Rocket Ride

Rocket Ride is a work on which EDGUY, while keeping the base of driving power metal, greatly took in the flair and humor of glam/hard rock. Tobias Sammet’s soaring singing, thick guitar and memorable choruses create a bright drive in each song. It is a record with a strong rock ’n’ roll color, on which the band relaxed further. On “Sacrifice,” “Rocket Ride,” “Superheroes” and “Trinidad,” speedy songs and mid-tempo anthems line up naturally, valuing not just technique but the fun that draws the listener in. The grand epic “Land of the Miracle” also gives the album depth. Songs like “Catch of the Century” and “Save Me” breathe the band’s full melodic sense too. Binding EDGUY’s characteristic grandeur to light rock ’n’ roll, it is a full work with a sense of openness.
