From Copenhagen, Denmark come the new promising melodic hard rock/ heavy metal-act MISSING TIDE. Formed in 2007, the line-up consists of some of the most experienced and talented musicians from the Danish heavy metal scene with backgrounds in world renowned bands such as Royal Hunt, Pretty Maids, Evil Masquerade, Manticora and Kingdom Come. With a basis in Kasper Gram’s consistent bass play and the pounding and energetic drums from Allan Tschicaja, combined with powerful guitar riffs from Jacob Kjaer and Henrik Brockmann’s characteristic, intense and unique voice, Missing Tide produces a solid, melodic sound, which cannot be ignored.
On the debut album Follow the Dreamer, MISSING TIDE demonstrates how they manage to create a sound with roots in the eighties hard rock and heavy metal universe, that is still present and fresh. The eleven great songs of Follow the Dreamer are build upon heavy guitar riffs and a solid rhythm section, but with the melody hook lines in centre. Put together, “Follow the Dreamer” is in every way a great rock album.
“Follow the Dreamer” has everything from the more basic melodic metal tunes “Never Surrender“, “Fairytale“, and “Victim of a Crime“, to the more up-tempo songs such as “Traces of Fire“, “Push It to the Limit“ and the title song “Follow the Dreamer“, which all have a bit of elements of the neo-classical hard rock genre in them. On the emotional ballad “Broken Wings” the beat slows down a notch, which creates a bit of variation. The same goes for the final and heaviest song on the album, “Long Live the Heroes”. This song is a tribute to all the great hard rock bands of the eighties and takes Missing Tide back to their own youth, where they grew up listening to the music, that they love and live for to this day.
