Janne Stark’s Top 15 of 2023
So here’s my Top 15 of 2023 (with some extra honorary mentions). If you miss some stuff it may actually be because I actually haven’t heard it (or maybe it wasn’t to my liking enough to make the Top 15).
Wytch Hazel – IV: Sacrament – Outstanding proggy hard rock, like a mix of classic Demon and heavy Jethro Tull with a NWoBHM touch.
Cloud Catcher – Return From The Cauldron – Ball busting US powerful riff rockers do it again!
A.C.T – Falling – My favorite Swedish pop-progsters never disappoint!
Blindstone – Scars To Remember – Martin sure knows how to riff!!
The Cold Stares – Voices – US blues rockers that deliver yet another killer album!
Dirty Honey – Can’t Find The Brakes – The 70s rules! Dirty Honey proves it!
Beastmaker – Body And Soul – Previously unreleased demos, yet, bloody great stuff! For fans of classic Black Sabbath.
Vandenberg – Sin – Mats Leven has sure brought a new touch to this excellent classic band!
Timechild – Blossom & Plague – The Danes manage to follow up their debut with an even better album!
Prins Svart – Till vårt försvar – Mats Leven, again, delivers the goods with these excellent Swedish riff rockers!
Tania Kikidi – Wings Of Freedom – Tania has leather coated vocal cords, perfect for this bluesy metal album!
Ego Planet – Ego Planet – More outstanding heavy riff rock! A KILLER debut!
Bloody Dice – Bloody Dice – A new Danish power combo that shows that Danish Dynamite is still highly explosive!
Zhiva – Into The Eye Of The Storm – Excellent heavy melodic Swedish rockers!
Future Elephants? – The Past Was A Blast… - Just love these slightly quirky Swedish progy rockers!
Honorary mentions:
Care Of Night – Reconnected – Killer AOR!
Sour Cream – Sour Cream – More killer retro riffing!
Sass Jordan – Live In New York Ninety-Four – Sass rocks! What a killer live album!!
