Louder Than Ever [Digipak]

Personnel: Ronnie Atkins (vocals); Ken Hammer (guitar); Morten Sandager (keyboards); Allan Tschicaja (drums). The Frontier Records-issued Louder Than Ever finds Danish hard rock legends Pretty Maids revisiting some of their favorite songs from past albums, while giving their listeners a taste of things to come as well. A follow-up to 2013's Motherland, the group's 13th long-player, the 12-track outing features re-recorded studio versions of fan favorites like "Wake Up to the Real World," "Playing God," "Virtual Brutality," and "Snakes in Eden," while offering up four brand-new tracks in "Deranged," "My Soul to Take," "Nuclear Boomerang," and "A Heart Without a Home." ~ James Christopher Monger
