The guitarist of 'Gotthard', 'Léo Léoni', continues with his side project 'CoreLeoni' to release albums and, after 'III' released in 2022 in which the new Albanian singer 'Eugènt Bushpepa' was inducted, here is a live recorded during the 'Rock Generation Tour 22' and, the less we can say is that it's moving with an uninterrupted series of very muscular hard rock blasts that will knock your head off with so much headbanging. You just have to listen to the first compositions to be convinced because, after a calm introduction on the theme of 'The Godfather', it starts with a supercharged 'Higher', 'Eugènt Bushpepa' showing that he has nothing to envy to 'Ronnie Romero', then we are amazed again with 'Standing In The Light' (see the video above) and 'Downtown' drives the point home before offering us a 'Fist In Your Face' with a heavy rhythm of hell, and if you don't want to move your whole body at the start of a huge concert, it's because you're not made for this style of music. For the others who are already close to asphixia from moving, the rest continues at the same pace and the short 'All I Care For' and 'Angel' allows you to catch your breath (slightly) to start again on an end of the set with a majority of titles from 'Gotthard' ('Mountain Mama', 'Sister Moon'), 'All We Are' and 'Here Come The Heart') . In short, as a famous advertisement for the Swiss chocolate bar said (it's perhaps no coincidence that they are of this nationality!!), this 'Alive' "is dynamite"... | |
