WIG WAM – Non Stop Rock’n Roll

8.0 / 10
WIG WAM started off really great with an excellent debut album a few years ago that paved the way for many other bands to finally start playing Melodic Hardrock/Glam the 80s way and after participating in the Eurovision Song Contest with the excellent “In my dreams”, the band went on releasing another great album and doing some DVD’s. Now they are back and I think that is all we can say about the new album ‘Non stop rock and roll’. It’s not that it is a bad album, because it sounds huge and very 80s… but it all sounds a bit over-the-top and cheap, damn… the catchy melodies are missing somehow, except perhaps in “Rocket through my heart” (ROXETTE’s “Sleeping in my car” chorus has been borrowed here) and “Still ‘em burning”, 2 great uptempo melodic rockers… However, most of the time the album sounds like just another standard 80s glam rock and roll record… (8.0).
