_{Six years after the release of their come-back album “Coup de Grace” in 2010, Swedish rockers Treat released the follow up “Ghost of Graceland” through Frontiers Music on 15th April. This is one of those instances when the end product has been worth the wait! Sometimes you just know you’re going to like an album after the briefest skim through the tracks and that is definitely the case with “Ghost of Graceland”. The title track was released as a single and I played this on the Friday NI Rocks Show on 1st April.}

NI ROCKS Recommends "Death Rattle & Roll" by HELLHIKERS

Published: Tuesday, 19 April 2016 00:00 | Written by NI ROCKS | Print | Hits: 4833

_{I’ll be honest and say I’ve listened to “Death Rattle & Roll” by Norwegian band HellHikers quite a lot over the past week or so because I’ve been a bit undecided about it. There are tracks that I really like (which is why I decided to download the promo copy originally) and others that I’m not so sure about. At the end of the day though I decided there was enough that I liked to make it worth a recommendation; and then you can decide for yourself from there! “Death Rattle & Roll” was released via Mighty Music on 15th April.}
