Charge are a band from France that plays a mixture of hard rock and heavy metal and this is a review of their self released 2015 album "Sweet Lies".
A very hard and heavy sound starts off the album along with some old school hard rock style leads that dominate throughout the recording and the riffs also bring in a decent amount of melody and the vocals are all done in a clean singing direction and the music incorporates a good mixture of both rock and metal influences.
All of the musical instruments on the recording have a very powerful sound to them and all of the tracks are modern sounding while they still mix in a lot of old school influences and you can also hear a touch of alternative rock in some of the tracks and the whole album also sticks to a hard and heavy musical direction and the last track brings in more aggressive vocals and a brief use of clean playing.
Charge plays a musical style that mixes heavy metal and hard rock together along with a touch of alternative to create a sound of their own, the production sounds very professional for being a self released recording while the lyrics cover real life themes.
In my opinion Charge are a very great sounding mixture of heavy rock and metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Fantasy" "That's it" and "One". 8 out of 10.
