James Dean Bradfield - Even in Exile (2020)
Second solo album by the Manic Street Preachers' singer/guitarist, a concept album about the poet and activist Victor Jara, tortured and murdered in 1973 by Pinochet's fascist regime, with lyrics by the poet and playwright Patrick Jones (Nicky Wire's older brother). The album has a bit of everything: prog, folk, alternative rock... Very different to his first solo album but great nonetheless.
@The_7th_one You would probably enjoy this great piece about the album, including an interview with James Dean Bradfield:

James Dean Bradfield, de repente Víctor Jara
Una pandemia que asola la humanidad, una nueva crisis económica cuando aún no habíamos salido de la anterior, crecimiento de la ultraderecha en el mundo, gobiernos cercanos a esa ideología en los EE.

Power Windows + Fugazi album covers turned into reality ?
I remember that band. I liked this album- I remember the heavy Rock magazine rivalry Crom and Fuck Off (thrash metal oriented band) I think both bands recorded in Ibiza studio, the same one that Judas Proest recorded Screaming for Vengeance and Defenders of the Faith.

Sadly disbanded after this great album and I don't know why. Fuck Off released Hell on Hearth album later and another band from Barcelona: Legion. Heavy Rock bet for this band. I think Crom's singer and bass player created another band later called Crossbones. I remember because I bought the demo in tape. That was all and I think he went to LA and he lives there since then.
I think Crom released their first album in 87 or 88 and they had a little bit success in Uk with that one.

Hmm, the album is lively enough for me, but it may be lacking some stronger ideas. The attitude is definitely there - that's good - but there are no monster hits musically. For me, it's a 7/10 or 7.5/10.He tried to sound 90s again..... but a 6/10
