Safe on the other side | CD | High Spirits

Slipcase

After 'Another Night' (2011), 'You Are Here' (2014), 'Motivator' (2016), and 'Hard To Stop' (2020), High Spirits from Chicago finally release their long-awaited fifth studio album in the form of 'Safe On The Other Side'. There could not be a more fitting record to celebrate the 20th anniversary of High Roller Records. 'Safe On The Other Side' bears the catalog number HRR1000, a fact that fills Chris 'The Professor' Black, multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and founder of High Spirits, with great pride. The band plays hard rock with influences from various rock and metal genres of the 1970s and 1980s. The expertly embedded Thin Lizzy double-lead attacks, as well as the compactness and catchiness of the songs, must be highlighted. The songs on 'Another Night' were compared to melodic bands of the NWOBHM like Tygers Of Pan Tang, Praying Mantis, or early Iron Maiden.
