Brazilian melodic rockers Landfall are pleased to share their new official video “SOS”, taken from their latest studio album, “Wide Open Sky”, out now via Frontiers Music Srl.
Vocalist Gui Oliver commented: “‘SOS’ is a cry for help. I believe the words ‘pain’, ‘desperation’ and ‘hope’ can define this song. The tension and groove are inspired by the late Extreme songs”.
“A song that explores a different side of the band. It’s one of our heaviest songs with a progressive touch. Very intricate parts on this one! Also, we just played it live, and it has an energy that works perfectly on a live environment! We are making justice to it releasing this beautiful video, I’m glad we did it!”, added guitarist Marcelo Gelbcke.
Landfall, the Hard rockers from Curitiba, Brazil, features singer Gui Oliver (ex-Auras), guitarist Marcelo Gelbcke, bassist Luis Rocha, and drummer Felipe Souzza, are back with an almighty bang!
The band’s delightful Melodic Rock/AOR sound can best be described as falling somewhere between classic melodic rock, a là Journey, and slightly heavier influences, such as classic era Dokken, White Lion, and Extreme. With phenomenal musical and songwriting abilities and the golden voice of Oliver, Landfall is truly a welcome addition to the melodic rock genre.
The new album delivers a solid band and the new songs are stronger, able to capture the best of each band member, melodic rock has never sounded better!
Landfall was originally formed by drummer Felipe Souzza and guitarist Marcelo Gelbcke, childhood friends who have been playing together since they were about 15 years old. Some years later, bassist Thiago Forbeci joined up with them and added new musical input and influences, at which point the band decided to go in a new direction.
During this period, they released three independent albums under the name Wild Child, performing several concerts around Brazil, including opening for acts such as Glenn Hughes and Mike Vescera; until 2017 when the former Auras singer Gui Oliver, joined the band and Landfall began writing songs that would eventually become their first album released by Frontiers Records, “The Turning Point”.
As a songwriter, Oliver had previously written songs for several artists from the label, including Jimi Jamison, Bobby Kimball, Fergie Frederiksen, and Issa.
