MegaSnake: Charming
Charming is the debut album by Finnish hard rock/heavy metal band MegaSnake. By the way they sound, the band pictures included in their media package, and their previous participation in bands like Leningrad Cowboys, Gringos Locos, Kings of Modesty, etc., is safe to imply that they’re veterans of the scene. That lineup is comprised of Tipe Johnson on vocals, Twist Twist Erkinharju on drums, Samuel Hjelt on guitars, and Henrik Tuura on bass.
This is a good sounding album, very well presented and produced. All songs are catchy and have multiple hooks, the rhythmic section is formidable, and is a fast listen, barely clicking over 30 minutes… but there’s a lot going on under the apparent simplicity of the songs. They sound like a mix between Dio era Sabbath and Hagar era VH, with a “mature sounding Coverdale” on vocals, so the result is inevitable appealing to hard rock lovers, specially that hard rock made in the late 70’s and early 80’s. There’s a lot of EVH influence on the guitar work, which is fabulous, as are both the vocal harmonies and melodies… on top of it there’s a simple, sometimes fun, and easy to follow lyrical content… the humming and singing is inevitable after just a couple of listens. My highlights are the opener “Sun Don’t Shine”, “My Window”, “All in Good Time”, “Don’t”, and “HeVil”, but the truth is that is a highly enjoyable album full of details to like and approve. Cheers
