Bio:

Formed back in the early '80s under the name Tokyo Rose, the band started out playing the local North East circuit, quickly earning themselves a reputation as part of the developing NWOBHM scene. Following an initial demo, the band were signed to Roadrunner Records who were already a leading European label.During this period the band name was changed to Dark Heart and in 1984 the debut album "Shadows Of The Night" was released.The band returned to the studio to work on a second album but unfortunately the line-up did not stabilise long enough to achieve this.However, following negotiations with Sleaszy Rider Records, founder member Alan Clark has resurrected Dark Heart with a brand new line-up consisting of guitar virtuoso Nick Catterick and former Warrior rhythm section Duncan Emmerson (bass) and Elliot Sneddon (drums). The band have agreed a two album deal and are currently writing and recording new material which will hopefully gain them a new following whilst re-uniting them with old friends!

Album:

Back in the 1980s when the New Wave of British Heavy Metal was at its peak, one of the many bands trying to make a name for themselves was Dark Heart.Alas, for them it was one album (Shadows of the Night) and out and that was that. Or was it……Well, as it turns out not quite. Dark Heart come back out of nowhere in 2021 with a quite simply stunning album of NWOBHM rooted blazing heaviness with some quite remarkable guitar going on.Main man and original member Alan Clark has co-opted the performer of that remarkable guitar work – Nick Catterick together with a monster rhythm section of Pete Newdeck and Josh Williams.The band strutting through ten songs of power with a healthy dose of melody and a sprinkling of progressive stuff all making a fine album indeed.Check out the opener for example. Darkest Eyes. Clark’s huge vocals, a blazing, savage riff and remarkable shredding from Catterick solidly backed up by the thumping drums ands bass. Such a great way to grab your ears from the off. Have a listen: If you thought that was good (and why wouldn’t you…..?) then the rest of the album will hit the spot for you.Riffs and huge chords everywhere. Nick Catterick is all over it shredding and soloing away with power and poise. It’s a guitar album for sure – that said Clark’s vocals are consistently powerful enough to match what’s going on behind him.Cast to Stone, Edge of Dreams, Degrees of Separation and Wings of the Night huge each big, crisp, hard-hitting rockers which are instantly enjoyable. And lots more of that stunning Catterick guitar.House of Usurer probably the stand-out with a he epic, atmospheric feel going on brooding away somewhat darkly and a bit proggy with Clark busting a lung. Phenomenal stuff.Break the Chains, Time to Fly and K.O.T.D a bit more “direct” and just as energetically delivered and performed as what’s gone before.Night Won’t Let Me Go closes it out with a nice chunky more melodic rocker.Breath-taking stuff from start to finish. Big sound, nice, clear production job too.After coming up a four decade hiatus, welcome back Dark Heart. Such a fine return from a NWOBHM-era band who clearly still have plenty to offer.
