3.5 stars - solid melodic rock debut (reissued) September 9, 2009
Justin Gaines (Northern Virginia)
Originally released in 1997, Lint was debut album from Swedish melodic rockers House of Shakira. The band takes a somewhat quirky approach (They named their album Lint and have songs like "Elephant Gun") to the traditional AOR sound, but it's pretty effective and very catchy. There's an obvious Journey and Styx influence to House of Shakira's sound, especially in the vocal area. The lead vocals are clean and powerful, and the album relies heavily on background vocal harmonies. When it works, the result is some great songs. Sometimes the songs are just a bit too weird to work though.
They're not quite on the same level as Treat or Europe, but House of Shakira is still a pretty enjoyable melodic rock band, and they consistently release high quality albums. Lint is a very solid album, but if you're new to the band I'd recommend starting with a compilation like Best of 2 or beginning with one of their newer releases and working backwards.
Edition Notes: Lion Music reissued Lint in 2005, adding a pair of bonus tracks - "On the F Green" and "Heroes." I'm not sure if the album has been remastered, but it sounds like that's possible.
