Groundbreaker - 'S/T' Album Review


 Groundbreaker - 'S/T' Album Review

Groundbreaker is the new project featuring Steve ”The Voice” Overland of F.M  and Robert Sall of  Work Of Art and W.E.T. These two gentlemen are both mainstays in the melodic rock arena, so when these guys get together expectations are high and unsurprisingly they’ve come through.


Anybody who is familiar with F.M already knows that they’re going to be listening to in my opinion the greatest voice that has ever graced the melodic rock scene and I don’t think I’m alone considering the amount of acts that have collaborated with Steve. Robert Sall has brought together a phenomenal cast of musicians to record has opus and has written songs that are a perfect fit for Steve’s vocal style he hasn’t written the next F.M. album. 


Groundbreaker is a collection of upbeat fist pumping melodic rock that you will want to play over and over again, I only heard this album for the first time today and it has been on repeat for the last 14 hours (it’s now 10pm). This is an album that you don’t have to break down song by song to review it because I say this with my hand on my heart that in my opinion there isn’t a single weak track here and that this is the perfect melodic rock album, in fact I think it’s so good that I had multiple eargasms!!

Whilst I do look forward to new albums by both established and new artists I don’t get excited however in this instance I am genuinely excited, I’ve already pre-ordered this gem and the 14th of September can not come fast enough so that I can get my grubby little mits on the physical version of Groundbreaker, put your hands in your pockets open your wallet and get out your card if you’re going to pre-order any release year this is the one you should.


This album gets a very well deserved 10/10.
