Hi Carl,

You're right, House of Shakira do not sound like Journey at all!


very good statement!


Name one Journey song that even comes close to "In your head"???

No Journey song rocks that hard...that song is about as perfect melodic hard rock as you can get


well....I should suggest taking a listen to either the 2nd half of the Escape cd, parts of the Departure cd or something like "Edge of the Blade" from the Frontiers cd. Note: Edge of the Blade....yea, it's the same one that is on the new Jorn Starfire cd.
For that matter, something like "I Can See It In Your Eyes" from the Japanese version of Trial By Fire was heavier than anything they had done since the Frontiers cd.



Whilst other bands are out there copying, House of SHakira are one of the most original in the scene. Kudos to Mats and Anders!!


Agreed there.....they definitely sound unique and are most definitely the better for it. Easily one of the best new bands out there.
