[Review] JADED HEART - Helluva Time (2005)
 Artwork by : Thomas Ewerhard Catalog number : FRCD262 | In 2004, charismatic JADED HEART leader Michael Bormann was fired. The reason why he was fired was a disagreement between him and the rest of the band. In replacement, JADED HEART chose, in 2005, SCUDIERO singer Johan Fahlberg. In same time, guitar player Barish Kepic brought his solo project to make a new JADED HEART album however he offered to Johan the opportunity to write lyrics part. Helluva Time was born. It proved that JADED HEART without Michael Bormann was possible, even if the band has been helped by some guests (Peter Ostros - INSANIA -, Anders Engberg - SEVENTH SIGN, ex-LIONS SHARE -, Erik Martensson - ECLIPSE -, Conny Welen and Tommy Denander) and well-known producer Chris Laussman. It is one of the great effort from JADED HEART, it's a twelve track opus composed of fantastic Melodic Hard-Rock songs like the Anastacia cover Paid My Dues for example, or Tomorrow Comes. |
