ROCKPOMMEL'S LAND

Rockpommel's Land is a must have. Great concept album with a nice playful story, that is expressively told in music and lyrics. Some reviews I have read kind of knock the story line. I actually like it the way it is, the music more that fills in what is not expressed in words. Get the re-mastered version of the CD from the Repertoire lable. The quality shines on that release, plus there is an extra track. One thing that I miss on this particular record is the enthusiasm other Grobschnitt albums have and what makes this band so unique, you can tell they love what they do. On this album things are more controlled. EROC I consider the best drummer ever, he blows me away. Here you have a band where musicians knew how to play with great skill and have fund fun with it. Even on this album some of the enthusiasm is not fully expressed, I still consider this a progressive rock masterpiece.
