Products similar to Dominate - Adagio
Do You Like Rock Music? - British Sea Power
Beautiful sound, the soundtrack to our landscape, laced with English eccentricity
too few to mention
Disturbing The Peace - Alcatrazz
Something for Steve Vai completists.
Pointlessly below average hair metal.
D'elles - Celine Dion
Pop - Dance Pop - 2007
Det Som Engang Var - Burzum
Classic tortured black metal.
Experiments in ambience are largely dull.
Deceptive Awareness - Ablaze In Hatred

An interesting concept performed by veterans of the business.
No one gets to strut their stuff apart from the vocalist, who harks back to the seventies.
