Aidean - Promises (1988)

Almost sickly in its harmonies, 'Promises' is a bit of an obscurity in terms of melodic rock and comes complete with some rather sneering vocal gripes. Even so, there is a low-budget charm and real catchy quality about this band who hail from German and spout out some of the most irritatingly catchy AOR I've ever heard. One listen to 'Do You Call Again' and 'Rocks You' will put you under the spell of these boys who clearly have an eye for the infectious. With its strong bubble-gum flavour I found myself constantly spinning this obscurity so if you can nab yourself a copy then do give in to the craving.
7/10
