"Bring Heavy Rock To The Land" is the Jorn Lande's ninth album. Far from the performances of Ark and Beyond Twilight and their Progressive Metal, Avantasia and its Melodic Metal, or Masperplan and its Heavy Metal, you'll have here some basic Hard-Rock as Dio proposed us on his unavoidable "Holy Diver".
Yes, but here's the thing, it's not Dio who wants to, because this album is severly boring. If we listen closely to this ten-track album, from which we'll remove "Ride Like The Wind", the useless cover of Christopher Cross' hit that Saxon had adapted in a more efficient way, "Time To Be King", the even more incongruous cover of Masterplan and the track "My Road" which sounds more like an intro than a real track, there's nothing to be ecstatic about on the seven remaining tracks.
The eponymous track stretches lazily its seven minutes on an almost invariable tempo which wearies very quickly just like "A Thousand Cuts" with its eight minutes melodically linear. "Chains Around You" speeds up the tempo with its few melodic bursts but gets entangled once again in a desolate rhythmic redundancy. "The Word I See" is a soulless ballad and "I Came To Rock" is distressingly flat. Only "Ride To The Guns", a kind of lively and melodic breath, and "Black Morning", a Southern-Rock acoustic ballad, allow the album not to be a complete failure.
In conclusion, "Bring Heavy Rock To The Land" is an album to forget. I can't advise Mr. Lande enough to stop thinking he's Ronnie and go back to what made his strength... - Official website
