#21 - Top of 2020

 HEAT - HEAT II (Avalon Label)   

It seems like some Swedish hard rock bands have found the secret to creating memorable tunes that can become instant hits. H.E.A.T are the perfect example of Whitesnake-reminiscent bands with songs like "Rock Your Body" which stick to your mind and are perfect to lift your mood at any time and day. The band has been active since 2007, but changed their sound along with their lead singer for 10 years. The return of Kenny Leckremo in the lead vocals is a pleasant surprise which notes their return to the earlier days of the first album. Leckremo's energy fits perfectly with the melodic tunes that ooze from all tracks.  The album is packed with awesome tracks like "Adrenaline" and "Dangerous Ground", but there is no doubt that "Rise" is by far the most uplifting song and personal favourite. H.E.A.T have gone back to their heavier but still melodic sound, so if your are looking for an unapologetically upbeat album do not hesitate to check H.E.A.T II out!
