( vote)For listeners and fans, it’s always incredibly satisfying when a band consistently gets better with age. That is the case here with Magnum’s new release Lost On The Road To Eternity. This is the British act’s 20th studio album. The band’s nearly limitless, pooled experience has all come together nicely to produce an album of irresistible, thoughtful Classic Hard Rock.
Lost On The Road To Eternity features some of the band’s best arrangements and a complex level of instrumentation that elevates the already wonderful songs to truly instant classic status.
From the up-tempo, piano laden, singalong style choruses of “Show Me Your Hands” to the introspective and gut-wrenchingly honest lyrics of “Without Love”, this album highlights some of the best songwriting of Magnum and the sub-genre at large. Flavors of Electric Light Orchestra come through on the album’s title track, but any influences that are at work here remain well in the background, allowing Magnum’s years of honing their craft to come to the forefront. This is an album not to be missed by any Classic Hard Rock fan.
