"Metropolis" is the long-awaited sixth studio album released by British AOR/hard rock band FM, their first since 1995. FM reformed in 2007 to headline Firefest IV, and following Andy Barnett's subsequent departure, FM recruited new guitarist Jim Kirkpatrick in time to once again headline Firefest in October 2009 and record the new album. Metropolis was produced by the band and recorded at various studios including world-renowned Metropolis Studios in London (providing the band with the inspiration for the album title itself), where famous clients include Queen and more recently The Who and The Black Eyed Peas.
"Midnight sun" is a technical/neoclassical hard rock band from Sweden. Foremost the musicians are true virtuosos making extensive use of their technique without causing the album to sound complicated; instead they use progressions and neoclassical elements to make their compositions even more infectious and catchy. Rainbow and Yngwie Malmsteen fans have reason to rejoice.
