“Brotherhood of Wolves” is BOW’s debut album, a project led by Tommy López and Vladimir Emelin. They both collaborated with the late Ken Hensley (Uriah Heep) on his last job, and after his death they decided to launch this hard rock project in a fairly broad sense and without very defined limits.
And I don’t know if there is the oven for buns, as the vulgar expression goes, but the fact is that BOW have taken off the hook with a double debut at a time when music is going through one of the most delicate moments in recent times. A total of twenty-three songs that our protagonists wrote in about four months at the start of the pandemic.
In this way, we find ourselves before a work that, as we said before, reviews hard rock in a way that is not sectarian but at the same time quite exhaustive. because in “Brotherhood of Wolves” almost everything fits within those coordinates, from the AOR and the most melodic cuts, through the pure ballads, to even the most forceful and harsh hard rock cuts.
The result is an entertaining album, although somewhat dense -especially in the first reproductions-, intended for all that public that enjoys rock, hard rock and even the heavy of the 80s.
For me quite interesting, although as I said at the beginning, it needs a bit of perseverance to be able to be assimilated in conditions.
