69 Eyes X

2012, Some 22 years later after forming, in the world without The Ramones or Type 0 Negative, The 69 Eyes release their 10th studio album. To celebrate their long existence, the band has decided to name the album as Roman tenth, X. It also has ten songs. In the world where albums mattered, the 10th album of The Rolling Stones was EXILE ON MAIN ST. And indeed X is also a turning point for The 69 Eyes. It clearly starts something new. Once again it sounds completely fresh and ambitious. It's more melodic than its predecessor, Hollywood-made glam metallic BACK IN BLOOD. It's also the most catchy and hooky goth'n' roll you have ever heard - no wonder since the album's made under the supervision of the Swedish pop orientated production team called On The Verge. It takes The 69 Eyes' goth'n' roll sound back to their highlights decade ago of their albums like BLESSED BE and PARIS KILLS, yet rising the singer Jyrki's voice as the main statement of the record.
