Ten Years After - A Sting In The Tale
Review by Lukmanul Hakim
Ten Years After has returned with their latest album, A Sting In The Tale, and fans of the classic rock genre are sure to be pleased. The album features 10 tracks that showcase the band's signature sound, with plenty of guitar riffs, bluesy melodies, and powerful vocals.
From the opening track, "Land of the Vandals," it's clear that Ten Years After hasn't lost their touch. The song features a driving rhythm section and some impressive guitar work from frontman Alvin Lee. Other standout tracks include "Iron Horse," which has a catchy chorus and a great guitar solo, and "Suranne Suranne," which showcases Lee's impressive vocal range.
One of the strengths of A Sting In The Tale is the variety of styles that the band incorporates into their music. "Miss Constable" is a slower, more introspective track that features some beautiful acoustic guitar work, while "Silverspoon Lady" has a more upbeat, almost funky feel.

Summary by Lukmanul Hakim
Comments
I wasn't expecting this album to be so good even without Alvin Lee; it's power blues that's well produced and the tracks are well written too. Recommended.

This newest version of Ten Years After still has a great sound with the new frontman and bass player. After all these years this is still a great classic rock act here.
