Profile Hard rock band formed in 1988 released two albums and one EP. Their first record released in 1988 is close to metal style but the rest are more hard rock. Here we have the second hard rockin’ offering from Alyze, and a special one it is. This follow-up to the excellent “Playin’ With Desire” released in 1992.

The opener is a great hard rock song with brilling guitar work, very sharp and very distinct… The second track is also good, but it could be better if not for the vocals. “She is so fine” is an awesome glam song with catchy hooks which clearly stands out among the rest of the melodic hard rock tracks. It is probebly the best song on the record.

The boys come back for a second round of hair metal bliss that picks up right where “Playin” left off. The same great vocals, and the same great musicianship that will appeal to fans of XYZ, Dokken, Lillian Axe, Hurricane, Heaven’s Edge, “Dog Eat Dog” era Warrant, and GREAT hard rock in general.
