II
Written by Magnus Florin

As the title says, the second release from the swedish band Lions Share. The main thing I see in this band is the vocalist Andy Engberg. He must be one of the best coming from Sweden, easily comparable with Ronnie James Dio, Tony Martin and that kind of singers.

What Lions Share has done with this albums, is that they've gone forward into a little more progressive style. Before it was more Black Sabbath sounding songs and riffs, but now there a lot more behind it. Persoanlly I liked the first album better, becaue it had a better average, but I know people who has said the opposite. Highlights on "II" are tracks 4 and 6. The first mentioned is a ballad, that you wouldn't expect coming from Lions Share. I mean, it's hard to imagine the big, bald Andy Engberg standing on stage doing this tune. Track 6 is the best song they've done so far. It reminds me of Black Sabbath with Tony Martin, but it also has that epic feel to it. Real good! Track 7 is a cover of the band Secret Service...
