Since he decided to jump from a boat that was water everywhere to lose freshness and too close to the melodic sounds, Udo has remained true to some parameters where there is little room for innovation.
With varying degrees of success, from the initial Animal House (87) and Mean Machine (88), until the last Mission N º X (2005) and Mastercutor (2007), vocalist Germany has remained undaunted by the new currents of metal.
Stubborn he brings 22 years of his solo career betting on the typical heavy metal ochentenas references, to the cheers of his staunch supporters and detractors nuisance. The truth is that the tough Udo still releasing albums left worthy testimony to his persistence and charisma. Ratified again with the release of Dominator, where their schemes remain unchanged.
Obviously, Accept connections are unquestionable, as has been demonstrated in all his solo albums. If we add that today his former band colleague, Stefan Kaufmann , besides playing the guitar has been in charge of production, mixing and mastering, understand better closer to sounds on recognition.
Whereas UDO past its present condition, it is fair to note that Dominator has interesting things. Although entry to the guitar riffs sound a bit decadent, once the momentary mental regression to mellow sounds, it is accepted that, while not new, yet are attractive and have that hook that has survived to the formation to the present. In this, the most representative moments are found in, "The Boeyman" , simple and marked rhythm like "Dominator" , appellant also an interesting dynamic, alone, or the first single, "Black And White" , with its catchy chorus. Not forgetting "Heavy Metal Heaven" .
compositions are also showing a less aggressive Udo as "Stillnes Of Time" , where the low effectiveness integers. By contrast, faster side stand "Infected" and "Speed \u200b\u200bDemon" , themes where the energy in the album reaches its peak.
Moreover, for those who criticize Mr. Dirkschneider immobility, we recommend the fun entitled "Devil's Rendezvous" , close focus to popular music.
In summary, a new release that should not surprise anyone, with appealing moments, especially when combined with creativity to mix guitar riffs with developments characteristic solo seductive presence.
