Better than the last, August 14, 2009
This review is from: Fire in the Night (Audio CD)
A big improvement over the the last cd. Better writing, singing, playing, and a lot better production. The cd starts with a barn burner with Hand In Hand. This song belongs in a handbook on how to right songs that sound like Journey. It is very good. Fire In The Night, is another good rocker, with a strong beat to it.
I'll Learn To Live Without You is a nice mid tempo song, that sounds like a leftover from Raised On Radio by Journey (which is not a bad thing). The accustic Just So You Know is probably my favorite song on this cd. Hugo sounds awesome. Hugo as good interaction with his guiatrist on (Don't Wanna) Say Goodbye Tonight, it is good to see a little bit of dueling going on with them. Just To Be With You Tonight, another slow song that Hugo pulls off surprislying well. While Here I Am suffers a little from really a lack of build up from the band. This song could have been through the roof if the band had been kicked a few knotches.
But is not good on this cd, I really dislike the opening vocal on Every Time You Walk Away. Rest of the song just never recovers. It's The Love while a good song also lacks from really strong playing, or a deeper sounding bass. And Hold Me the closing song tries to show some punch, but by the time it delivers, I have already lost intrest in the song.
Over all a strong cd from Hugo.
