Menchen & Redeemer reviews

Hello,

I just updated Angelic Warlord to include a review of the new Menchen CD, "In The Light". Following is the link: http://www.angelicwarlord.com/reviews/m/menchen11.html

Also, I revised and updated the Redeemer review that I added last week (it turns out that I did not have all the details correct as they pertain to the albums background and would like to thank the artist for bringing this to my attention). Following is the link to the updated review: http://www.angelicwarlord.com/reviews/r/redeemer11.html

Also, I am REALLY looking forward to the new The Seventh Power album. This weekend I listened to "Dominion & Power" and it sounded as good as ever!

Thanks,

Andy

Cool, off to check out the Menchen review.

Yep, love to read your reviews, Andy. Thanks again.

"In The Light" is more of a hybrid Rev Seven / Menchen album, as those songs were written when Ken Redding joined Rev Seven for a spell. So, given that, In The Light and Red Rock aren't exactly comparable.

There are a couple of teaser videos on facebook.com/bill.menchen.

OK- here is my two cents: Since "In The Light" was released under the Menchen moniker, comparison cannot help but be made with "Red Rock"- for better or for worse and from fans and critics alike.

The fact is that 10 of the "In The Light" songs can be directly attributed to Rev Seven. Hence, perhaps it would make better sense for the project to go under the Rev Seven heading as opposed to Menchen.

Still, even if the Rev Seven name was used instead it still would not change the tone of my review: And that is it is a very good album with some great songs- so enjoy it for what it is, whether you consider it a "hybrid Rev Seven / Menchen" album or simply a Menchen album.

Personally, I am looking ahead to the soon to be released new CD from The Seventh Power.

Did you listen to the teasers on Bill's Facebook?
