Jaded Heart – Duisburg, DE / Stockholm, SE

Links:

Genre: Hard Rock/Metal

Jaded Heart are a real double edged sword, being part German and Part Swedish, the two most very impressive combinations of powerful and melodic colliding together on this amazing album sound dramatic and are a superbly well–oiled machine.

The tenacious bristling of electric riffs infect the ears and produce a feisty harmony of gripping nostalgia, and quite a throwback to the grand 80’s era, when Hard rock and metal were just in their infant stages.

The vocal attack is gnarly and the rhythm section offers a seductive embrace of commanding awesomeness, with ultimately intriguing imagination of melodic harmonies that go a long way to ravage and coax with uplifting endeavour.

Intrusive, extremely catchy with every note fuelled for aggression it tips the scales for being gripping and exciting. Enslaving the hearts of all who listens. The production of the album is unwavering and polished like some well-presented mascot.

Delving into the past and presenting it to the present day Jaded Heart have scooped the prize and perfected the intensity, with infectious bait and thumping precision.

Each track holds something for everyone, and all of it catchy and ravenous, striking with keen absorbing creativity, going to prove that German/Swedish really works as it is inspirational on every level.

Bass hooks, savage riffs, caustic vocals and thunderous drumming are all part of the big plan and a memorable infusion of excitement from start to finish.

It doesn’t let up either but gathering its strength from injecting more flavoursome rhythms and breeding magical resourcefulness into its well-crafted passages that are deep and ravishing.
Adding in further rouse to the tracks are some emotive passages that sweep a ferocious heart that seems far from jaded, like on ‘Rescue Me’ which is not only powerful but urgent and involved with a biting rhythm that pleases from the off.

“Faultless!”

This album just creates emotion and goes on an all-stirring cavalcade, captivating and reinforcing its stance, it is bountiful and perpetually increases the listening experience, involving atmospherics and an infectious flow of metal that languishes through its strong veins.

The hardest part for me now is as this album finishes there is a great deal to enjoy and immerse the senses in. As each track plays out, it is a case of ‘was this my favourite?’ but the dilemma is that every track has its own character so it isn’t that easy to choose. With 14 tracks the decision is a lot harder too, as the contagious riffs rain down with formidable exposure.

10/10
