Night / Psycho Circus

Take a look at this setlist:

Creatures of the Night

Psycho Circus

War Machine

Throwback Thursday - Avantasia videos

How about some Avantasia for Throwback Thursday?!
I was just looking through some of their stuff on Youtube and found some stuff that I had totally forgotten about, like the Klaus Meine track Dying For An Angel. And I have to say Tobias Sammet is one sharp dressed man. So, some pretty cool videos but most of all some damn good music!

Dying For An Angel (feat. Klaus Meine)

Carry Me Over (feat. Eric Singer)

Lost In Space (feat. Eric Singer)

Sleepwalking

The Driftwood Sign

The Driftwood Sign is a melodic rock band from Sweden who recently released a new single and video called "Disorder". The band focuses on riff-heavy rock with a strong melody focus.

After some research I found out that they opened up for Alter Bridge a couple of years ago. Their sound is in the same vein, and the singer actually sounds a bit like Myles Kennedy too as you can hear in the final video below!
