Info:

Shakra replaced both of their axe grinders within the last year or so, and newbies Thom Blunier and Thomas Muster definitely don’t disappoint. Their scale climbing and shreds are like manna for fans of the style. And of course Fox has his own definition of shred, if vocals can be described as shreddy. His voice is the perfect blend of raw and screaming vocals to fit with the nearly over-the-top compositions.
Perhaps some of the tunes sound a bit dated and simplistic, but truthfully that’s part of the charm of 80's fashioned hard rock. Repetitive lyrics and vocals-driven songs are what made music of that decade popular even to this day, and Shakra's songs are no different. The opener, "Ashes To Ashes," is an upbeat, old school, gang vocals tune reminiscent of some of the best glam tunes in history. Shakra even shows off a bit of a stadium rock anthem in "Love and Pain," and an incredible, timeless ballad that is ideal for fans of monster ballads with piano in "Hopeless." Those who loved ballads like "Home Sweet Home" and "Don’t Know What You Got" are sure to also fall in love with "Hopeless."
