Product Description Burst The Bubble is The Company of Snakes' successful attempt to come up with an album that forges a link with unforgettable Whitesnake recordings like ‘Ready And Willin' or ‘Lovehunter'. With their timeless hard rock Made in Britain that is based on blues, boogie and traditional rock influences, The Company Of Snakes reduce possible arguments about trends and fashions to absurdity, while proving that there will always be an audience for their brand of classic rock. Like they did during the glorious Seventies and Eighties, Micky Moody and Bernie Marsden have once again proved that they not only continue to rank among the best rock guitarists of the scene, they are also among the most distinctive and tasteful composers of their genre. Songs like the opener ‘Labour of Love', the melodic ‘Sacrificial Feeling', ‘Little Miss Happiness' with its good-time rock'n'roll attitude, ‘Back To The Blues' (which really doesn't require further explanation), or the ballad ‘Those Days' bear the unmistakable mark of the two experienced musicians and songwriters. Moody and Marsden are supported by brilliant instrumentalists, among which particularly vocalist Stefan Berggren stands out with his bluesy, clear timbre. Berggren's voice and vocal style follow in the footsteps of David Coverdale or Paul Rodgers (Free, Bad Company), without ever copying these rock legends. Burst The Bubble was produced by Nikolo Kotzev, producer, songwriter, and guitarist with acts like Baltimore, Brazen Abbot or Nostradamus and engineer/producer of the current Saxon release Killing Ground. About the Artist On the list of the most important and influential bands in the history of rock music, the now-disbanded Whitesnake have always featured in a prominent position. Particularly the original line-up consisting of vocalist David Coverdale, the two guitarists Bernie Marsden and Micky Moody and bassist Neil Murray is still considered legendary. Whitesnake operated in this brilliant line-up between 1978 and 1982, releasing a number of celebrated albums like Northwinds (1978), Snakebite (1978), Trouble (1978), Live At Hammersmith (1978), Lovehunter (1979), Ready An' Willing (1980), Live In The Heart Of The City (1980), and Come & Get It (1981). Their 1982 recording Saints An' Sinners marked the end of the classic line-up. David Coverdale reorganised the group and landed real mega-sellers with the subsequent offerings Slide It In (9184) and particularly 1987. The album 1987 (including the single release ‘Here I Go Again') went on to become the most successful album in the band's history. While Coverdale continued to work with different Whitesnake line-ups, Bernie Marsden, Micky Moody and Neil Murray initially went their separate ways. Marsden formed Alaska, and Moody, together with Bad Company drummer Boz Burrell, founded the band Nightfly. Bassist Neil Murray joined Gary Moore, with whom he, and the two Deep Purple musicians Ian Paice and Jon Lord, continued to write rock history, eventually working with Brian May and Peter Green's Splinter Group. Towards the end of the Nineties, Moody, Marsden, and Murray, to the delight of their fans, brought back the memorable early Whitesnake flair with the foundation of The Company of Snakes, enlisting the support of former Rainbow/Gary Moore/Ozzy Osbourne keyboarder Don Airey. Their drummer was the former Manfred Mann's Earthband/Roger Chapman/Elkie Brooks skinsman John Lingwood, while the vocalist had to be replaced a number of times, until the ideal frontman was found in Stockholm-born Stefan Berggren! . The Company Of Snakes toured all over Europe in this impressive line-up, leaving enthusiastic fans in their wake who delighted in a new range of timeless rock songs, presenting their brilliant double live album Here They Go Again in January 2001, including a number of legendary Whitesnake rock classics like ‘Here I Go Again', ‘Lovehunter', ‘Fool For Your Loving', ‘Sweet Talker' and the Rainblow classic ‘Since You've Been Gone', as well as a number of new tracks. The band then embarked on their successful European tour alongside Mob Rules and subsequently ensconced themselves in the studio to start working on Burst The Bubble. Following the release of their new album, The Company Of Snakes are due to embark on another European tour – dates to be revealed in the near future.
