After 'Beast In Black' with their new album 'From Hell with Love' (see here), it's the turn of 'Battle Beast' to release a new studio recording 'No More Hollywood Endings'. On one side, you have a singer with a particular tessitura, 'Yannis Papadopoulos' ('Beast In Black') and on the other the singer 'Noora Louhimo' who has nothing to envy to the figures of prow of the female singers of metal, but in any case, we will not be able to remove this common point : the two Finnish formations have the talent to offer us melodic compositions which attract you from the first listening with a keyboards on the same level than guitar riffs. As for 'Battle Beast', with 'No More Hollywood Endings', it's a series of hits that go by one after the other: 'Unbroken' opens the ball with a first energetic title with a heady chorus, then 'No More Hollywood Endings' and 'Eden' are two melodic jewels that give you a great form. The sequel does not weaken with the very eighties 'Unfairy Tales', then 'Endless Summer' also brings us a few decades back with a 'Tina Turner' side, and, we can say that until then, all the titles could be singles but the second half of the album continues in this way with 'Piece of Me' and 'I Wish', the first title demonstrating the talent of Noora in a powerful and furious song and the second, a power ballad that also confirms that she also knows how to soften her voice to make beautiful pass emotions. Note that this is the version with 2 bonuses that is available in Spotify with a 2nd ballad 'Bent and Broken' and My Last Dream 'which are at the same level as the rest. In short, even if the Finns of 'Battle Beast' do not revolutionize the metal, 'No More Hollywood Endings' is filled with little melodic jewels that are to be enjoyed without moderation and should appeal to all those who love a melodic metal and accessible...
