Description

Lillian Axe have always seemed to walk the line between melodic metal and riff-heavy metal, and perhaps unsurprisingly, they continue to do so on their 2009 offering, Sad Day on Planet Earth. Despite the only constant bandmember throughout the years being lead guitarist Steve Blaze, Lillian Axes aforementioned sonic approach still remains very much intact. In fact, you could probably convince an unsuspecting listener that Sad Day on Planet Earth was released circa Lillian Axe’s Love And War era. In other words, a heavy late-80s metal vibe is detected throughout, especially on the vintage power ballad-esque Within Your Reach, as well as more headbanging material (Down Below the Ocean) and more melodic fare (Ignite). Musically, Sad Day On Planet Earth is sure to appeal to those who purchase a multi-day pass each year for Rocklahoma.
