Spektra - Running Out Of Time - uploaded 2021/08/06 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjCPcRKTN3g

  This is one of those love at first bar tunes. Top quality Melodic Hard Rock with absolutely no fat at all - every note counts. One of those songs you'd happily hear regardless of your mood. I particularly like good tunes that keep the same tempo throughout, because then I'm not having to wait until halfway through to find out if I like the song or not. A soaring melody, an easily digestible tempo, great riffs and power. What's not to like? Very Good. My score 4.5*

Lords Of Black - Before That Time Can Come - uploaded 2021/08/03 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_AOzhbO3sc&lc

  This is a good melodic hard rock tune, but its prevented from being a great tune by rather weak lyrics. It could do with someone who speaks English as a first language doing a complete re-write. (I am available!) The strong vocals and musicianship carry it through to make it an acceptable addition on a rock playlist. My score 3*

NIGHT RANGER - TOMORROW - uploaded 2021/08/06 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBHU9pFEPHg

  This is one of those bands that go about quietly just getting on with the business of being a rock band, selling records and filling concert halls without anybody but the fans really noticing. This is no bad thing as it's the best of both worlds - you're making enough money to keep doing it and you're not getting shot at, literally or metaphorically, and you can go to the local store for a beer without being hounded. Of course it helps if without needing to break much new ground you keep coming up with fine tunes, of which this one. Add it to your playlist. My score 4*
