HELLFUELED "Born II Rock" /CD/

Fourth full-length album by Swedish Heavy Metal band.
"Emission Of Sins" espouses the same rock solid production of its predecessors, and the band gleams in each lead, and pounds relentless with every concrete rhythm. Hellfueled are in a pretty unique niche within the Swedish Metal scene, perhaps even Metal at large! With a sound that is equal parts Stoner Metal, Alice in Chains-like melodic Grunge, and Ozzy Osbourne, you'd think they might come across as passé, but instead they explode speakers through their sheer intensity!! Andy Alkman is still wailing away with a wild Ozzy Osbourne, though he centers on a lower range than the Ozzman's Sabbath days. Maybe Ozzy himself could officially name him as replacement. The vocals are a large part of what makes Hellfueled, but the riffs of Jocke Lundgren are larger. Lundgren keeps it real interesting, and his riffs are ever a pleasure, fully able to transport you between dirty bar fighting rock 'n' roll and glorious segues of fantasy that lift you to higher planes. It's a jarring contrast at times, but he is certainly one of the more interesting Swedish guitar players in years. Lonn and Svensson are as solid a rhythm section as you will find, their playing is infectious and allows the twin starlets of Alkman and Lundgren to shine. They swerve, they crash and they groove, burning along with the heat of a hundred suns and the assurance that the listener will NOT be bored, ever, while listening to this band!!

Third full-length album by Swedish Heavy Metal band.
With their two previous studio releases, Swedish based heavy rock outfit more than filled the void that Ozzy Osbourne left behind with his own lack of solo, with a sound that recalled the classic partnership of Ozzy Osbourne and guitarist Zakk Wylde circa 1988 through to 1992. Returning with their third full-length effort “Memories In Black”, Hellfueled have once again partnered up with producer Fredrik Nordstrom (who also produced their first two efforts at his own Studio Fredman) to ensure that the winning formula of the past stays intact, but not without making some slight changes to their sound in the process. On this album Hellfueled have experimented a little with their arrangements and tempos to reveal a little more of themselves beyond the obvious Ozzy Osbourne comparisons, all the while remaining true to the sound that was featured on their first two releases. In summary, “Memories In Black” is a solid rocking release, and well worth checking out!
