Profile 2econd Way is the name of the band, that was founded in Germany and released a 6 track EP in 2000. It came out without any label as a private pressing and was pressed in very limited quantities. Nowadays it’s almot impossible to find it. The quality of the songs is amazing started with the opener “Take Care” that comes along with great keyboards and a very memorable chorus that immediately brings a mix between Lava and Toto,  “Lady Like You” combines rocking guitar riffs with swirling keyboard arrangements and totally sounds like Toto at their “Fahrenheit”-album.

Another highlight “Die For Another Life” has some atmospheric keyboards on offer reminds of Face why Face, while the catchy “Everybody Knows” sounds like a forgotten song from Far Corporation’s sessions to their legendary debut album! Then “Warrios Of The Light” is a great uptempo AOR / melodicrock tune, it comes along with great guitar riffs and another full blown chorus reminds a lot of the legendary Tyketto debut – even lead singer Berdn Schneider sounds a little bit like Danny Vaughn here!
