Our Take

The latest offering from guitar virtuoso Michael Schenker and his band, the MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP, entitled Universal, is a cosmic journey through the universe of classic rock and metal. From the opening track, "Eternal Bliss," Schenker's intricate guitar work and mesmerizing solos grab the listener's attention and never let go.

Throughout the album, the band showcases their versatility, seamlessly transitioning from hard-hitting tracks like "Warrior" to more melodic offerings such as "Under a Blood Red Sky." Vocalist Ronnie Romero's powerful voice soars over the thundering rhythm section, adding depth and emotion to each song.

Tracks like "Soul Sacrifice" and "After the Rain" showcase the band's ability to craft catchy hooks and memorable riffs that stick in your head long after the record has ended. The production on Universal is top-notch, with each instrument shining through in the mix, creating a dynamic and powerful sound.

While some may argue that Schenker's signature sound has been done before, there's no denying the skill and passion that he brings to each track on this album. Universal is a testament to Schenker's enduring talent and his ability to keep rocking after all these years. So, grab your air guitar and get ready to rock out to this stellar release from the MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP.
