Still Great After All These Years: Seven Deadly Album Review

 4.5/5              

             

     When I first saw that UFO put out Seven Deadly, I wanted to buy it right away because I wanted to see how new music by the band would be.  Right away, when the song "Fight Night" started, I knew that this was going to be one heck of an album.  UFO has achieved being a band for 33 years.  But this album achieved them the glory of being able to still make great music.  They still play greater than ever, and they definitely still have that raw energy that defines them as a band.  The first song "Fight Night" starts out with a heavy riff by guitarist Vinnie Moore.  Then Phil Mogg starts to sing, and his vocals sound amazing.  The chorus is also great, because it has great lyrics, and great background vocals.  The next song on the album is called "Wonderland."  It has a very heavy riff, and it has amazing vocals.  The guitar solo by Vinnie Moore is mind blowing, and it is my favorite by him. The next song, "Goin' On Down To Mojo Town" is a great sng, because it is much different than most UFO songs because it has a very country feel to it.  It has a very catchy riff, and it also has a very memorable chorus.  After these three songs, the next seven songs are all great, but not as memorable.  My favorite of these songs is the fourth song on the album, "Angel Station."  It is a very touching Southern Rock ballad, and it has some great vocals by Phil Mogg.  I highly recommend this album.  It really shows UFO back at the top of their game, and it really does justice to their albums of the past.  It is one of my favorite albums by the band, and it is really worth buying.
