Unstoppable, stubborn, determined to conquer new worlds are these extravagant looking Vikings. The Poodles’ creativity and talent continue to look at new and boundless horizons and mightily shout out their power of suggestion, with that varied taste that ranges from AOR to melodic metal and with their disruptive artistic nature, which incites me to define their music as a twenty-first century multicolor power pomp. An opulent discography a new pawing creature has been added to with ‘Tour De Force’. The way these gents have revived and reinvented Scandi Melodic Rock owes to the daring ability to insert sounds, instruments, arrangements and – at times – guests, completely unpredictable, and combine them with their brilliant songwriting, without corrupting the matrix of their unmistakable sound. An experiment only the big ones succeed to and they are without a doubt.
