FUTURE PAST

Swedish big-hair music, I'd say. If you look at Hasse in the Flower King's 'Paradise Hotel' DVD, and in particular, in 'Stardust we are', then maybe you'll appreciate what I mean. This haircuts rocks!

Full-bodied, big-hearted music from The Flower Kings' lead singer, and certainly not the same as them, but likeable nonetheless. Alternative avenues are explored within its realm, but it never strays enough (for me at least) from the path that it's trying to follow. It all ends up (not surprisingly) with the last track trying to replicate a Flower Kings finale.

It won't cure your Flower Kings withdrawal symptoms, but equally it IS a likeable effort.
