Magnum - Escape From The Shadow Garden (2014)

 

The 17th album from this band from Great Britain.

The band was a quintet with a lineup of drums, bass, guitars, keyboards and vocals.

The band returned again with this one hour long album two years after the release of their previous album.

The band continued on with their blend of pomp rock and AOR here.

The music is rocking more as in classic rock on this album than on the previous three albums. We are not talking in particular hard rock here.. but the music is still rocking.

There are some good hooks and riffs here. The vocals is as per usual very good.

The ambience here is a band who are really enjoying themselves and who knows what they are good at and what their core fans want to hear.

The result is a pretty good album and one to check out if pomp rock and hard AOR is your thing.
