Search - Khymera :: Greatest Wonder

Fantastic 80s-style Hard Rock album. Made in 2008 by a mode

"In a year when it seems like a lot of 1980s Hard Rock bands are on the comeback trail (Whitesnake, Def Leppard, Dokken, Journey, Tesla, and Great White), Khymera a band who wasn't around during that era, but is heavily influenced by that era, may have put out the best Hard Rock album of 2008 (I write this in August 2008).



There is excellent songwriting, singing, and musicianship. I'd especially say that people who liked bands like Journey, and Survivor, during the 80s, are going to love this one!"

Melodic Rock para el siglo 21!

"Al escuchar un disco como éste, hay que quitarse el sombrero, "The Greatest Wonder" es uno de los mejores discos no solo del 2008, sino de los últimos 5 años, contando con Dennis Ward ("Pink Cream 69"), al bajo y vocales de inmediato salta la calidad que este increible músico le añade a cada uno de sus trabajos. Este es un disco que se escucha de principio a fin, "No tiene desperdicio", todos los temas son destacados, para fans de Journey, Survivor y los actuales "Brother Firetribe", seguro será una grata sorpresa escuchar un album tan completo, que trae el sonido del rock melódico puesto al día, no nos queda mas que dar gracias a Frontiers Records por seguir creyendo en esta música, y permitir su vigencia, la cual de este lado del Atlántico, es cada vez más difícil accesar. Sin pensarlo, ¡a buscar sus 2 anteriores trabajos!"

This album does not deserve anything less than 5 stars!

"Honestly, I can't add much insight to what's already been said. In my opinion, The Greatest Wonder does set the bar for melodic rock albums coming out in 2009! Oddly enough, Dennis Ward sounds similar to Joe Elliot from Def Leppard. That's probably the best comparison that I can think of. As far as the music is concerned, it's well balanced. Meaning, there's enough crunch to not over power the melody and enough keyboards to add depth. This is a very full sounding offering from the band. If you like 80's era Def Leppard, Danger Danger, Bad English or Journey, then you can't go wrong with buying The Greatest Wonder from Khymera."
