Powerplay 217 March 2019
INTERVIEWS & FEATURES
Third time lucky for the Todd La Torre fronted Queensryche? ‘The Verdict’ is the best we’ve heard from the band in two decades, but luck has nothing to do with it. This is Queenrsyche back to their world-beating best. The band hate being referred to as prog, but this could be our prog metal album of the year. We thought their last album was something rather special, but you won’t believe your ears when you journey to Narnia on the incredible new album from Cats In Space. Also this month In Flames and Children Of Bodom bring the heavy, Last In Line bring the classic, The Three Tremors bring the metal, Robin Trower and Gary Hoey bring the blues and the returning Rock Goddess ramp up the rock chick cool. Plus we talk to Mike Tramp, Spirits Of Fire, Blood Red Saints, Electric Mary, Tim Bowness, Aaron Buchanan, Darkwater, Statement, and Emerald Sabbath, plus Josh Todd reflects on life as the only surviving member of the original Buckcherry line-up.
