Another record came out from the Italian record company Frontiers! I'm a little
bit anxious when I discover a brand new release on this record label. It seems
to me that all the bands produced by this company sound like each other. My
impression of this record label is that the bands who anybody don't want, will
accept by them. Remembering Giant, Hurricane, and Co.
Today, I'm very surprised by the quality of this performer. The character of
the group could be defined as "a heavy barrage of melody driven rock songs
with pounding grooves and hard, sometimes merciless, yet tasty guitars"!
It all started in early 1999 when Klay Shroedel produced the Jimi Jamison
album entitled Empires. He found a studio for finishing the arrangements
and was introduced to producer, songwriter and musician Peter Roberts. Peter
charted a Dance Top 20 hit in '97 with Irene Cara for All
My Heart and wrote George Benson's All I Know.
He also worked for rock artists such as Stan Bush Always
and Bryan Duncan No Greater Love. They searched
for a bass player. When they heard a recording of Jeff Adams, a world-class
vocalist and bassist, they immediately realized that he was the man for the
band. Jeff worked with a lot of rock stars such as Mickey Thomas, Bobby
Kimball and Jimi Jamison too! There's was just one little problem,
he was currently a member of Starship. It was clear that they had to
form the band… and it was done. Under Suspicion was born.
The musicians combine several rock styles and incredible vocal duets. This
is a perfect production who lets the place to the energy and lyrics. The melodies
stick rapidly in mind and turn your rainy days to sunny ones. A brilliant
AOR like a light in the darkness.
