│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ GUS G. is a great guitarist well known for his ║ │
│║ work with OZZY OSBOURNE. He is considered to be ║ │
│║ one of the best guitar players in the entire ║ │
│║ metal scene today, and for a good reason. Not ║ │
│║ many know him for his other projects, such as ║ │
│║ FIREWIND (he'd given most of his time to), and ║ │
│║ also his work in MYSTIC PROPHECY, DREAM EVIL and ║ │
│║ NIGHTRAGE. "Brand New Revolution" is his second ║ │
│║ solo album, following his debut album released ║ │
│║ last year û "I Am Fire". In this album, such as ║ │
│║ in the former one; he is accompanied by the ║ │
│║ bassist Marty O Brien, who played for LITA FORD, ║ │
│║ and his FIREWIND bandmate, Johan Nunez, as ║ │
│║ drummer. Also joined are many great singers of ║ │
│║ all kinds, all there to help GUS G. create his ║ │
│║ very own masterpiece. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The album begins with an instrumental piece ║ │
│║ called "The Quest" that takes you in this ║ │
│║ amazing album with no mercy on the way. This ║ │
│║ song is a bit strange to hear without any ║ │
│║ lyrics, but all the great guitar solos sure do ║ │
│║ compensate for the lack. In the second song, ║ │
│║ "Brand New Revolution", the singer Jacob Bunton ║ │
│║ of ADLER is joined and gives this music the ║ │
│║ feeling of a lighter rock band, unlike the very ║ │
│║ Heavy-Metaled wellà everything else. Bunton ║ │
│║ sticks around for the 3rd, 4th, 6th and 8th ║ │
│║ tracks, and his work with GUSs' music is ║ │
│║ magnificent, even though it's not very natural ║ │
│║ together. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ In the 5th track, "What Lies Below", the singer ║ │
│║ is Elize Ryd of AMARANTHE joins with her heart- ║ │
│║ tarring female vocals. Her voice is way more ║ │
│║ Gothic and it really is amazing to hear the ║ │
│║ combination between her cute yet very deep ║ │
│║ vocals to his outstanding guitars. This union ║ │
│║ works wonderfully with some electronic ║ │
│║ influences in this song. "Behind Those Eyes" is ║ │
│║ definitely the sad song of the album and even ║ │
│║ though being fast and furies, the first guitar ║ │
│║ solo is very moving. The second one is, by far, ║ │
│║ one of the most touching guitar solos I've had ║ │
│║ the chance to listen to. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ Jeff Scott Soto of TALISMAN is joined in the ║ │
│║ next song, "Gone To Stay", and sadly I have to ║ │
│║ say I didn't like that choice of song for him. ║ │
│║ His deep, heavy voice would be much more ║ │
│║ appropriate to almost any other song in this ║ │
│║ album except for this one which is more of a ║ │
│║ Hard Rock one. The return of Bunton to the ║ │
│║ following song, "One More Try", that also has ║ │
│║ the vibe of an American Rock ballad, is of ║ │
│║ course blessed. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The album takes an incredible twist in "Come ║ │
│║ Hell Or High Water" while welcoming the pitchy ║ │
│║ voice of Mates Leven, former singer of YANGWIE ║ │
│║ MALMSTEEN. The guitars supported his amazing ║ │
│║ vocals, giving this song the feeling of a great ║ │
│║ old-school Power metal song. The return of SOTO ║ │
│║ for "Generation G" is much more suitable, the ║ │
│║ vocals and music are finally combined perfectly. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ All throughout this album the drums and bass did ║ │
│║ an amazing work supporting mainly the guitars, ║ │
│║ and also their interaction with all the great ║ │
│║ vocalists. The drums were doing what they were ║ │
│║ expected to, but every now and then there was a ║ │
│║ twist or a change of paste that gave the entire ║ │
│║ music more interest and layers. The lyrics of ║ │
│║ this album are great and very suitable for the ║ │
│║ genre, and the composing work done here is ║ │
│║ almost perfect. I must say, this was one of the ║ │
│║ best albums I've ever had the chance to listen ║ │
│║ to. ║ │
