Οι Fargo δεν είναι παρά η πρώιμη μορφή του Γερμανικού hard rock συγκροτήματος Victory. Δημιουργήθηκαν το 1973, μετονομάσθηκαν (σε Victory) to 1984 και -προσφάτως- επανήλθαν. Ο πέμπτος δίσκος της μπάντας (και πρώτος μετά την επανένωση) τιτλοφορείται "Constellation" κι αναμένεται τον Μάιο...

Δελτίο τύπου: «The twelve classic rock songs and their contemporary, wonderfully laid-back sound (producer: Helge Engelke), Peter Ladwig’s pleasantly relaxed voice, the accentuated guitar style of Arndt Schulz, whose DNA unmistakably features blues rock elements, and the dynamic drum style of Nikolas Fritz, who makes up the popular "wall" together with bassist Knorn - Fargo mark 2018 deliver their rock music as confidently as if there had never been that long break. You only have to listen to songs such as the casually grooving "Don‘t Talk", the West Coast atmosphere on "Cross To Bear" or "Loser`s Blues", which brings to mind the best of ZZ Top, to immediately recognise that typical Fargo signature.»

Ο νέος δίσκος των Praying Mantis είναι προ των πυλών. Ο διάδοχος του album "Legacy" (Αύγουστος 2015) και ενδέκατος full length δίσκος των Βρετανών rockers τιτλοφορείται "Gravity" κι αναμένεται στις αρχές Μαΐου. Ακούμε το ομότιτλο τραγούδι...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Praying Mantis are pleased to announce their 11th studio album, "Gravity"! After the positively warm reception to the band's last studio album, 'Legacy' (2015), the new album sees the band returning with an inspired, take-no-prisoners set! "Gravity" sees the band keep the same line-up featured on the successful album "Legacy", featuring Jaycee Cuijpers and Hans in’t Zandt (vocals and drums respectively), who have truly provided a new dimension to the writing process and musical performances.

Together with founding members Tino and Chris Troy and guitarist Andy Burgess, they have been instrumental not only in the writing of the new songs, but in providing a new vision in terms of the sound engineering and production. One of the most influential and famous artists in the rock field, Rodney Matthews (Magnum, Diamond Head, Allen/Lande) has been commissioned to do the artwork for the album in the same style and stunning quality that so many fans loved on the original Mantis albums like "Time Tells No Lies", "Predator In Disguise" and "Legacy".

Praying Mantis are a well-established band of melodic hard rockers. They were formed by brothers Tino and Chris Troy in 1973 and together with bands like Iron Maiden, Def Leppard, Saxon and others they spearheaded the NWOBHM (New Wave Of British Heavy Metal) movement. While they did not see the same dizzying heights of success as some of their contemporaries, Praying Mantis nonetheless became one of THE most influential bands of the NWOBHM. The band has remained active over the years and still record and plays live regularly.»
