There is plenty to celebrate about this album. It is chock full of well-crafted energetic slices of hardcore punk heaven. There are plenty of classic ripping riffs, mixing with the solos.
Album Reviews
RHR (Redfern, Hutchinson & Ross) – Hotel Toledo Review
Three of the most exciting up and coming names in blues-rock unite once more to produce the spontaneous instrumental masterpiece that is Hotel Toledo. This is the second album release from the triple-guitar frontman line-up, following on from last year’s heavily Southern-influenced Mahogany Drift.

Exhorder – Mourn The Southern Skies Review

one band has deemed themselves as being so daring, so adventurous and so far ahead of the pack, that their music is worthy of being called “Extreme Power Metal.” That band is, of course, British band Dragonforce
