This guy is like a workaholic, he keeps putting out new albums with different bands.
He's like the Michael Sweet of Sweden! Smile

Can't say I like everything he puts out, but when he scores, he scores big.

This sounds like it could be really good. I love some of his side projects as well as Narnia. I just wish he could keep some of the projects going. I'd love to hear more Audiovision.

Yes, more Audiovision with that original sound.

How'd he fit all those there?

I'm not sure about this project. Could be that I'm not in the mood for this type of music, but I just put on The Waymaker and I like it a lot more. I pre-ordered that one and got it signed. I like a lot of Christian Liljegren's projects but I'm not feeling this one enough to do that.

I'm not impressed yet. This one's definitely on the softer side of the things that Christian has done so far, I'd say this is more mellow than Audiovision but the guitar tone is definitely rougher than Flagship for instance. But while I loved that Flagship album, this song lacks something. Normally his voice is enough to make a mediocre song worthwhile but this one just feels... I don't know, flat.
