Mystery Blue
Mystery Blue was
formed by Frenzy (guitar) in 1982, but due to some
difficulties in the group they changed the line up and
did change all in the band back in 1996. So now the band
is
Nahtalie-lead vocals
Vince-drums (ex. Alter)
Dany-bass (ex. Time Riders)
Frenzy-guitar
These 3 tracks are recorded at Jam Music in Pirmasen,
Germany. The producers are Andy Lubbert and Stefan Glass.
This French group impresses a lot, especially Nahtalie and
Frenzy. I don’t know though what the album is called.
The group plays 80's metal and they do it really good. In
these nu-metal days it is eminent that there is band
sticking to what they do best, like Mystery Blue. Much of
the band’s greatness is based on Nathalie’s amazing voice.
"Dark Visions" has a slow intro with only guitar before
the rest of the group joins in and the song kicks off.
It’s kind of a slow 80's metal song and the guitar solo
is brilliant. In "Angel" Nahtalie’s voice sounds really
good. "Rollercoaster Ride" is more of a faster 80's metal
track.
Mystery Blue impresses a lot, especially if you’re a fan
of 80's metal like me. I’m looking forward to the album.
If the album is as good as these 3 tracks then Mystery
Blue has the future ahead of them.
