I, on the other hand, might be referred to as an “occasional listener” to the band. The melodic hard rock genre can be a bit hit and miss for me personally and I guess that reflects the wide diversity of music that is branded as such!  Anyway, having now taken several listens to “Albion” since receiving it from Rock n Growl promotions I have to say that there’s definitely plenty there to impress me. The first single from the album “Die For Me” has already been played on the Friday NI Rocks Show.}
