Album:
“My midnight things” suits the band with the notorious name, those who were raising hell in the 80’s but nowadays the new album comes with another style, for the old-schoolers and the new ones that keep the metal alive.A best of that includes covers and material that the lads released in the new millennium. Will it be a problem? Of course not, they know the core doesn’t change and the speedy metal can be easily heard in “Tomorrow Never Comes”, the second track!You’re in the right path to enjoy another album that, unlike bands who can’t change, brings out the best in the Borden team!Only Ira Black can be somehow considered new, cos’ Lizzy being the founder and Joey along with Marten were the crucial part of the beginnings and then the 90’s for the American metal warriors.Heavily influenced by british pioneers, mainly Maiden, we don’t hear that in this album which is the furthest departure the band had, thinking of their early efforts.As you get more inside what the album’s about, the long screams of the 80’s make way for the more melodic style of Lizzy, backed by the other members, making it a worthy piece to listen to, even surprised at certain moments of the album that includes a summer of love, only “This Ain’t A Summer Of Love”; it can’t be in a dark world of Borden fans and stage antics that through the decades provided world tours and loudness, real loudness!You can’t headbang with it unless it gets under your skin and not by chance there’s a song with those words in the title; might be a longlasting love, might be how you like it to be, the intro is very tempting to listen to, as you can somehow recognize their gothic influences during the first seconds.Talkin’ about love, it ain’t a happy end, actually there’s no end in their world…only one thing’s for sure: “Lovin’ You Is Murder” ! Even though the guitar riffs are sweeter than the title, the words are pure black reality, for those who live it. The black rose is why the scar across his heart never fades away, not counting the years in between.Maiden influences reveal themselves in what Lizzy Borden are fond of writing for, midnight!“Master of Disguise” was arguably their best of the 80’s but another best of is ready for the fans on nov. 13-th, that will be a double joy, with the new AC/DC album coming out!12 Lizzy Borden tracks for any fanatic metalhead to blow the speakers with!Ramones’ “Pat Semetary” cover will make you like this version even more, as the love appears on “Burning for you”, the neverdying Blue Oyster Cult hit, as the fire burns even brighter than the original song!Modern, loud, true metal, with the involvement of Tom Baker, it’s definitely the ultimate album to close any emotional breakdown caused by corona this year, as we impatiently wait for another flaming world tour by the “Bloody dudes of midnight”, Lizzy Borden!
