Press Reviews
Much like fellow countrymen FAIR WARNING, Rock Of Ages play no frills melodic hard rock, led by Beaty Blisnjuk the band belt out cool songs like "Broken Heart", this track has some really nice guitar work from Axel Stender , vocally Beaty reminds me of SANDI SARAYA and LANA LANE. She has a sleek but powerful range, which is backed by some tastefull melody instumentation from the band which is made up with Michael Pehlgrim on keys and Frank Husmann on bass guitar.
My favorite song is the semi ballad "She's Singing Na Na Na...", I love the way Beaty's voice goes skyhigh, this is a moody dark song and is very nice to listen to.
Also very good is, no make that brilliant is the SARAYAish "When The Children Cry", superbly structured and reminds me of other bands like DOKKEN, ROMEOS DAUGHTER, JOHN NORUM (solo), LANA LANE, DANTE FOX etc.. the chorus is simply spot on, and again Beaty hits some really nice notes. This is a five track mini album which serves as an introduction to the bands music which could also be described as the female version of FAIR WARNING. A very nice start.
