Métal Intégral - Review / HANSEL

A little closer to heaven!

Approximate translation of the review

After the first EP very promising (Mission To Rock 2008), we're back young Australian friends of HANSEL with a first album, Never Say Die !

The group took some risks in not taking over three of four titles ... Only EPof Murder 101 was taken, leaving the stage of unreleased Mission To Rock, Shot Down For Love and Wildcat. What strikes

with this new CD is the professional side of HANSEL, which gives us a superb glossy booklet, very good production and eleven tracks really successful in terms of rigor and coherence.
The group officiates in a record MOTLEY CRUE, Bon JOVI, HELIX, KEEL or GUNS & ROSES and Hard US other glories of muscular and melodic at the end of 80’s.

If the first title (I Don’t Need Saying All I Need Is Rock’n’Roll) is not the best, luckily Eruption, Rock City, On The Run, Wild Tonight, Rockship Of Love, Murder 101 and the Right FAITH NO MORE 1-800 PleasureTownshow all the talent and potential of HANSEL ! Even the ballad
, Between A Rock And A Hard Place is a very good average!
titles go to and are essential in the classic, but it is never easy for groups of "young" to make a complete album live up to its glorious influences.
The group arrived there in my opinion, with compositions that are discovered and assessed a little more with each listen. Only the first

titles and Vampire are below as the last title (The Whole Nine Yards which is a short sound). If

musicians have look very 80’s (limit parody), music and compositions are in the reliability and applied, it is far from the group disperses, or just out of his garage ...HANSEL should quickly convince fans Hard Rock 80’s of muscular and melodic! The

to Jett JONES song is really good and he is still expected to improve with time!
Busta LACEY, Grind, Joey X KALIBRE and Thruster JONES provide their parties, without making a ton, but with seriousness and effectiveness. Here

or group can and must move forward, it is in the intensity and choruses. In fact it lacks a little crazy, explosive and a little more heavy on the length. If HANSEL managed to bring all this will be really perfect! But
in one year, the group showed it was progressing and that talent was this good!
The future belongs to METAL INTEGRAL and will be there to support these sympathetic Hard Rockers on the other side of the world!
