New Kiske/Somerville coming soon. It's called City of Heroes.
Great tune! Looking forward to this album. Here's a few more samples...

I grabbed a Japanese version of the last one for $4 at Newbury Comics in Norwood and I really like it. These new samples sound good. Thanks for the info, Eyesore.

I'd be curious to hear the new one. I've had the first for a while. It's good, if a bit generic at points.
Somewhere, I think one of them said they weren't even in the studio at the same time while recording the songs and I can't help the feeling the stuff would have been stronger if they'd been cutting vocals live together.
They're both damn good singers, so there's nothing saying they'd need the usual "comp and autotune" treatment to create a listenable album.

I feel the same way. Enjoyable while listening, but leaves the mind fairly quickly. Vocals are top notch though, no denying that. I think Magnus just used too much good material in the first three Allen/Lande albums that by the time this came out it didn't have the extra kick it needed.

I've never even heard any of the Allen/Lande albums. Worth checking out?
