Serpentine, the British quintet who burst on to the scene with two critically acclaimed albums in 2010 & 2012 including the Japanese charting A Touch Of Heaven album - which received a 92% rating in Burrn!

Serpentine are very adept at writing songs with patient choruses and then giving these enough kick to deliver maximum impact. If they retain this standard they could be sailing very calm waters to success. At times they’re almost Journey-esque. Close to being melodic rock paradise.”
