_{Shylock – Walking Tall}

The new album by German band Shylock is released in January 2013 by AOR Heaven and was sent to us by MEPR. The band have been around since 1998 releasing several albums over the years, most recently “RockBuster” in 2010. This is straight up no-nonsense rock music with no airs or graces. If you like catchy rock tunes this album is for you! With 13 tracks lasting over 50 minutes you’ll not be disappointed.

^{Some of my favourites include the infectious “Rock DNA”  as well as “Bridges”, “What It Takes” and “She Came Along My Way”.}

_{Singer Matthias Schenk and guitarist Johannes Amrhein are the driving force behind the band and have been working together for many years.}

_{About "NI Rocks Recommends"}

_{I'm not a reviewer but wanted to acknowledge some of the great music being submitted to Rock Radio NI by artists, promoters and labels both within and outside of N Ireland. That was the idea behind “NI Rocks Recommends”. I'm not giving marks or ratings, trying to categorise bands or compare artists. To be honest I’m not really a big fan of most reviews as they’re simply one person’s opinion!! Therefore “NI Rocks Recommends” is just my personal recommendation. Let's just say that if I've went to the bother of writing this, I think it's worth taking a listen to and you’ll be hearing it played on my shows on Rock Radio NI!!}
