Pentral – What Lies Ahead of Us
These guys are more than the sum of their influences and I believe they can go on to greater things.

Besides some critical notes on the lack of aggression on the album, I am very pleased with the overall performance of Sylvan this time around. In detail, there is a lot to discover again and the returning of the vocal styles from the earlier days makes me fall back in love with Marco Glühmann. For the real Sylvan fan, this is a riskless purchase!
What sounds at first to be a straight-forward rock album, turns out to be so much more: The Wring² Project Cipher!
“Mountain Fever” is wild, experimental, over the top and exaggerated, but at the same time solidly based on the band’s roots and trademark sound and put together so well that it just works.
VOLA has produced a style transcending album that is catchy, well produced, heavier than their previous productions, but still one of those albums that in a few years’ time you’ll still put on because it never gets tiring.
