Profile This indie release from Rockwerk records and is super hard to find nowdays even here in Germany. Musically Element Five play pure AOR with good guitar work, nice backing vocals and catchy songs. Production and sound are not over the tiop but solid and pretty nice for an indie release without any big budget.

If you like indie AOR bands like Seasons in Color, Fahrenheit, Decoy, Sydney and Glasshouse , you should enjoy this rarity as it comes along in exactly that driection. The opener for example , “Illusion” immediately brings Seasons in Color influences as it has some fluffy keys and tasty guiatr licks on offer and in the middle of the song there appears a cool saxophone solo.
