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.
