 PLACE VENDOME Thunder In The Distance By Becky Dorsett, Houston Contributor Wednesday, January 8, 2014 @ 4:43 PM
Following his stint with the band UNISONIC, Kiske decided to go back once again to the PLACE VENDOME concept
with more melodic rock-oriented songs which, once again, have been selected by Perugino from outside writers, including
Magnus Karlsson (PRIMAL FEAR), Timo Tolkki (ex-STRATOVARIUS), Alessandro Del Vecchio (HARDLINE), Roberto Tiranti
and Andrea Cantarelli (LABYRINTH, A PERFECT DAY), Tommy Denander (RADIOACTIVE), Sören Kronqvist (SUNSTORM, ISSA),
and Brett Jones. Between the amazing writers and the notable and amazing Dennis Ward producing PLACE
VENDOME’s third CD, Thunder In The Distance is stronger and seems more heartfelt.
Out of all the tracks "Power of Music" is my absolute favorite. This is a CD that you can listen to over
and over again and not get tired of listening or feel like you need to change it to something else.
Thunder in the Distance is a strong CD and as always the strong vocals of Kiske and the outstanding
musicianship of the others keeps you listening to see what the next song is going to be like.
4.5 Out Of 5.0

There are 13 total tracks on this CD and each one could stand alone, not a single “filler” song on this CD. Some of the
edgier songs are "Broken Wings", "Lost In Paradise", "Fragile Ground" and the title track "Thunder in
the Distance". Yet these are still tempered with a crisp melody and rinse of keyboards. On the more AOR side of
things, "Break Out", "It Can't Rain Forever", "Hold Your Love" and "Power of Music" tones
things back a bit more.
